🏠 Welcome to MatyWaky docs

This site is a structured knowledge base that I maintain to support my work as a systems administrator. It brings together practical notes, configurations, troubleshooting steps, and repeatable procedures used both in professional environments and in my home lab. The goal is to keep information organized, reliable, and easy to revisit when working with Linux systems, networks, and infrastructure services.

The documentation reflects a methodical approach to system administration: understanding how components behave, maintaining clarity in configuration, and solving issues based on root‑cause analysis rather than temporary fixes. Many entries originate from real operational scenarios, lab experiments, or recurring administrative tasks that benefit from having a clear reference.
