Welcome to my blog!

Welcome to my little personal blog and homepage Micski’s Blog and Homepage, where I publish my notes, howtos and articles about FreeBSD, system administration, photography and other interests of mine, such as the legendary Cerwin-Vega brand and the AL-1002, in a read friendly and database driven format for myself and others to use and benefit from.

Wonderful Copenhagen.

The name Micski comes from the good old days, when Internet was more commonly used for personal websites and direct communication with nicknames and domain names. My real name is Mic and I live in Copenhagen. Copenhagen is the capital city of Denmark. Denmark is a country and is a part of Scandinavia and Europe. There are many interesting countries and cities in Europe, and they all have their cultural specialities, but I love the history, nature, seasons, people, culture, peace and life here in Denmark.

Electronics engineering.

Already very familiar with basic mechanics, electronics, personal computers and software programming at an early age, I knew, I wanted to work somewhere in these fields. I initially studied basic mathematics, physics, chemistry and technical design at the technical institute and did projects and documentation in these fields. During my studies and personal development, I discovered, that I was better fit to transfer my studies to electronics engineering at the university.

I studied electronics engineering at the university, before I began my career in the information technology industry. I studied and worked on larger projects in advanced linear algebra, calculus and differential equations, advanced analog design, digital design, digital signal processing, high-frequency cirquits, adaptive filters, signal transformation and system design, assembler programming, object oriented programming, file systems and operating systems. I have written advanced reports and documentation for each project.

System administration.

Over the years, I have specialized in system administration of FreeBSD, UNIX and Linux based servers, desktop computers, networks and systems as I worked my way up through the struggles and titles from student assistant to frontdesk supporter, backoffice supporter, incident manager and system administrator. This also means, that I primarily use open source software professionally as well as personally.

I have many years of experience from working with different clients and employers, that range from small private businesses to large Internet service providers. I have developed customer relation and process management systems, recovered companies from devastating data loss and earned the highest awards in customer service. I am highly experienced in the FreeBSD and Ubuntu operating systems. I am a passionate FreeBSD enthusiast and have been using FreeBSD as my daily driver for many years.

By no means do I claim to be a know-all FreeBSD expert nor a succesful information technology billionaire. FreeBSD, and information technology in general, are ever-evolving projects and areas of knowledge with much to learn and many projects to take on. I have the highest respect for the ever changing systems and software, that is developed and maintained by communities of amazing people. And thus, I try to remain a humble student.

Let’s get in touch!

If you are new to FreeBSD, or are a passionate FreeBSD enthusiast, I would love to hear from you and learn more about your projects and experiences. If you are in need of professional assistance or would like to discuss a project with me, feel free to contact me via email to and let’s meet for a nice cup of coffee – live or online. If you have any questions, or simply wish to get in touch with me, then feel free to contact me as well. I greatly appreciate any contributions, feedback, queries and personal messages.
