 we can't toggle accept_ra in for forwarding module because ipv6
 forwarding setting is system-wide not per-interface. so probably we
 should do it in dhcp6c

+After much neglect followed by some cursing, liminix now builds with
+nixpkgs-unstable, and I can get back to figuring out what I was doing
+
+It looks like I'd finished making it ship logs to victorialogs, but maybe
+we should think about where victorialogs is hosted because the log server
+shouldn't be depending on the router to get an IP address if the router
+is depending on the log server to work correctly
+
+admittedly the router doesn't (iirc) have a _hard_ dep on working logs,
+but if it's suffering in some way and this means that the victorialogs
+service isn't running either, then we don't have logs to diagnose the
+problem.
+
+So, loghost needs a static ip address, and to be able to answer
+local requests even without an upstream connection.
+
+It would be good if there were also a way to connect to it in such a
+situation that doesn't involve going out to the shed
+
+Also, the log streaming client probably wants to hardcode an ip address
+for loghost.telent.net
