I once had a back-end system (now decommissioned) which only I used, so
I was free to name the hosts properly. There were three packet sniffers
called cerberus{1,2,3}, a console for monitoring a hundred hosts named
argus and a two-NICed passthrough named janus.
And the hundred were hydra001-100?
Proof positive that I'm a product of the post-literate educational system in
the U.S. If I had 100 Hydra, the console would be named fury and the
passthrough would be named shield[1].
