His main interest in computing has always been networking. In the few time
|
|
left besides netfilter/iptables related work, he's writing obscure documents
|
|
like the UUCP over SSL HOWTO. Other kernel-related projects he has been
|
|
contributing are user mode linux and the international (crypto) kernel patch.

|
He has been working as an independent IT Consultant working on projects for
|
|
various companies ranging from banks to manufacturers of networking gear.

During the year 2001 he was living in Curitiba (Brazil), where he got
|
|
sponsored for his Linux related work by Conectiva Inc.
|
|
|
|
Starting with February 2002, Harald has been contracted part-time by
|
|
<a href="http://www.astaro.com/">Astaro AG</a>, who are sponsoring him for his
|

current netfilter/iptables work.

|
Aside from the Astaro sponsoring, he continues to work as a freelancing
|
|
kernel developer and network security consultant.
