I created a task in phab to be added to NDA ldap, so I can sign the NDA and get shell access: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T211996 One of the subtasks (from https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Volunteer_NDA#Privileged_LDAP_or_shell_a... ) on this is to get
[ ] At least one comment of support from a Wikimedia Foundation employee, explaining why it is a good idea to accept your request [ ] A comment of approval from one Wikimedia Foundation manager (usually the manager of an employee supporting you). [ ] (Have someone with access double-check which mediawiki.org account that the manager's Phabricator account is linked to, where the SUL account was created, and how it was created on that wiki.)
Can someone do this? If you need to see some qualifications I can try to get some code of mine to you from some old puppet stuff I've done and I can show you my github, where you can see some of my code. If I'm making a rookie mistake here and this type of access is not needed, let me know. I'm also sasheto +i on IRC #wikimedia-tech, so you can message me there too, I check it from time to time. alexander@vassilevski.com

You'll basically need to create a wikitech account (if you don't already have one) and convince one of the existing project admins (listed at https://tools.wmflabs.org/openstack-browser/project/maps) to add you. Please use Puppet instead of manually setting up servers by hand.

I have some free time this December and I could manually create the new vm's and replicate the configs/installs by hand on newly created Ubuntu 18 vm's ( after figuring out how the old ones are installed and configured and if given access, of course .. ).
Keep in mind that I'm new to wikimedia and don't know much about the infrastructure or procedures, so what do I need to do to be given access and volunteer to do this?

Yeah might be wise to at least reach out to en.wp and de.wp. Or maybe Tech News even ?
"Hey folks, this might not work in the future" could be reason enough to include it in Tech News, yes.
Included inhttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2018/51 which is going out to the wikis on Monday.
