I’m patiently (cf impatiently) awaiting the arrival of an Aoostar WTR Pro and components to build my first NAS and full Arr stack for Linux ISO’s.
I completed a proof of concept and learning a month ago on a Pi 5, and I can’t wait to get my hands dirty with something more real!
I’ll take any advice anyone throws my way :D and thanks to this community for the learning and inspiration since I joined Lemmy!
I use Mend Renovate to keep up with the latest and greatest container images in my private repo.
I also finally set up Lemmy on my home lab, as well as moving Authelia from Docker to bare metal.
Other than that, I’ve been struggling to find any other self-hosted apps that would actually be useful to me.
Finally setup Synology surveillance station and got my local cameras all hooked in with motion events. Very swish.
Attempted and failed to set up some sort of fail2ban between my Cloudflared container and my website I host at home.
Yesterday i managed to successfully host a simple html safely (its more of a network test)
The path is nginx->openwrt->router to internet
Now i only need to:
and then i can throw everything i want on it :D
a Plex server.
Total noob to Docker (desktop for windows) and I'm just trying to figure out how (and where) to add a config to my Navidrome image or change lines on the image itself, to point it to my music library and create admin login credentials (ಥ﹏ಥ) If I can accomplish that then I eventually want to try Immich or NextCloud afterward.
I want to switch to Linux but I'm not sure where to start! I want to
I don't know if any of those factors impose restrictions due to software/hardware differences (or if that even makes a difference), but I want to move over everything I can into a linux environment
I've been hosting Emby forever (and the requisite software to acquire content 😉).
Recently I added Nextcloud to facilitate cutting several Google products out of my life. Combined with a few FOSS apps, it's currently doing the job of Drive (storage) and Keep (notes), and I'm planning to move my contacts and calendar this week.
I'm doing that as well (mostly done except some tinkering and optimizations). It's my third time setting up nextcloud, but this time it's for real.
Added extra disks to TrueNAS, got Seafile up and running in a Proxmox VM. Now I'm about to start fiddling with SAS to 4x Sata to get the front drive bays working. Keepin' busy!
I wrote myself a new python script for a palworld server I run. Wanted to figure out a generic way to track active connections without running something in front of the daemon. That's easy to do for TCP, but since UDP has no concept of an established connection, the regular tools wouldn't work. Realized I could use conntrack to get the linux firewalls connection tracking data, which works outside of tcp/udp concepts and maintains its own active connection state based on timeouts, which is what I was gonna do anyways. Now I can issue SIGSTOP/SIGCONT to keep buildings from degrading on the server when nobody's online to deal with it, along with saving the cpu resources of an empty game server. Rather niche project, but I figured I'd publish it anyways. https://github.com/sugoidogo/pausepal
Looking to install Immich, BitDefender Password Manager and YouTube downloader on the NAS this week.
