That sounds like a great idea.
At the moment I am using Openmediavault as a VM within proxmox - I pass my HDDs through to this VM. Openmediavault let’s me do all the stuff I want to: Share folders via SSH, NFS and raid-management.
Do you know if I can do the same with proxmox directly? Do you maybe have a link where this way is described in detail?
Yes, ukraine should lose some more soldiers to take a cut out of russia, to really show them. /s
Damn, this position at the sideline, rooting for our team, surley is comfortable.
I heard rumours that there was a giant animal involved in the making of Linus Torvalds. So please refer to him as GNU/Linus, or GNU+Linus.
Yes, convenience is the main reason people like you use discord. But there are many reasons against using it and I am sure you know all of them, so no need for a discussion.
Just wanted to highlight: you are part of the discord problem.
“Hop on the discord server”… Boooo. What happened to the good old Forum. Searchable and all.
Follow me on instagram for more great criticism.
Lemmy interpreted the * as something cursive. I try to edit it like I mean it.
Sorry to hear, I feel you:
I wanted to delete all .m3u-files in my music collection when I learned:
find ./ -name "*.m3u" -delete -> this would have been the right way, all .m3u in the current folder would have been deleted.
find ./ -delete -name "*.m3u" -> WRONG, this just deletes the current folder and everything in it.
Who would have known, that the position of -delete actually matters.
I bought a used Synology before knowing more about NAS alternatives. I hated every minute with it… Because it was a bit older, security updates could stop anytime. And using the proprietary OS felt even more unsave. Who knows what backdoors are build in there? I sold it after I found out that there is no way to install a custom OS or any alternative to the proprietary version.
Edit: found a picture of it:
I am a total beginner in this regard, but maybe maybe this could help you:
Check out PBR - policy-based-routing. On OpenWRT there is an app for this task, vpn-policy-routing (together with luci-app-vpn-policy-routing for a GUI inside LuCi). This app helped me to route all traffic coming from my PiVPN to the WAN interface, instead of my commercial NordVPN. Now at home all my traffic goes to NordVPN and when I am not at home I can easily VPN into my home network.

Other than that, the OpenWRT Forum is very helpful, don’t hesitate to ask your questions there.
There seem to be many ways to reach the same goal:
I try to find the best way for me.
I understand that I can use a VM to run docker, but:
Wouldn’t make a LXC more sense than a VM with docker inside? And what are the advantages of running jellyfin in a container instead of a normal installation? The VM is already kind of a container, what benefits do I get from yet another container inside? I am curious to learn more!
Proxmox could be the perfect learning environment for docker, just make a new VM if I borg something. I will look into it, thanks. Just not for this specific project, Jellyfin on Debian sounds good for me.
The other comment made sense to me, why contain a container. But you are right, I will learn more about docker, it seems like a great tool.
Thank you for your confirmation with NFS. Just read about it yesterday, in search of an alternative to samba, what all the windows user seem to use.
That makes sense, docker is off the table.
Thank you for your answer. I maybe want to add some features in the future, like all those *arr- programs. Wouldn’t it be easier to have everything in one VM instead of many LXC?
If anyone stumbles accross this post, here is how I solved it for me:
PiVPN doesn’t need any special firewall-treatment in OpenWRT, just use port forwarding (Source zone: WAN, Destination: LAN, with the Port you chose, 51820 is the standard for wireguard)
A special problem I had: I used NordVPN on OpenWRT to tunnel all my traffic through there. When I connected the PiVPN, it didn’t work at first. I had to use something called PBR - Policy-Based-Routing to send all my traffic from the PiVPN to WAN. It was easy with the openWRT-app vpn-policy-routing plus luci-app-vpn-policy-routing
It’s great that it works for you! For me every recommendation of networkchuck that starts with ‘and its free! You just have to sign up for…’ is a pointer to search for ‘open source alternative for…’.
That is how I found out about a Raspberry Pi with pihole and piVPN installed on the same device, using this manual. Pihole blocks ads, with piVPN you can log into your home network using the wireguard protocol.
I thought it was easy to set up, but of course it depends heavily on the time you can and want to invest. So Twingate can be the right solution for you, but I am often impressed by the excelent free software solutions that are out there.
I just started to build something here! My setup so far: Raspberry Pi 4 running Home Assistant OS.
On the GPIO-Pins I have a Module sitting that goes with the name RPI-RF-MOD. Now the Home Assistant-Pi works as a CCU3 base station for all my homematic IP gadgets.
On Home assistant I use the add on Raspberrymatic to connect to different Gadgets (Power Plugs, Thermostats, Window-Sensors) which then again are introduced to home assistant with the help of HACS Homematic(IP) Local.
Now it’s working! I plan to automate my thermostats with the HACS Better Thermostat.
It was a lot of reading for a beginner like me. But with small steps and a lot of time everything is actually quite comfortable to reach. And most important: the devices can’t phone home, nothing is able to connect to the internet directly.
Dachte ich schon beim Schreiben. Hier wäre ein kleiner Bindestrich vielleicht nützlich gewesen.
Piwigo loocks great. How does it compare to Immich?
