I backup with kopia from one disk to another. Also having another backup to backblaze B2 cloud. Both backups are incremental and encrypted, you choose how many (daily, weekly, monthly,…) backups to keep. I have debian OS on DIY PC with OMV installed and Im happy with it
I don’t need, but wasn’t sure am I using full capacity of what I’m paying for and want to learn more. This is my hobby, I enjoy setting up things more than using the server lol edit: and yeah feels like CPU capped
I want to use glueten container, but I’m flexible about everything else. I can try openVPN server, but not sure what AES128 means (I know its some kind of encryption, but don’t know how to use that in my case). There are many different servers to chose, Ill try few with UDP openVPN. thanks
My TV is not even smart. I use 40$ xiaomi tv stick (android 1080p). Its powered from USB port on tv and connects via wifi. Its not the fastest device, but it works just fine Edit: not sure about price anymore, seems like its more like 50$ now, but still cheap IMO
I have a home server with tech illiterate users (Tailscale/VPN won’t be a solution for them), and I’ve been setting up a little blog to keep them updated about content and status. I had an idea of setting up a server status page that displayed the running state of various docker containers so they could easily see if...
I use Radarr and Sonarr for my movies/shows, and Spotify for music, but I do know there’s another *arr app for that. The question is, is it worth setting up and how easy is it to discover new/similar music as opposed to Spotify, given that Spotify isn’t expensive at all. And how do you fellow crewmen go about it?
I would rate radarr/sonarr with 10/10 and lidar 5/10. I dont think its bad, its probably too early stage or too hard to accomplish with music what radarr/sonarr can do with movies/shows. There are many artists/albums that dont exist in lidarr database and sometimes bad imports happen with wrong tracks. Yeah, and there is no jellyseer for music. I dont use it much, but I love it
Not expert, but basically you should port forward wireguard port 51820 to your server, install wireguard server, create client(s) and load QR code (or config) on android/laptop and you are set. Pi hole DNS and everything else should work just like when you are on home wifi.
You can leave your CF for public access, but do you really need PF 80 and 443 if you are using CF tunnels? (I thought you dont, but I never used CF. Feels like its more safe to hve CF tunnels if you dont need to PF, but you have a middle man you have to trust)
Hy everyone, I have a PiHole instance running on my home server, and I changed my router (Fritz box) DNS in order to use my PiHole. Everything runs great....
Afaik there is no primary and secondary, you cant tell which one to use. Its best to have 2 piholes, but having 2nd DNS set to nextdns or something like that should be fine if you cant run 2 instances, probably not the best setup tho
So I have a TrueNAS server set up at home, and it would be cool to have access to it at all times. I currently have Syncthing set up to access and back up my most essential files on my phone and laptop, but it would be nice to be able to access all the … legally obtained files I have stored there wherever I go. I looked into...
I use Wireguard VPN with DuckDNS. No need to buy a domain, I just made a name for local use like nextcloud.rudee.com. Even though domains are not expensive (can be 10-20$ a year, but there are also free otions like rudeenextcloud.duckdns.org). You might need reversy proxy like Nginx Proxy Manager unless you want to type IP:PORT

Both deals sound amazing to me, but get 8GB or prepare for RAM upgrade. 4GB could be enough for what you listed there, but you might find more services to run in the near future 🤪
I think those tiny PCs are perfect if you dont need more SATA ports. Its hard to beat them with that low price
Just to add my experience about PSU efficiency: for low power consumption (20-50W) you need PSU rated for minimum power your system needs. So if you are idling at 30W on 700W PSU your efficiency will be super bad because that PSU was made for higher loads and you are using <10%. No matter what PSU class you choose, efficiency will be better if your usage is at 40-70% of PSU max power. This is based on testing multiple desktop ATX PSUs for my small homelab
Leave Servarr as last thing to setup because it requires many services to work together and even small mistake in config will make it not work. Its not hard, but it will be easier after you learn how to setup jellyfin or audiobookshelf.
I have no experience with your hardware, but after you install docker and docker-compose get Portainer and get familiar with docker compose. Portainer is simple gui that lets you manage all containers.
So for example, you get docker-compose example for jellyfin, eddit PUID, GUID, path to your library folder, copy that in Portainer Stacks, hit deploy and BAM! Your jellyfin is available on localhost:8096
You might face many issues in the begining, but dont give up, its getting more and more easy over time. I still think Im a noob, but have no problems with my 40ish containers running on poor home server 😉. Dont forget this community is awesome and helpfull
I use jellyseer to grab movies and shows, there is also overseer for plex. I dont think you can run that in kodi, but looks like better approch to me anyway. There might be more options that Im not aware of
I have recently repurposed and old Hp Stream to a home server and successfully run Immich. I really like it and even a small 500GB disk is way more than the 15GB Google offers....
Backblaze B2 is 6$ a month for 1TB and first 10GB is free. You pay proportionally (it cost me 2-3$ for last 7-8 months for 20-150 GB that accumulated over time). Keep in mind that you will spend more if you download backup, but you should use cloud backup as last resort anyway. I backup to 2nd local disk and also to B2 daily with Kopia. Didnt need backup fortunately, downloading from B2 small files ocasionally just for testing setup
Its not just cheaper, I love it because I dont have to deal with Gshit company
Joplin alternative?
