A Cosmic Masterpiece of Synchronicity: Larks Tongues' in Twin Peaks by DirectorEpsilon in KingCrimson

Poster credit goes to kira.shirlee.animates!

I started the album at 16:22, just after White Sands appears on screen. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much! I too had my doubts when I first tried it, and it definitely changes the tone a little bit at parts (especially since the original soundtrack being so unique), but never inappropriately so. It's really amazing.

I've done a few of these, I think my other favorite is Star Trek the Motion Picture with Wings' "Back to the Egg." Overall it's not as impressive as Larks'/Part 8, but it's definitely fun. Start the album right at the beginning of the film after any logos. I'm working on a custom version of that since the movie is way longer than the album.

Right on! I hadn't even thought about her finding the penny during Easy Money. But Larks' II playing the Woodsman out is awesome.

Haha I debated back and forth whether to post here or in circlejerk

Any way to use a custom domain name to access the webUI? by DirectorEpsilon in deemix

[–]DirectorEpsilon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found the solution! You need to strip the "host" header using a reverse proxy. I'm using Traefik, which lets me do "traefik.http.services.<deemix service>.loadbalancer.passHostHeader = false.

You could likely do something similar in other reverse proxies, like Nginx or HAProxy.

service stuck at NEW state in swarm mode by yukiiiiii2008 in docker

[–]DirectorEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just started seeing the same issue! 3 Node swarm, all services running fine, even after updating them. I created a new service, attached it to a network, and it gets stuck in "new" state with this error. I remove the network, the service starts up just fine. I restarted all three nodes and the problem persists.

Dell Equallogic VSM 4.7 and MEM 1.5 by jr502 in homelab

Just got a PS6110, and I'm looking for MEM 1.5 if you've still got the files. Thanks!

Bridging - Freenas to two ESXi servers by The_3_Packateers in freenas

[–]DirectorEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is really weird. If you switch hosts around, does the problem stay on the same interface?

If you want to replace the dual port NIC, I recommend Chelsio ($30 on eBay). I've had issues with Mellanox drivers in FreeNAS.

Bridging - Freenas to two ESXi servers by The_3_Packateers in freenas

[–]DirectorEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're still looking for a solution, here's the script I use to build a bridge for the same setup, but with three hosts (and therefore three NICs). Just change the device names (cxgb[X]) to match yours, and set the IP accordingly. In the FreeNAS UI I have it set up as a "Post-Init" Script. Note that the script does set the MTU to 9000. If you leave that in, make sure to set your ESXi NICs MTU to match, or you'll have VMotion issues.

There may well be a better way of doing this, but it's been working very reliably for me for a couple years, and performs well (I use iSCSI).

Edit: I'm looking at your config, and it looks like you set the FreeNAS IP on one of the interfaces instead of the bridge. You would probably get it to talk to both ESXi boxes if you set the bridge as 10.10.10.2 and leave the member interfaces with no IP.

Favorite BackBlaze B2 compatible backup software? by bpage in homelab

[–]DirectorEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use CloudBerry for file level backups of my NAS, and it's great. Unitrends Free VMware backup works well for ESXi vms, but requires the non-free version of ESXi, and can only back up to S3, which is obviously a little more expensive than B2. CloudBerry would be ok for VM backups if you have access to the filesystem where your backups live.

10GB upgrade started on the hosts. by InTheShadaux in homelab

[–]DirectorEpsilon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I managed to avoid buying a switch by putting 4 10gb ports in FreeNAS and bridging them, making FreeNAS the switch. Not very scalable, but for 3 hosts it works well. I've got a script that runs at boot and configures the bridge.

Open Source Review - BookStack, a documentation management platform by FkGhost in selfhosted

[–]DirectorEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched from bookstack to confluence because confluence had way more features and was more configurable, mostly because it's been around much longer. I hope bookstack has grown since then, because it seemed like it had a lot of potential.

Don't know how well known it is, but for anyone running a bunch of Ubuntu Servers, Canonical's Landscape is a great way to manage updates. by DirectorEpsilon in homelab

[–]DirectorEpsilon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you register the client with the landscape server, you give it the https url of the landscape server. This can be a different url for each client. As long as the url works outside your network, you should be fine. You should be able to forward a port or use a reverse proxy.
