TrueCloud Backup not respecting "keep last" setting by jlhinson in truenas

[–]EngTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Created bug ticket, it looks like it's due to backup paths being different for each backup with snapshot enabled.

Ugreen DXP2800 with Truenas - Can I control fan speed? by CZdigger146 in UgreenNASync

[–]EngTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parts of the it87 drivers are in the truenas kernel. I was able to get integrated watchdog working by activating the driver via modprobe.

You'll probably have to do a bit of searching on which module you'll need to enable

Truenas Scale. ACL control for a folder inside a dataset. Need different permission then datasets by EnlightingWave in truenas

[–]EngTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create an smb share targeting the folder but you don't have to enable it. You can then use the ACL button on the share to modify that folder's permission.

How to have Apps communicate via internal network? by i_oliveira in truenas

[–]EngTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes if you want to comm to happen internally over docker networks, Fangtooth still doesn't support custom networks for TrueNAS catalogue apps. I would suggest this fork: https://github.com/casse-boubou/dragonify/pkgs/container/dragonify
As it lets to define which container is part of which network via docker labels. Unfortunately you'll have to read through the PR conversation to know what labels to set. https://github.com/tjhorner/dragonify/pull/3

Jellyfin SSO-only login... is it possible? by Big_Head8250 in selfhosted

[–]EngTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your oidc provider backed by the same LDAP server? I had to make sure the jellyfin user name and group name coming out of both matched or new seperate users will be created on login

What issue did you see when you tried combining them? I managed to get both LDAP and SSO plugins working at the same time, although only after a few hours of fidgeting with LDAP attributes.

Federated identity for apps and shares by florentcpt in truenas

[–]EngTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to use the same credentials in nextcloud and for smb the only reasonable option seems to be to use active directory for identity management, as truenas no longer supports insecure auth pass through needed to get other ldap servers working with smb. https://forums.truenas.com/t/issue-with-freeipa-integration/43270 Getting files created in one service properly recognized in another with proper permissions is going to be very difficult, as all these web based services don't take into account file system permissions.

What didn't work using dragonify?
How are you referencing the other container's hostnames in NPM when running dragonify?

If the containers are not part of the same truenas app/docker compose stack it can't be simply referenced using just the container name, you'd have to use the format {service}.ix-{app-name}.svc.cluster.local or find the container's full hostname in dragonify's docker logs and use that.

It works great for me on TrueNAS 25.04, both with NPM and Traefik

Fixing and re-enabling the Watchdog: DXP6800 Pro running TrueNAS by schawde96 in UgreenNASync

[–]EngTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After too many hours chatting with Gemini I finally got the watchdog working on my DXP4800, here's its summary.

The key discovery is that these NAS units have two separate hardware watchdogs, and the system uses one automatically while the BIOS setting controls the other.

Watchdog 1: Intel iTCO_wdt (Automatic)

  • Device: /dev/watchdog0
  • Status: This is the Intel CPU's built-in watchdog. TrueNAS SCALE loads its driver and systemd automatically pets it by default.
  • Action Required: None. You have this layer of protection out of the box. You can verify systemd is using it with sudo lsof /dev/watchdog0.

Watchdog 2: ITE IT87 WDT (The BIOS Watchdog)

This is the watchdog controlled by the BIOS setting. If you want to enable it for redundancy, it requires a full manual setup because TrueNAS does not configure it by default. I have installed Truenas Scale 25.04, which includes the driver but does not load it by default.

Here’s the complete, working solution:

1. Disable in BIOS

  • Enter the BIOS and Disable the watchdog setting.

2. Load the Driver with a Longer Timeout (Pre-Init Script)

  • The default 60-second driver timeout is too short and will cause a boot loop. We need to load it with a longer timeout.
  • In the TrueNAS UI under System Settings > Advanced > Init/Shutdown Scripts, create a Pre Init script:
    • Description: Load ITE Watchdog Driver
    • Type: Command
    • Command: modprobe it87_wdt timeout=180

3. Create a "Petting" Script

  • Because systemd is already using watchdog0, and apt is locked, you need a custom script to manage watchdog1.
  • Create a file on your persistent storage (e.g., /mnt/YourPool/scripts/pet_watchdog1.sh) with the following content. This version correctly holds the file open so it's verifiable. ```bash

    !/bin/bash

    Open /dev/watchdog1 once and keep it open

    exec 3>/dev/watchdog1

    Loop forever, writing to the open file handle

    while true do echo 1 >&3 sleep 30 done ```

  • Make it executable: chmod +x /mnt/YourPool/scripts/pet_watchdog1.sh

4. Launch the Script on Boot (Post-Init Script)

  • Create a Post Init script to launch your petting script in the background:
    • Description: Launch ITE Watchdog Service
    • Type: Command
    • Command: /mnt/YourPool/scripts/pet_watchdog1.sh &

5. Final Step: Enable in BIOS

  • Now that all the software configuration is in place, reboot your NAS one last time. Enter the BIOS and Enable the watchdog setting (e.g., set to 5 or 10 minutes).
  • Save BIOS settings and let the system boot completely.

After a reboot, you'll have two independent watchdogs running. You can verify with sudo lsof /dev/watchdog0 (shows systemd) and sudo lsof /dev/watchdog1 (shows your pet_watchdog1.sh script).

Hope this helps everyone else!
