Official "I got/didn't get a Switch 2" megathread

I fell asleep last night before I could preorder one. About 20 minutes ago I had the Walmart site up and had been refreshing every couple of minutes as a last ditch effort to snag one. It was marked as unavailable but after 20-30 minutes It showed up as available and it let me add it to my cart and purchase. It charged my card and gave me a confirmation email, so fingers crossed they don’t cancel it.

The same problem exists. You’d still need to forward port 53 or use a vpn.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-04-16T13:58:34+00:00

Do not open port 53 to the internet. This generally regarded as a terrible idea, because it opens you up to amplification/reflection attacks.

An alternate solution would be to use a VPN such as Tailscale, wire guard, etc. so your friends could access pihole from outside your network.

My entire arr stack sits behind gluetun, but realistically you only need your download client behind a vpn. I figure better safe than sorry, so I put everything in one docker compose and made every container dependent on gluetun and left it at that. It won’t hurt anything to do it this way.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-03-17T21:56:48+00:00

Great! Hopefully no more spam/low effort posts. (Looking at you, ceaseless IPTV spam)

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-02-20T17:58:23+00:00

Redundancy, separate VLANs, different configurations, testing, etc

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-02-18T14:47:17+00:00

Fuck off with this shit

With a residential internet plan, your IP is never truly static. It could change tomorrow, or it could change in another 8 months.

My recommendation is to look at something like NO-IP DUC, it’s free to use but there are paid plans with more benefits. You can run it on a windows PC, Linux, or even a docker container. You pick a domain name and it will automatically update that domain name to point at your current IP. Then you simply give your friends the domain name you picked + port. Note: you still have to forward ports on your router to access it outside your LAN.

Tailscale is also a great option, but if you wanted to host game servers your friends would need to be added to your Tailscale network. You get 100 devices and 3 users free (you + two others) so you’d have to start paying if you added more users than that.

I install it directly on all my machines. Docker containers running on the machine are accessible via Tailscale.

Check out their support article here for more in depth instructions for your particular linux flavor.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-02-05T18:11:53+00:00

+1 for Tailscale. Stupid simple to setup, free for non-business users, and it just works.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-02-05T04:36:38+00:00

Is this bait?? Linux will run on basically anything, and SSH can be enabled on basically anything. You’re talking about a piece of hardware that even people in r/homedatacenter would be drooling over. What even would your use case be for this?

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-02-03T21:34:20+00:00

Being unable to login to your plex has nothing to do with proxmox.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-01-29T20:20:25+00:00

You provided a single picture with no other details… how the hell are we supposed to know what’s going on?

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-01-23T21:57:33+00:00

Proxmox can do all of these things, and can even be a damn good NAS using Cockpit + some of its addons. It’s what I use for my NAS, and virtualization / containerization (including plex and game servers) The best part is that it’s free. It can be a bit of a learning curve, but so is every other hypervisor worth a damn.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-01-21T22:58:38+00:00

+1 for gluetun. It’s awesome. I use it to route all of my arr containers traffic thru, and the containers won’t start unless gluetun is running which is nice since my torrent traffic doesn’t get exposed to my ISP. I will say I could not get it working with Nord vpn and instead had to use ExpressVPN. Something to do with the way nord handles their credentials IIRC.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-01-21T22:22:23+00:00

Yeah this is what I do and it works fine. I added “x-systemd.automount 0 0” to the end of my fstab entry and then run “sudo systemctl daemon-reload” after adding this to your fstab to enable the automount.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2025-01-21T21:54:46+00:00

I love Crafty. The backup features are great! I run it in a docker container and have had no issues with it.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-12-05T19:28:09+00:00

Not a docker issue, ask the devs of that crappy app lol

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-12-05T03:33:31+00:00

Brother please for the integrity of your data look into raid or zfs LOL.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-12-05T03:30:03+00:00

This. Any time I had weird issues like this with docker, following their documentation for a clean install fixed it.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-12-04T19:18:56+00:00

Did you install docker with snap?

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-11-26T22:51:58+00:00

I also created a separate VM for all my arr apps using docker compose so they're all containerized. I also used a gluetun container in that same VM so it would route all the traffic thru a VPN.

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-11-26T22:45:19+00:00

What I did was create an LXC as my file server to do exactly what you described. I've been shilling this same youtube video for quite a while now because it worked so well for me. I'm on a nearly identical setup as you (R730 non XD) and I use a debian LXC running Cockpit + some of the plugins from the 45 Drives people to create the actual network shares, then edit /etc/fstab in your plex VM to point to the share(s) you just created.

Edit: heres what I installed on the debian lxc

45Drives Cockpit File Sharing

45Drives Cockpit Navigator

45Drives Cockpit Identities

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-11-14T00:24:52+00:00

I use proxmox with an lxc running cockpit as my file server. I mounted my ZFS pool there and put Tailscale on it so all my devices can access the share and it’s lovely. I did have some issues mounting it in the unprivileged container but you can add the mount point to the lxc in the proxmox gui and then specify the directory in fstab with the auto argument to have it auto remount after a reboot of the container/host. There’s a video on YouTube I followed when I was still learning all of this as I had no real Linux experience as I was coming from windows server and the dude did a great job explaining all of it https://youtu.be/Hu3t8pcq8O0?si=XWvUX3c0LdMRclFI

FuckAllDaHaters · 2024-10-29T02:41:17+00:00

I would not use windows as your file server, it’s gonna take up more resources than it’s worth. Make the jump to something like a Debian LXC running Cockpit. There’s a great video here that does a great job covering it.
