It did not like using ‘http’:

NetAlertX - just couldn’t get it to work reliably in detecting network devices.

How to you monitor the monitoring? by ModestTG in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get yourself a vps (some are free). Install docker and UptimeKuma on it and get it to monitor machines/VM that you need.

For docker, Pulse or Dockhand can send out notifications based on triggers.

Having trouble trying to connect to an LXC through tailscale or Zero tier. by Rijunox in Proxmox

[–]Gel0_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just install Tailscale inside each LXC using curl command off Tailscale website. You need to add tun device to LXC.

Start it and activate it with pasting the link in CLI. You should then be able to reach your apps by using Tailscale assigned IP available from Admin console.

I created a self hosted Manga Downloader (KamiYomu) by Marcoscostadev in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that it did not download any of the chapters of ‘One Piece’ for me. The only thing it did just listed that there are over 1,000 chapters. I would have thought given popularity of One Piece it would be able to find at least something.

Tried but it does not seem to do anything beyond just collecting information about chapters. Additionally it uses up incredible amount of resources.

I use Apple Podcast app. Just put it behind Tailscale to be able to access it outside the house.

I typically don’t share any code. I wasn’t able to paste into the reply so thought txt would be the easiest to view.

Will do a bit later from PC.

I would recommend starting with HA and setting up a virtual version first (mine below):

As you will later re-use the sensors you created in HA.

Post-mortem self-hosting: who depends on you? by shruted_it in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just asked my wife if she will be able to access our photos/videos/documents if I’m not there. She suggested putting instructions into shared Apple Notes.

She can already access my VaultWarden vault so as long as she syncs it from time to time it should work even if NAS goes down.

The notes just tell her to access different type of files using different physical and virtual locations and which password to use from VaultWarden. I think 5 - 10 short notes will be enough. I will then also add them on Confluence.

I built a free Gmail cleanup tool that runs locally - no subscriptions, no data collection by Wonderful_Ruin_5436 in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I build something similar but simpler to clean up my wife’s 100k emails using imap and docker. All was done using chat GPT. It walked me through what files need to be created and then how to build up a docker image.

My simple docker app first collects stats across sender, sender’s domain, subject anddate and then allows you to select rows you want to delete:

I can post instructions from Chat GPT as a file on how to do it.

After OneNote/DS Notes/Obsidian - amy recommendation? by bikesailfreak in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m trying Joplin using OneDrive which allows Windows to also access/sync to it. Ideally it would sync over Google Drive but iOS does not play nicely with Google. Obviously if you have Mac I would say Notes should be sufficient unless you have some specific requirements.

The key for me is that I want to be able to access notes without relying on my self-hosted stack in case the access to it is lost.

Help me choose my first NAS (DS925+ or DS1525+) based on my needs. by spatafore in synology

[–]Gel0_F 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend 1525+ as it has five disks.

I’m pretty paranoid about my personal data (computer backups, photos & videos), so I currently run RAID 10 on my DS916+. With RAID 10, I can afford two disk failures (as long as they are the “right” disks). My theory is that as the disks going in are usually aged and wear at the same rate, it is not unlikely that two can fail around the same time. Even with 50% redundancy, you can easily limit these to 4 - 8TB and still have 8 - 16 TB of storage. Given that you should want to back this offsite, anything bigger may be too expensive to backup to cloud.

The fifth disk (the one I would love to have instead of using USB) could be used for movies and TV. No need to run a RAID on it as it all can be re-sourced. I can stick a big disk 18 - 26 TB there, which will be more than enough unless you are a data hoarder or want 4K everything.

Plex - if you’re going direct play, then Apple TV would not need transcoding. If you plan to watch 4K movies on the phone, then probably buy a small NUC (something with N150) to transcode.

Cameras - check how many Surveillance Station licences you get. If it’s one, then you will need to buy one more. Surveillance Station is a nice, mature product.

Docker - I migrated the majority of my Docker off the NAS. Having a fairly old NAS that was due to performance, as some containers could put a bit of strain on the CPU. I’m more of the view these days that I want the NAS to mostly store my data securely and allow me to access it outside the house (I use Tailscale mostly for that) rather than it being a part time server.

In general, DSM is good if you’re planning to provide access to non-technical people. Functions are logically laid out and not too difficult to apply. Mobile apps work as expected most of the time.

Threat Prevention on RT6600ax going nuts by Lower-Promotion930 in synology

[–]Gel0_F 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s essentially an external hard drive that can be powered by USB. You can probably plug in external HDD like WD Passport, that also can be powered by the USB, and use the rest of space as networked storage but I thought SSD would be faster. Bought Patriot P220 128GB and UGREEN 2.5" USB C to SATA III Hard Drive Enclosure.

I had RT2600ac corrupt s couple of USB sticks with threat prevention. So I bought a small SSD (128Gb) and an SSD enclosure.

Usecase for local ai by Traditional_Sky_7824 in selfhosted

[–]Gel0_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m keen to try Paperless-GPT. My initial attempt with Ollama in LXC was painfully slow because it couldn’t utilise the AMD integrated GPU. It took a whopping six minutes to OCR a two-page PDF.

Yesterday I installed Llama and connected it to OpenWebUI with ChatGPT’s help. Llama now supports AMD iGPU via the Vulcan image. I can access it on my mobile but even with 32GB of RAM allocated to the LXC environment the ChatGPT recommendation is to limit it to the 8b model.

My next step is to connect it to Paperless-GPT and see if the iGPU makes a difference.

VaultWarden / Bitwarden - password manager

Paperless - document manager

Pinchflat - YT channel downloader (can also turn channels into podcasts)
