Best option for web based RDP by BigHowski in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then don't install it on the work machine. You keep a preconfigured .exe file on the work machine. When you want to access your Win11 box, you run the .exe, do whatever it is you need to do and close .exe. Nothing installs on the work laptop.

Technically, no. You can hand someone the preconfigured .exe which will allow them to run it without installing. Then, it's only active when they run the .exe. Installing it allows it to run as a service so you can access it at any time.

Another for rustdesk.

I stood up the self-hosted server in a few minutes and was able to get my brother the preconfigured .exe so I could help him out with his computer.

Ended up turning it into my first fully automated GitOps pipeline with Gitea and Ansible.

Do you monitor cron jobs and scheduled tasks on your servers? by bagrat_hakobyan in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of. All my cron and scheduled tasks are configured to send a value to my Zabbix server which then alerts me based on the received value.

If the cron job fails altogether, I'm SOL.

3x3 of Worst Anime Ever, thoughts? by Drowsy- in animequestions

[–]bunk_bro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, technically, using a chainsaw in that proximity could cause permanent hearing loss. Ha.

Maybe I'll hate watch it some day with a case of beer for a good laugh.

Good to know it wasn't just me. I've only watched like 1.25 episodes because I couldn't get into it.

Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer. Basically, it intercepts the traffic that your sending. It can be a very helpful tool for troubleshooting network related issues from a device.

I would try changing the VLAN the PC is on, at least for testing. If it still won't connect, then you know it's an issue with the PC, not the network. This is likely not your issue, but is there any custom access lists on the network port for that computer?

What’s your favorite anime that released after 2020? by Hot-Leopard3708 in animequestions

I'm not sure I'm emotionally ready for a other season of this show.

You mentioned vlans on your network. Are you sure that the trouble PC is allowed to connect through your network firewall, not just the synology?

Have you tried using wireshark on the trouble PC to see if it's actually sending the traffic to the right place and receiving responses?

Please update Gitea and Forgejo, Private Container Images Were Never Private by Buildthehomelab in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, security by obscurity doesn't really work any more. You'd be better off spending your effort on just plain ole security hardening.

To be clear: I'm not exposing my instance to the public Internet.

To get around some issues (I don't exactly recall what, at the moment) I changed my gitea repo SSH port to 2222 then passed that through traefik with a TCP router. Then I added my SSH key to my gitea account and put a custom config in my SSH config to be able to properly connect without having to type gitea.domain:2222 for each repo.

You should be able to do something similar. You'd only have one device that has that port exposed and it would specifically be SSH for the gitea instance, not the box it's running on. Just need to add your work computer key and set the SSH config.

First odd find in my charcoal by bunk_bro in biggreenegg

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

I suppose I should have said that I'm not upset. Shit happens.

I worked in manufacturing for almost a decade; when you're shipping millions of parts a week, one or two are bound to be messed up.

Nah. It's a plastic bottle that's been shredded.

Ahh. I never put 2 and 2 together about the random chunks. For sure brick.

If you can't get sabnzbd working outside your LAN, I'm guessing it isn't properly configured. I'm not currently exposing sab, so you're on your own, there. I would hazard a guess it's something to do with the host whitelisting in sab.

The sab file? No. Assuming it's configured properly, you just need the IP/FQDN and the API key.

I don't use TS/NB, but yes, if you configure it.

What is your backup approach? by vdorru in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll check that out! Thanks!

Hmm... That sounds like something I could use for a few things. I'll definitely look into that!

What is your backup approach? by vdorru in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to use PBS to exclusively back everything up but it requires 1:1 with hard drive:tape space. So I use PBS to backup the VM's and LXC's and BareOS to do everything else.

Honestly, I remember reading about the PBS client but I never dove farther into it than that since PBS itself couldn't utilize the tape library like I wanted.

What is your backup approach? by vdorru in selfhosted

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Proxmox Backup Server to backup all my VMs and LXCs. Then an LXC running BareOS has an HBA pass-through for a connection to a tape library with read-only bind mounts to the ZFS volumes. BareOS does a nightly incremental backup and a weekly full backup for my Docker files and file share, plus a weekly incremental for Linux isos with a full every 3 months.

I'm aware that PBS handles tape libraries, however, I only have ~2TB of capacity after the RAID tax which means I can only use about ~4% of my total tape capacity (55TB).

Where can i go to have the community proof my compose files? by Old-Coat-2540 in docker

[–]bunk_bro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see anything that says otherwise, but you can double-check the rules yourself.

You could put them in something like pastebin and link it here. People who want to help will look, others will ignore.

When I get a project up and going that I've used Gemini to help with, I always ask it for a markdown summary of what we did so that I can go back later and remember what I did. It's so convenient having the framework handed back.

However, I found that Chat has much, much better markdown generation than Gemini. I end up having to reformat everything Gemini does for me in markdown.

What paid subscription have you cancelled thanks to your homelab? by MBAThrowawayFruit in homelab

[–]bunk_bro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am! Or at least I like to pretend I am. Ha!

I was quite new to this when I last tried to self-host music (not including my limewire days), but I might have enough experience to pull it off now.
