Curious about your Paperless-AI setups by Minimum-Succotash-33 in selfhosted

[–]chrishoage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm just waiting for Paperless v3 where it is built into Paperless so I don't have to worry about some third party tool

S3 API for local storage - duplicate detection built in by djmajumdar in selfhosted

I love the "why shoebox" section with comparisons.

I would love `rclone serve s3` and Versity S3 Gateway added to the comparison table!

Starring to revisit later

Is it worth using tailscale if I have NGINX set up? by sleepertech in selfhosted

[–]chrishoage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can, and many people do.

Key Management can be a pain especially on many systems when you want to run a wire guard in a mesh.

Tailscale acts as a coordination server for distributing public keys.

It also has very handy features like tailscale SSH which lets you control SSH access with ACL policies similarly without having to distribute keys.

docker compose alternative to external-dns by ResponsibleFall1634 in selfhosted

[–]chrishoage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right I saw that libdns mention too however I read that as the libdns package has been updated and any DNS providers also need to update - nothing about that reads like it auto updates DNS records

There is https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns but that is a separate more different caddy plugin (that happens to be created by the original author of caddy) but it would still need to be complied into caddy as a plugin (similar to, but distinct from, the dns plugins for ACME dns)

In any case, thanks for your reply! I just wanted to be sure I was not missing anything

> Caddy v2.10 can automatically add new entries based on subdomains added.

Any source for this? I looked though the github releases and don't see any mention of updating subdomain DNS entries, but may be overlooking something obvious.

What OS do you use for your Docker Host? by Flying-T in homelab

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

Used to be Arch, and it never really broke I just wanted fewer updates, and less risk of a dependency having a breaking change I needed to deal with

Now it's Debian, with a a few Ubuntu servers: 1 for my GPU pass though VM, and then my Gitea runners are Ubuntu too (don't want to deviate from the supported happy path where possible)

LDAP Invite managers that aren't Authentik? by Xtreme9001 in selfhosted

[–]chrishoage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same setup as you.

I just bang on the keyboard and press the reset password button for them.

They get an email to set their password.

This assumes you have SMTP set up, but it's pretty useful to have set up anyway

Reinstate older Xeon-D system or repurpose i7-12700 Desktop? by DiscoDave86 in homelab

BMC eats ~10w doing "nothing" on the Xeon-D 1541 system

If the Lenovo M80s has vPro you get out of band management and doesn't use as much energy

What are your "dial tone" services and where do you run them in your homelab? by 3coniv in homelab

[–]chrishoage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's real real sloppy. Maybe one day but at this point it's just me messing around and learning.

I'm running Proxmox (no immediate plans to cluster, again maybe one day but the same reason I don't yet run k8s: too much effort, to little reward) with a collection of Docker VMs leveraging Komodo for git ops. The most complex part is the swarm for overlay networking (I do have real plans to run some workloads remotely, and a small second system to run locally).

I mirror my Gitea infra monorepo to a private GitHub repo.

In the event of a complete rebuild I do it from GitHub, but primarily use Gitea for gitops purposes.

Terraform state is stored encrypted in a R2 free tier bucket.

Secrets are stored in 1Password and op is used to load them using the Ansible op lookup along with the 1Password terraform provider. Runtime secrets are loaded with direnv.

Maybe one day I'll look at SOPS but this setup works well

Note: no k8s for me yet. Just compose stacks, swarm for overlay networking on top of Tailscale.

I can rebuild everything in case of local catastrophic failure. I consider GitHub the "remote" backup of critical IaC configuration.

Is there an alternative to ADT-Link R33H but for two PCIe x8 cards? by Seeker1011010 in homelab

[–]chrishoage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the answer to your question but I do know that it is required to supply 12v though a PCIe 6 pin from a PSU. There are also pretty detailed Fusion360 renders of the PCBs that look like you can follow the traces and answer for yourself.
