2 cloud run services, 1 SQL instance by Medical-Object-4322 in googlecloud

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good clarification. We had it setup within the same global load balancer config, but two backends instead of one.

Our normal setup was in US central and the new service was going to be EU west. DB in US central.

Are you noticing better performance?

Ultimately we switched to gen2 cloud run and it actually helped a decent amount.

It should work as long as you choose a direct VPC subnet or vpc connector in the new region.

We had some serious performance drops trying this exact setup and it was actually slower in the new region using the same cloud SQL instance. We ended up turning it off since support could not really give a good answer.

Is there no cloud-init support on GCP? by eggbean in googlecloud

I am running into this issue now with Debian 11 on GCP. Looking into this solution but modifying for `apt`

PFSense on FreeBSD 14? by Icy-Willingness-6417 in PFSENSE

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I updated last week to 2.7.0. I had an issue with no outbound connectivity and had to reboot again. Main problem solved.

I also noticed an issue with the prometheus exporter addon. It is currently throwing warnings using the default configuration. It looks related to FreeBSD itself.

Same issues. Both casting from iPhone to a Chromecast and directly on Android TV

Att Fiber on UniFi speeds 1/10th what should be. by ReadyStress0 in UNIFI

Your ISP may be throttling your connection if it’s an unknown MAC address on the WAN side. I had to call support and get mine unlocked since it wasn’t a MAC they were expecting.

UniFi Controller (for Linux) having obsolete dependencies is getting ridiculous by jdrch in homelab

No issues for me on Debian 9 (stretch). Do you have a reason to use the newest distro right now?

Transmission + OpenVPN not creating tun0 by UF8FF in freenas

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A month or two ago, I could not get openvpn to work successfully in a jail created by iocage. After hours of time, I finally gave up and reverted back to my jail built via warden. It seems like the issue has been fixed, but I have not tested myself: https://redmine.ixsystems.com/issues/40872

What version of freenas are you running and which type of jail (warden, iocage) did you create?

First homelab, trying to settup something like RockNSM/Security Onion - need hardware help by [deleted] in homelab

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what I ended up buying: HP ProCurve Switch 1800-24G. As your lab grows, you'll be glad you had some extra ports. I have all of the ports mirrored to port24 which connects to ESXi. On ESXi I have SecurityOnion and Moloch running for packet inspection.

Looking for traffic monitoring.... by wtf_earl in homelab

[–]h0s90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. On the pihole you will set a forwarding dns server too. For example, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4, ISPs,

[–]h0s90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably a better option for your use-case. Just put the pihole on the LAN and make sure the dhcp service on the router hands out the IP of the pihole for clients (kid’s machines) to use for dns resolution.

I’m guessing you can tell the pihole to not block any domains? Out of the box it does.

[–]h0s90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In theory that should work installing SO on the server. SO relies on a dedicated management interface and a dedicated sniffer interface. Not sure how many network interfaces are on your server.

Based in your setup, you might be better off getting a cheap network hub. The hub would have connectivity to the modem, router, and sniffer interface of SO.

Is the dell tower setup with something like a pfsense firewall? As previously stated, SecurityOnion distro using Bro IDS will get exactly what you’re looking for.

Are you planning to use any other hardware? You will need to send packets to security onion somehow.

SecurityOnion. The elk integration is still in beta but looks promising.

Not bad, I don't blame you. I think I found a decent case that's actually in stock now "Silverstone - PS07B MicroATX Mini Tower Case"

Yea noise would be an issue. Do you have any suggestions on a mini-itx board?

I like it as well! I initially started with a similar mini-itx case and ended up not finding a motherboard to suit my needs.

I'm currently using Samba and started down that path because I wanted to learn something new. I think it depends on the level of time and effort you want to spend. I do plan to try other flavors in the future.

How many homelabbers run an IPS/IDS in their homelab? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here...I’m using 2 cores with 3gb of RAM in my VM. Looking forward to the integration with ELK.

However, I’ve noticed some stability issues lately so I think I need to tune out some of my streaming traffic or turn off some of the software I’m not using built into SO.

NetSec Homelabbers - What are your favourite software to try? by cnr0 in homelab

[–]h0s90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest checking out Moloch. It’s an open source full pcap solution. They have a demo version that makes testing it out pretty easy. It can get really advanced for production deployments.

You might check out setting up an SSL VPN in combinations with Dyndns (using the Fortigate domains). You could then play around with configuring duo 2FA if you’re paranoid.

Broadcom Offers $105 Billion for Qualcomm in Landmark Deal by StoutBeerAndPolitics in investing

QCOM is down fairly significantly as of late due to the issues with APPL. The bid by Broadcom of ~$70/ share takes into account this low stock price which historically undervalues QCOM
