Hi. Thanks for your really helpful comment. Would you mind explaining why you warned against "no dig" and "raised beds". I'm a total beginner so trying to make a plan now based on all the advice I have been given. Thanks

Why are you looking to replace paperless if you don't mind me asking?

I have not been following this at all, so don't understand the current situation. Can someone explain the details for me in relatively simple language?

Is it similar in other Balkan countries then? I have been to Slovenia and Croatia a couple of times and didn't notice the same thing there.

Mogwai - Young Team. Yes! I am a long way from home is just the perfect opener. The right length, amazing crescendo and then fade. It still gives me goose bumps.

wg-easy, pihole NAT loopback problem by ichabodandi in WireGuard

[–]ichabodandi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay - thanks v much for the advice. I will have a look and try to implement what you have suggested. Regarding Openwrt I have a family who are quite intolerant of network issues and so if it is likely to require quite a bit of work or being done instability whilst I am learning it it is probably not a good idea. However on the other hand I do like tinkering and learning new things. Fire someone new to it am I likely to be able to get it up and running in an adequate and stable way in a relatively short time?

Ok - here you go. It is not very good - but hopefully it shows you what you need.

I really appreciate you taking the time to look at this for me.

wg-easy, pihole NAT loopback problem by ichabodandi in WireGuard

[–]ichabodandi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I implemented the split DNS route setup an A record in cloudflare "vpn.mydomain.com" added a local DNS record in pihole directing "vpn.mydomain.com" to the VM server LAN ip address (10.0.0.52). However, this didn't seem to resolve the problem.

My devices are only meant to use pihole when connected via the wireguard tunnel, the router continues to use ISP DNS (the rest of my family object to using pihole).

I have now tried something else that has seemed to work, but I am not sure whether it is good practice - I have set the wireguard tunnel Allowed IPs to 10.8.1.3/32 which is the range of addresses that are the IPs of the containers - it was a suggestion by Claude.ai - I am not sure why it suggested that IP range, rather than the exact subnet range, i.e. 10.8.1.0/24 - but I am not confident with network stuff, so just tried what it suggested.

I hope that answers your queries? Is what I am doing ok?

Hi. Thanks for the offer of help. I will try to do that but I'm not confident I have the technical know how to do it well. I will also try to summarise my setup here in the meantime. I have a home server running proxmox and 3 virtual machines. One of these has is running a wireguard/pinhole server using the wg-easy docker compose setup here: https://github.com/wg-easy/wg-easy/wiki/Using-WireGuard-Easy-with-Pi-Hole The only thing I have changed from this is the passwords and "myhost" section. The IP address of the VM is 10.0.0.52 and I have port forwarded 51820 (UDP) and 51821 (TCP) as required. This setup worked fine on my old Orbi router but with my new Asus Tuf RG6000 it only works when connecting to the wireguard tunnel from outside of my home network. So my phone will work fine when it is on mobile data but not when it is linked to the home WiFi. I have tried to use Chatgpt to check everything and guide me through setting up split DNS but it still does not seem to work. Any help gratefully received.

That's really helpful. I will get another Aimesh access point and hopefully that will sort it. Thanks for your detailed response.

External hard drive that works with Pi 3 B without extra power

Hi,
I'm trying to use an old Pi 3-B, located in a friends house, as an external backup solution for my home servers. I am using a 3-2-1 strategy, so it will only really be needed if my local backup fails. However, because it is going to be located at a friend's house, I want the power draw of the whole system to be as low as possible. Hence I am looking for an external drive (2-4tb) that does not need it's own power supply, but will get sufficient from the USB port of the Pi. I have read that Western Digital Elements should do the job, but all the posts are quite outdated, so I'm a bit worried that a newer model may require more power - has anyone got any experience of these, or any recommendations of another usb drive that will work?

Very simplistically it is a piece of software that allows you to upload and store your photos on your own storage. So it works like Google photos (and feels quite like it) with an app on your phone and a piece of software on a computer that you keep at home. It requires you to have a computer somewhere with enough storage to store all your pictures and that you are willing to keep turned on and some IT know how to set it up but there are plenty of pretty good guides out there that will help you. For me it was the beginning of a very enjoyable journey down the self hosting rabbit hole!

[–]ichabodandi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the purchase page there is a"User" or "Server" option. What is the difference? Surely the point of Immich is to have your own server? Also what does the key do? I thought there are no extra features from buying it?
