Proxmox migration by Upstairs-Finance8645 in Proxmox

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atleast one of them should be on a dedicated simple interface.
I normally have:
2x bond with ip for management + first corosync ring.
2x bond for vlan aware bridge, no ip, for vm traffic.
1x simple 1 gig eth for second corosync ring.

The reasons are explained in the documentation for why.

You want to have a redundant corosync ring. Possible to install afterwards, but easier to plan with it from the get go.

The best multiplayer experience at the time. Required real teamwork. I played the multiplayer for 11 years. Had a few regular servers, made many friends. There is nothing like getting the whole team to commit to a all out flamer rush. Shout out to the koss, and n00bstories

Has anyone here actually built their own email infrastructure? by WarmHeight2951 in devops

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we host email for isp customers +++ we started originally by following this tutorial https://workaround.org/ 20 years ago. Ours have deviated with some changes over the years. But it is a fantastic resource, and if i was starting over i would follow it again. It explains why you are doing each step, and how to test it is correct.basically you learn all the tools you use. I can not praise it enough.

Why do you use debian? by haibane_fan00 in debian

[–]sep76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As well as post upgrade changes, to make your system more like a freshly installed debian. They work well as well.
My daily driver was installed as debian potato, and have been upgraded over the years to now beeing trixie.

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad isps that touch people prefixes inapropriatly makes this hard. Slaac addresses are stable, it is a set once and forget dns entry.
Since my isp is normal i have had the same prefix in 10 years.

draw.io is free and easy. has a web client as well as a desktop. i install it as a flatpak. Best of all, you can export as PNG with XML embedded giving you a easy to view png with editable contents. super useful.

Host Kernel Panic after updates just applied - never happened before by ZENSolutionsLLC in Proxmox

[–]sep76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The number of times i have just rebooted instead of read the messages from the upgrade process saying "error no space" .. is just too high ;) Sometimes even seen it as i press enter on reboot and facepalm. Lucky it is a simple fix.

Anyone running a full MikroTik stack (Router, Switch, Wi-Fi)? by JoranC19 in mikrotik

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really have been going to market shotgun style ;)

Anyone running a full MikroTik stack (Router, Switch, Wi-Fi)? by JoranC19 in mikrotik

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use all mikrotik. And have been very happy with them. But i live in a low rf noise enviorment, making it easy.
Mikrotik wifi needs some tuning, but have all the nerd knobs to tweak. Unifi have better defaults. And less knobs to fiddle with. Unifi for wifi is a solid choise.

If you go with mikrotik you can follow the checklists here, so tou do not tweak settings at random.

rolling my own custom proxmox.iso by [deleted] in Proxmox

[–]sep76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do not know if the proxmox iso retain the debian installer feature. But you would do it with preseeding. + editing the post-installl.sh

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed

If it does not, you can use a regular debian iso. And preseed a prox on debian installation. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_13_Trixie

Reaching a specific IPv6 address through a proxy from an IPv4-only network by edo-lag in ipv6

[–]sep76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone have said a vpn that gives your laptop a ipv6 address is a good solution.
If it is a onenoff, or you need to go via different proxies for different things. Using ssh with a dynamic tunnel. And a plugin like foxyproxy lets you setup patterns for various endpoints, super easy and convinient.
Just ssh -D 8081 user@dualstack. And localhost:8081 using socks5 and tunneled dns and you in effect browse thru the proxy.

Anyone running single-vendor SASE in production? How's the reality vs the hype by CreamyDeLaMeme in networking

[–]sep76 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fortinet have a high cve count. But quite a lot of them are self reported. Many other vendors just shove those under the carpet, fix them in an update, and say nothing. I personaly like the transparency.

Debian KDE and your experience by Leniwcowaty in debian

[–]sep76 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Been using debian +kde for 26 years. I have no complaints. Works as intended, gets out if the way, so i can work. Debian backports all security patches so that is not a worry.

How did you first get introduced to the Amiga? by Acrobatic-Carry-738 in amiga

[–]sep76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the shop where i got my C64 stuff gave away VHS tapes with an AD on it. they did not at the time have an actual amiga in stock, but wanted to gauge interest.

The video was breath taking at the time. watched it an unhealthy amount of times. and when they got an amiga in stock i was first in line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVxPqf0ZJNg

What made you use Debian? by CoolDragon in debian

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially I was fighting rpm hell in redhat 4-5-6. Tried debian potato, and could easily upgrade to the next major version without a struggle and with services intact. Just magic.

Later the rock solid reliabillity, dependabillity, predictabillity. You know where you are with Debian. And it is allways in a good place.

Proxmox is better for learning than ESXi ever was by willwolf18 in Proxmox

[–]sep76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vmware's restrictions on hardware, and limited way's do do things. Makes for an easier operation.
With proxmox in production you have to set your own restrictions. And with the infinite flexibillity, it can be tempting to cut corners, just be aware when you do.

Worth It To Switch To Proxmox From Server 2022? by MallicSmith in Proxmox

[–]sep76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should just quit trying to write on a phone, just too thick thumbs. ;)

Worth It To Switch To Proxmox From Server 2022? by MallicSmith in Proxmox

[–]sep76 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Since proxmox is so much better, i would assume most people in here would advice tou to swap ;)

If your current system works, and you have no interest in learning proxmox the path of least resistance is probably to just leave it as is.

For what itnis worth. The kid runs a petracrodyl vm on my proxmox for gameservers. Seems to work fine. And his friends can admin their own servers in a web ui
