Just this week, I setup Homepage to monitor my server and its various docker containers at a glance, including cpu/ram/network usage and a whole bunch of information pulled from their APIs (such as how many itemes are actively downloading via sonarr+sabnzbd, or how many queries were blocked by pihole today).

That in turn lead me too Glances, both as various widgets in Homepage as well as a stand alone tool.

Note: Homepage doesn’t come with authentication. You’ll have to handle that yourself via a reverse proxy or vpn. Glances has an optional login page you can enable, but I haven’t explored that. I access services like these by connecting to my network through OpenVPN.

I host my own vpn from home, which keeps me behind my pihole(s) and able to access my private services without exposing them to WAN.

Also secures my mobile traffic from snooping/modifying while on public networks.

Coupons often drive sales for items that people usually wouldn’t buy themselves, sometimes even to people that normally wouldn’t shop there; then once they’ve tried something they haven’t had before, the customer is more likely to purchase that again in the future.

Then there’s additional items you add to the order beyond the coupon.

Finally there’s some rather insane profit margins on some of those items. Even with the coupon, they’re still making profit.

Find a problem they are experiencing and introduce them to a solution they can self-host to fix it. Expand from there.

I began my self-hosting journey 7ish years ago with media piracy and a desire to watch/access my files wherever I was. Learned of Plex, then Emby, Reverse Proxies, Domains, SSL, and on and on…

Today I’m running 24+ docker containers and some miscellaneous stuff, across 3 systems; that’s always accessible via my domain/vpn.

what does not work:

• i can not ping server.local (- for testing i have to stop the systemd-resolved.service to run the dnsmasq server, or else there are port collisions, but that should not be the problem i guess. I am happy to hear your solution :))
• i can also not use ssh to log in to server.local, ip address works

Have you added “server.local” as a DNS record in your dnsmasq container, pointing to your servers LAN IP? Sounds like dnsmasq isn’t resolving that name, which would lead to both of these ‘failures’.

Oh damn, I hadn’t noticed. My setup is still functioning just fine.

There is an alternative though: Orbital-Sync

I haven’t actually used it, so I can’t say much about it; but I’ll probably look into replacing gravity-sync with that.

https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/cloudflared/

I use this to translate DNS to DoH, and use cloudflare, and quad9 upstream.

environment:
  - TUNNEL_DNS_UPSTREAM=https://1.1.1.1/dns-query,https://1.0.0.1/dns-query,https://9.9.9.9/dns-query,https://149.112.112.9/dns-query

Haven’t really noticed any DNS based lag.

Why not both?

My primary DNS is pihole on a rpi dedicated to the task; but I run a second instance of pihole via my main docker stack for redundancy. Should one or the other be unavailable, there’s a second one to pick up the slack.

I just provide both DNS IPs to LAN clients via DHCP.

Gravity Sync is a great tool to keep both piholes settings/records/lists in sync.

Same, though I’m using acme.sh and DNS-01. (had to go look at the script that triggers it to remember, lol)

I check the log file my update script writes every few months just to be sure nothings screwy, but I’ve had 0 issues in 7 years of using LE now.

A paid cert isn’t worth it.

https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/cloudflared/

I use pihole+cloudflared to translate all DNS requests on my LAN to DoH requests. Regular DNS isn’t permitted to leave my network. (port 53 outbound is blocked)

Can’t redirect/modify/monitor DoH requests like you can plain DNS.

I work warehousing; no IT background, I just like to tinker with whatever. Have since I started breathing.

I was a fairly casual pirate, grabbing movies/shows I couldn’t find elsewhere (or just couldn’t afford). Got into Plex/Emby for my first real exploration into self-hosting (if you don’t count SRCDS and/or Minecraft Server at like 13yo); and expanded my knowledge from there. Reverse Proxys, the ‘arrs’, DNS, Docker, VPNs, etc.

Now a days, I’ve got 20+ services that I mostly access via a VPN I host, and I’m always interested in messing with new things :)

Again; I’m just the messenger. Didn’t make the decisions.

Head over to lemmy.ml (in a browser) click on ‘mod log’ at the bottom and search your name.

There’s another 20ish communities on lemmy.ml you’ve been banned from at the same time for the same reason.

Note: I’m just passing on the message.

WOW.

I can understand making a mistake in the website design, leaving such a vulnerability; but to shove it under the rug and ghost the people that reported it???

The TSA and DHS are begging for an incident.

Glad Ian Carroll+Sam Curry made the info public. Maybe that’ll be the push needed to actually fix this.

It rolls, kills all 6 tied up people, and everyone onboard.

Glad I could help :)

At least this post wasn’t a total waste…

Sigh. Spend an hour looking for a solution, fall back to a post asking for help, find the solution 5min later…

For anyone else searching in the future:

From paperless-ngxs settings page (logged in as an admin)

‘Open Django-Admin’ > ‘Paperless Mail’ > ‘Processed Mails’

Select what you’d like, then delete.

Running the media streaming software on a separate machine is a good idea IF you need transcoding; ie, you need/want to translate the files into another format or a lower quality (for poor remote connections) on-the-fly before serving them to users.

If your clients can play the files just fine as-is, another machine doesn’t really add anything except complexity.

Depends quite a bit on the lifestyle; but I agree.

Days I’m working (physical labor) I shower when I get home; but my days off I’m mostly sitting in an air-conditioned room watching media or playing games. Then I shower every other day; cause there’s really no need. There’s always exceptions though.
