/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.
>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

*REPEATING POST FROM LAST THREAD*
Howdy, Ive been skimming /g/ for years at this point and Ive always seen this general and other "make your own server at home" youtube videos for a very long time.
What do you guys recommend for someone who wants to build their own NAS + backup who lives with two other people but dont want them to access my stuff since were all on the same network. At this moment I have no interest in torrenting/seeding, maybe in the future. An ad blocker "pi hole" for my smart tv would be cool. I have a 3d printer but barely use it so I dont think making it connected to the web is worth it when I could buy something better that autolevels.
Ive left over stuff such as;
>raspbery pi 5, 8 gb, 256 gb micro sd, 27w power supply, no cooling fan
>HP slim desktop 290-a0036, amd a9-9425, 8 gb ddr4-1866 sdram
>other older PC's and two all in ones
>spare monitor
>spare sapphire dual x r9 380 oc
>256 gb sata new
>few old 500gb - 1tb hdd drives laying around. HDD health and conditions are unknown.

I assume your net connection is shared and you don't have control over it.
If that's the case then you have a couple of options. Let's go hardware first.
>any should do
As you read, anything you have is capable of achieving what you want, I've setup NAS with Pentium II and 128MB of RAM with no issues.
Now, software/setup
That's easy, install Debian, setup samba and configure your shares with the following:
>browseable: false
>guest: false (requires credentials)
>whitelist only your IP's
And that's pretty much it, nobody will notice you have your own shares and nobody will be able to access it

BUUUUT
the easiest method is to have a true bunker. Even a hole dug under your house straight down will make a pretty good faraday cage, if you put a lid on it.
I think the real smartest way to get a faraday cage on the cheap is buy some land with a good cave that doesn't flood.
BUT
if you have power lines or whatever, you are now exposing the equipment...
... I mean, theoretically you can have protection circuit breakers, but if you actually are going through all this work, I say do it this way:
>cave, or lead encasement, or tunnel, or saddam hole with a lead lid
>runs on batteries
>you manually swap the batteries on the daily
>connection out is via a relay of mesh wifi (if you want a connection)

analysis of bunker options
mainly, you worry about a nuke, because those are the most popular emp in service.
emp are simple enough, because they will only get used directly over military bases or major metro areas.
nukes aren't simple, because they have a fallout cloud, with 2 effects:
1. beneficial to the attacker, the plume can hit populated areas
2. non-befeficial to the attacker, the plume can ride the jestream back home to the attacker
so even if you are in an isolated area, you MAY be vulnerable still to a nuke emp (and plume too, which, depending on the particles, could have bad effects on appliances:
ai: "Beta particles from nuclear fallout can damage electronic equipment, particularly sensitive components like semiconductors, by directly ionizing the material within, causing disruptions in electrical functions, but due to their limited penetration power, the damage is usually confined to the surface or outer layers of the equipment, and can be mitigated with appropriate shielding like thin layers of plastic or metal depending on the beta particle energy level.")
imo living in the boonies, and in a valley, and then maybe having a basement, and then in the basement digging a hole, that's the way to go if you can't get the cave thing going on.

Like that other anon said you should use ECC ram as a minimum if bit flips are a real concern. Then also use parity-checked storage. Both these systems work similarly, and can detect unwanted bitflips. As a bonus they're a MASSIVE help against rowhammer attacks. There are basically no attacks against ECC RAM.

Since OP's mentioning virtualization, I'm gonna repost this here.
Ok so I'm trying to do a GPU passthrough to Hyper-V, but I can't make it work. I've enabled sr-iov, iommu, etc. in bios, copied driver files from the host machine, ran the powershell commands. And I'm still getting a Code 43. Am I missing something or am I getting AMD'd? Maybe someone itt with a 6000 series gpu already tried this? AM5 platform if that matters. No other GPUs in the system.

If you just need drive space and a nice UI I think NextCloud would be what you need.

NextCloud is good if not a little clunky. If you want a OneDrive type experience on your desktop you can install NextCloud desktop. I had to manually change the Documents shortcut on the gnome file browser to the folder that NextCloud was syncing documents to, which is an example of the clunkyness you might see.
The absolute easiest way to deploy NextCloud is with their snap package. It just werks, probably the best example of what snap packing can do when used correctly

I'm bad at setting up filesystems and I prefer the distro installer to just do it for me. I'm thinking of switching from Opensuse (where I have btrfs currently) to Ubuntu with OpenZFS.
Does. OpenZFS have complete feature parity of ZFS?
And is there any post-install configuration I need to do to ZFS if I just want to use it as the main fs on my SSD? I remember it used a fuckhueg amount of RAM last time I used it.

>Does. OpenZFS have complete feature parity of ZFS?
on top of my head:
- NFSv4 ACLs are FreeBSD only, not yet supported on Linux (instead, Linux has POSIX ACLs which don't exist on other platforms)
- sharesmb lacks configuration options on Linux, only works properly on Solaris (you should avoid sharenfs and sharesmb anyway and configure nfsd or sambad properly in their own config files)
- ARC on Linux shows as reserved memory separate from kernels cache memory, it can cause issues with some programs thinking there's not enough RAM, while actually it's taken by ARC which will evict itself when needed
- xattr=sa is platform dependent, exporting the pool to different OS will not show the previous ACLs.
everything else works as expected iirc, even TrueNAS seems to abandon FreeBSD-based TrueNAS Core in favor of Linux-based TrueNAS Scale.
>And is there any post-install configuration I need to do to ZFS if I just want to use it as the main fs on my SSD?
i don't know, if Ubuntu installer supports ZFS on root, then probably should work out of the box. If not, then good luck.
>I remember it used a fuckhueg amount of RAM last time I used it.
yeah, as described above ARC showing as reserved memory can still cause problems, which is probably my biggest annoyance with ZFS on Linux, FreeBSD doesn't have this problem.
If big ARC is causing problems, you can lower it's max size through kernel parameter.

I've been semi-seriously /hsg/'ing for about 8 years now and I already know exactly where your next regret will be. You didn't setup nginx/haproxy/caddy/traefic to hand out ssl certs to all those containers. To answer your question though, I wish I had embraced docker earlier. I always preferred VMs instead, since I felt like I could actually see whats going on and fiddle with stuff that I needed to. Since then sure I can get some containers up and running, and I have probably 3 or 4 running right now, but I'm no where near as expert as I could have been if I just embraced them from the start.

Trash guides is made by some really smart people that guide you how to setup all your stuff correctly.
They made a score system where torrents are ranked based on the naming scheme and how likely they are to have a good codec and stuff, pretty much you wont need to worry about downloading a shitty torrent ever again.
Also look into usenet.

If anything needs a database then you're already at the "needs to interact" stage (assuming you run the database in Docker. I don't like doing that myself and always run databases on the host system and give containers access to that instead).
I would guess they did it this way so you can bring the whole stack down and up in one go though, as well as a destroy and recreate it. There are other ways to do this but putting it all in the same file is one way to go about it.

Nice, lucky.
Years ago I made an mdadm array my boot disk. I do not remember the details of how I did it except that it only supports MBT boot because there's a little mdadm bootloader kept there that mounts the disks and then passes it to the next bootloader. The fun bit was doing a dd of the MBT section of one drive to the MBT section of the other (because it was raid 1 and it would't automatically install mdadm on the second drive)
I tested it by booting with either drive unplugged and it worked.

Nah you can just run standard linux on them, the package OSes are just for low-admin overhead functionality. Personally I'd always recommend against them since having a standard linux distro is more flexible.

paperless-ngx has been super fun to play with in these cold winter months. I'm trying to give home assistant another run after a few years. Now that you can customize the dashboard so much easier, it's a lot better and more useful to me. I'm waiting on some more ram to arrive this week, and then I'll try out romm for my extensive rom collection and komga for comics.

I was wondering exactly how jewmoot made that cluster of Mac minis that supposedly run 4chan, like what software would have been used to cluster them together?

R8 my VM server build
Case: Fractal Meshify 2
CPU: AMD Epy 7532
Mobo: ASRock Rack ROMED8-2T
RAM: 128GB ECC DDR4
HSF: Arctic Freezer 4U-M (Rev. 2)
PSU: Corsair RM1000x (full modular)
OS SSD: WD Ultrastar DC SA210 120GB SSD
I haven't picked up HDDs to host but I'm looking at picking up 4 10TB HGST SAS3 drives to start off with and when I need something more performant I'm looking at picking up Micron S650DC 1.6TB. I'm gonna be running in mirrors so if I need to resilver anything it'll be in hours rather than days. Yeah I don't get huge space but I'd rather sacrifice having 100TB and have 50TB resilvered quickly.

You can just swap the game server endpoint in the hosts file to point it at your server. And since there's no HTTPS cert checking you can just have it signed with whatever (I self signed mine just to have a cert). Web servers can be configured to accept the host header no problem.
The use case is to host pirate servers, or servers after the main API has shut down so that old games can still be played online.

I've already got an old Synology DS918+ running plex with about 15TB of space. This build is for actual VMs. I plan on running gitlab, ansible, Appwrite, a couple game servers. I might migrate my NAS over to the VM server, but more than likely I won't. I'll probably keep my synology for downloading for Plex.

I'm currently using 2 pcie to sata cards 12 drives on a windows machine but I keep seeing stuff about sas hba's in it mode. Do sas cards just plug into a pcie port like the sata cards I already have?
I'm thinking it'll be better to have a sas hba cause you can get 1m long 4 into 1 cables which would make external drives way easier to connect and give me more space for placing them.

>Do sas cards just plug into a pcie port like the sata cards I already have?
yes, they are in standard PCIe card form factor, IT mode SAS HBAs are plug and play.
They are much more versatile as well, they don't have the usual "1 port - 1 disk" limit like the SATA ones do. You can connect tons of physical drives to a single SAS connector, pretty much every JBOD has an "in" and "out" port, you can daisy chain them.
Even if you just use 1 SAS to 4 SATA breaktout cables, i'm pretty sure you can still use SAS expanders to get more ports.

If you have an Epic then it'll handle transcoding, it'll handle pretty much anything to can throw at it. People only recommend Intel for transcoding because it's good when you don't have that CPU grunt to encode or want to maximise power savings, since they have a hardware encoder. You could drop a cheap GPU into it and use that for transcoding if you didn't want to do it all on the CPU for some reason.

I wish i spent more on a Supermicro JBOD instead of a Dell one. The only cooling this MD1200 has are the PSU fans, which get really loud. Supermicro JBODs seem to have a row of fans behind the backplane just like you would expect.

It's doable, I personally don't like to mix VM's and NAS, I rather just run container on the NAS for the purpose of accessing the data through a client.
For your case I'd have:
>Virtualization host
This can easily be a mini PC
>NAS running docker for seeding
You can get away with a cheap old-ish tower with 4 SATA (I recently built this and posted here a couple of threads ago) that could give you 80TB storage. This for the purpose of expansion.

Having an issue with my container in proxmox. I can't seem to access the port on it. Should be configured to port 5000 (changedetection.io)but running a port scan shows me it's not open. I have other vms working fine and the firewall in proxmox is even off.
Any ideas?

Could be the container, but my guess is that you may have a conflicting service if you see it's not open on your port scan.
Can you rebuild and change ports?
>>103998710
No, not really. Though OPNSense (which is what I run) would give you more granularity and power than what your ASUS router can probably do (at the cost of being very DIY).
It sounds like you have decent opsec. What model ASUS router do you have? Are you installing the VPN on the router like through Wireguard or OpenVPN or something?

I'm starting to think it's the container too. It's the only container on that IP and the port scan sees port 22 open but that's it. I have other containers inside a VM with a different IP and those are working fine.

Has to be some kind of misconfiguration in the container. Def go ahead and rebuild it. If you can, try a new port. If not, try and rebuild and see if that's the issue.
Also, I am not familiar with Proxmox very well. Do you need to forward ports in the host too? I have to do that when I hook a container up to Gluetun. Requires me to reconfig Gluetun (just add some lines in the config.yaml) and relaunch. So if it's a network-bound app, could you restart any network services too?

Just checking out the specs -- it really does seem quite powerful. Wifi 7, good channel support, AI tools(?) built in.
I guess ultimately the question is what would you even want to achieve with OPNsense or PFSense? Do you need VLANs or powerful granularity?
Frankly all you need to fuck around with OPNsense is a used Dell Optiplex for like $60, a switch, and maybe an AP if you want to broadcast. I built my network as a learning exercise with OPNsense but if you simply don't have need for that kind of power then you should probably be good to just stick with the stock OS of your router/hardware

You're in the right place to ask these types of questions. I'm actually going to rescind my answer of "just use stock" and ask you an important questions:
>What services/servers/etc are you exposing
The reason I ask is that traditional NetSec wisdom would have had you segment your network into something like a labnet (for your servers, labbing, and network appliances), home (for all your guests/users) and maybe an IoT network for smart devices if you have any (which you said you did not).
IF you plan on getting into the homelabbing or homeserver world, you might want to think about a beefier network setup depending on your usecase.

Gotcha! And a follow up question:
>How are you exposing these services (port forwarding, VPN, CloudFlare, etc)?
>Or, how do your friends access them (do they need a VPN, can they visit an ip, etc)
If you just have ports open on your router so ANYONE can hit your IP and try to login (even though I'm sure your passwords are good) you're asking for trouble imo. In general it's not great practice to open up ports on your router for services like this, as you NEVER know when there's a vuln in one of the servers you're running that can fuck your day. I promise, you are being scanned like crazy. I do what you do, with more security, and I still get scanned all day. You can see how many requests I get to my services all day in pic related.
I expose jellyfin and jellyseerr only through CloudFlare secure tunnels with email verification on. Even if they do break all that, they can only hit my labnet -- none of my other devices are on this segmented network. This is to give an example of the level of caution I exercise when exposing services -- no open ports and VLANs.
>>103999078

I left TrueNAS because the virtualization was too limiting, and I just wanted to be able to install software easily, and also learn about networking a bit more
I will say that TrueNAS is perfect for NAS requirements with basic additions (like torrenting software or Jellyfin), but building up from a Linux install is really satisfying and less restrictive

The jellyfin/game servers are standard just open ports, and I have a DDNS domain setup for the IP. They're all on different VM's, with different, local IPs, and that's all they're setup to do, is run those servers. Making everyone connect through a VPN isn't really feasible.

Either way it's not super important. The root question

And the answer is no, but what you're doing is not safe and there are better ways to securely host stuff for people.

is there a built system for storing backup data on someone elses computer?
Example say you have 10TB of data and you want to backup your data, you can then have a system/software that copies this 10TB of data encrypted to someone elses server to store on as backup.
But in return you must also store an extra 10TB of someone elses encrypted data on your data server.
something like this would be great unless I'm missing something

It didn't work right after the install with DHCP but I set a static IP in the container options in proxmox and restarted it. And it worked. No idea what it really could've been but maybe the default installation failed and just said it succeeded? Idk anymore but it works.
Now to try huginn

Not sure if this is the right thread but...
I have a wifi extender I use to reach a wireless camera that's far away from my house. The camera works and I can see the feed on my phone, but the cam doesn't show up on the list of devices when I log into my router's admin panel. It shows correctly if I take the camera and turn it on in the house.
Any ideas?

I was tempted but steered away by a networking friend of mine. Still, why not buy one and see how long it takes to fail? I know many niggas buy from serverpartdeals

Yeah. I got these exact drives
https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-IronWolf-12TB-Internal-Drive/dp/B084ZTSMWF
Price matched at Microcenter during a sale (I think it was either Black Friday or Amazon's day or whatever) down to $200 a pop. You could probably do better but I'm happy with my drives desu.

which models are considered most reliable? I saw some people say that some drives have helium and are sketchy long-term.
