selfhosted

I am in self hosting for a bit now, have an unraid server and a bunch of services running. Now I want to expose some services through a reverse proxy, but with authentication, preferably google oauth2. I’ve tried a lot of things, Authentik, Authelia, NPM, and so on. I found everything way to complicated. What I liked the most...

Yesterday Evening I replaced my HP z240 that was sitting on a shelf with a Rosewill 2U 15" chassis (center image)...

Hey y'all, I've been using my.freenom as my domain registrar for the past six years without too many issues. I've kept it mainly because it has been cheap as balls. However, I am now looking for a registrar that supports dynamic dns and would love to hear your suggestions. The first results that pop up are google and godaddy...

I’ve been eyeing these devices for some time now. The price point is… delicious!...

The question above for the most part, been reading up on it. Also want to it for learning purposes.

I don’t know if this is relevant, but it has to connect to the internet using the phone line...

Mine is in the picture: 1544 days and counting!...

I’ve got 1000/50 service from a mid-size ISP. It’s pretty consistent- any time I run a speed test from home, it will hit those numbers. I have an opnsense plugin checking twice a day....

Hi there,...

I’m thinking of picking up some parts or using an old laptop to host a few services, passbolt being one of them. I’ve seen that it requires an SMTP server though. Is this actually required? And would I be able to use this without getting a domain name?

I want to set up a collaborative writing/socializing platform for my friend group using something like Calckey/Misskey, and just want to know if this is possible....

Hi, so I launched my very own instance. I’m posting from here, and hopefully this post makes it there. I subscribed to a few coms, but I’m getting outdated posts and the votes don’t line up, also the comments do not all load. So I’m able to federate, but for some reason only some of the data is coming over to my...

So everyone is talking about cloudflare tunnels and I decided to give it a shot....

I have a laptop and a desktop-based-server on a 192.168.1.x segment on my network. I want to setup Tailscale between them....

So, I’ve found that there are a lot of ways to backup a server and anything on it, but I’m somewhat at a loss for what to use to backup everything else to that server....

I see a lot of people here uses some form of remote access tool (VPN/Tailscale) to access their home network when not at home. I can’t really do this because my phone (iOS) can only activate one VPN profile at a time, and I often need this for other stuff....

For the vast majority of docker images, the documentation only mention a super long and hard to understand “docker run” one liner....

It seems like a good idea to me since I already have a few podman containers running inside VMs to separate them, but the resources are eaten up. On the other hand, its Oracle....

Can I do what the title said? It could be useful when I’m on a sketchy WiFi. I’m asking as I’m already using ZeroTier to access my home server and this could be another nice use.

I recently set up Nextcloud, and so far I’m really enjoying it. With the exception of Gmail and Backblaze, I’m no longer using any online services that aren’t self-hosted on my own hardware; Nextcloud has allowed me to get rid of the last few Google services I was using....

Running a TrueNAS Scale server with Jellyfin and planning to add Nextcloud. How would I be able to access these services from outside my network? I have heard portforwarding is unsafe and a VPN seems inconvenient to me.

Is this supposed to happen? I thought it assigned a special ip and that’s the one you use. For me I’m able to access my original local ip address outside my network, and from the provided tailscale ip. luckily when I turn off tailscale I can’t access either.

I currently use an old (2013?) Intel NUC with a 12TB MyBook plugged in as a simple Plex server. I want to get a NAS. Right now at Amazon or B&H I can get a DS923+ w/ two 16TB HDDS for about $1000....

I just started getting into self hosting using docker compose and I wonder about possible backup solutions. I only have to safe my docker config so far, but I want host files as well. What software and hardware are you using for backup?

Damn, this is a sad day for the homelab....
