This is exactly what I’m about to do (later this week when I visit their house)
I’ve been using syncthing for years, but any tips for the encryption?
I was going to use SendOnly at my end to ensure that the data at the other end is an exact mirror, but in that case, how would the restore work if it’s all encrypted?
It varies of course, but most of my torrents are movies and linux ISOs (for real)
I seed any Movies I leech at a 2:1 ratio… most are leeched from Europe, but I’ve had them from Canada, South America, Asia, but weirdly not many from North America.
I like to give back more to the Linux community, so I’m constantly seeding Arch & Mint ISOs (as that’s just what I’m using… maybe something Raspberry-ish) - they go everywhere.
I had a weird instance once where the same Chinese IP address was constantly re-downloading the same ISO. Could’ve been a VPN endpoint, but after I’d shared something like 40:1 there, I started using GeoIP to block it and similar regions I was uncomfortable with… so the world’s becoming smaller for me.
So, I’m a little behind the times here… should I be moving away from torrent search sites to this new fangled spot stuff?
+1 for this.
You need to see all the data flowing through a sensor to be able to map it, so a router / firewall is often the central point.
I run it as an addon for pfSense and it’ll show me all sorts of info.
If you setup the GeoIP you can see which countries your network’s connecting too… interesting for torrents…
Crowdsec will block external, public, IPs
Fail2Ban will block login attempts (ie from anywhere)
I have a similar setup with pfSense, pfBlockerNG, HAProxy, etc, but I keep F2B running on my DMZ server in case something is ever compromised as it’ll block / slow down anyone trying to move around the network.
Maybe, I’m self hosting several trees, so… 🤷♂️
Depends on the variety of course… my Willows need cutting down, whereas the acorns I planted before the willows are still tiny oaks in pots 🙂
Ahh, I see what you mean. Being asked to pay twice isn’t nice…
But would you / do you voluntarily donate to Jellyfin’s development?
I get it, it is (& a lot of things are) free… but at some point the developers need to recoup something…
Otherwise Jellyfin’s development will eventually dry up as raw enthusiasm runs out.
Can I (figuratively speaking) just change the destination in my backup scripts and start writing to Hetzner… or are they using a completely different setup?
Does that also include Burial?
Whatever you end up with
I replaced Nextcloud with syncthing (files) & radicale (calendar, contacts & todos)
No-one used the calendar on NC, they just used their phones, Outlook, etc
No-one used the photo gallery on NC - that’s now Immich … again, with syncthing.
During the early days, just doing an update would break things.
For a small home setup, NC is too big, too clunky and just not the right tool.
Critical Synology Vulnerability Let Attackers Remote Execute Arbitrary Code
Just build your own. It’s easy. Move on.
Yeah, that’s all fine - when it works, it works well… But sometimes it just seems to get caught up in an error and can’t seem to reset for a few minutes. But ok, looks like your setup’s working ok, so must be just mine. I disabled a load of Google stuff and run trackercontrol (a local VPN on the phone that blocks stuff), so maybe I’ve broken something…
Hmm… I’m using gotify with a Ras Pi to send the alerts and I sometimes get long delays…
AFAICT it’s the phone, not the Pi, but all I can see are lots of websocket errors in the gotify client the time… are you not getting those then?
we are very excited about being part of the Claudflair team
Guess they’re so excited (and thrilled) that they forgot how to spell
Yep, hence my comment…
You should see the fear on people’s faces when I suggest they restore a backup - esp. on Production.
My advice (to combat their fear) is to take an offline backup that has some kind of checksum and then immediately restore it.
That gets them past the initial fear and then we progress onto other backup strategies… if needed.
Backups… fine
When’s the World “test you can restore” day?
Just a friendly reminder that RAID is not a backup…
Just consider if something accidentally overwrites some / all your files. This is a perfectly legit action and the checksums will happily match that new data, but your file(s) are gone…
