Looks nice. Well done!

Got hit with this recently

https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15148

Just restored an old backup. Everything is behind a vpn and is working so ill give it a while and see if it gets sorted before resorting to swapping out the sqlite version for each update.

No worries,

I use dns for my wireguard endpoint so it hits myserverurl:50001 . Im using the router as a wg client however connecting to my server.

I have ip tables rules my server. To route connections. Its been a while but I used this back in the day when I set it up

https://miguelmota.com/blog/getting-started-with-wireguard/

Try connect with ethernet to access the admin page ?

If that doesnt work another option is to hard reset the router

The ip shouldnt change unless the server is down for a period of time and the ip is dynamic.

If it is returning OK then it sounds like duckdns is working as intended

I have been using duckdns for a few years without issues. It should be simple enough , just set up a cron job with your details as listed on their site where you configure it. This keeps your dns entry up to date.

Enshittification intensifies

Well i have the rp as i only want one port exposed. I have separate networks per service too to isolate things. Only the things that need to talk to each other can.

My stuff is only accessible on the lan and via the vpn and even then only certain ips have access to certain things.

In your case it might be different , but generally a reverse proxy is better as you can have a single point of access to secure and you are not exposing all of your ports to the host or the internet.

You can use a ddns such as duckdns or host on github pages with jekyll or something

Debian on the host and everything else in containers

I have the arr stack connected to gluetun doing its thing and then wireguard on the host. I only expose my reverse proxy to the host and can connect to the services through that.

Note the networks below, vpn_net allows it to talk to the gluetun network which has the other stuff. The gluetun and arr stuff are in a separate compose file that defines the network. Then the non vpn stuff connects to that network when it comes up

nginx: 
    image: nginx:1.25.4-alpine-slim
    container_name: nginx
    restart: always
    volumes:
       - /etc/letsencrypt/:/etc/letsencrypt/

I do monthly backups with cron and tar and syncthing for my containers.

I do quarterly backups of my server (14TB) to external USB HDDs. This is done via a script that mounts the drives, runs rsync to copy, then unmounts the drives again and emails me when it is done. I dont bother encrypting them as it ia mainly just media.

I have something similar . I have WG on the host to access my services and gluetun in a container using openvpn for specific services.

In my case I have the host wg pass through connections to the outside via iptables rules but I’m not forwarding the connection to gluetun. I have the ip of my server as my ip.

In your case as you want a commercial vpn ip as your exit ip you would need to use iptables to pass traffic between the 2 networks .

No issues at the moment but need to update a few containers when I get the chance. I also need to set up contacts sync in radicale for the address book and integrate it with Thunderbird and davdroid.

In the near term I’ve been working on a plan to make sure my keepass db is accessible to my SO and family in the event of my demise. I recently lost a dear friend and had to gain access to his stuff for his family, luckily he didn’t have the linux partition encrypted so I got a recovery shell then remounted the disk and changed the password and could then also mount the windows partition once I logged in.

It made me think as all my stuff is encrypted and there is no way someone would guess it nor crack it so I’m writing documentation and leaving it with family members.

The documentation explains how to use keepass and who to contact for support. Im leaving the db with family members and the password with a select few people that dont have the db. My SO will have access to all the info too.

I’ll update the db periodically and give them a newer version but keep the same password

I encourage you all to consider this too.

I do the same with adguard home, it works fine and like you say valid https for all services.

Syncthing ?

I’m due a backup and other than that I hope nothing breaks

13 containers currently. I have thought about adding some more stuff such as bazarr and more but I need to be in the humor for it.

R.I.P

Connect it to your PC or laptop and do a netinstall. Configure SSHD and a static ip. Plugin the disk to your server and then connect via ssh to admin it.

You could also set your laptop or PC to boot from the attached disk in the bios to test the services you want to start are starting
