How’s your stuff doing? Unplanned interruptions or achieving uptime records?
I’m currently sailing rather smooth. Most of my stuff is migrated to Komodo, there will stay some exceptions and I only have to migrate Lemmy itself I think. Of course that’s when I found a potential replacement but I’ll let it sit for a while before touching it again. Enjoying the occasional Merge Request notification from the Renovate Bot and knowing my stuff is mostly up to date.
I’m thinking about setting up some kind of Wiki for my other niche hobby (Netrunner LCG) lore as there’s a fandom one that most people avoid touching and updating but since I likely won’t have time to start writing some articles on my own as a kickoff I’m hesitant. Also not sure which wiki I’d choose as well.

Had a productive session this weekend migrating my promtail config to grafana Alloy and setting up a syslog receiver to capture output from my cron jobs. Next up I’ll be messing with some scripts to sync my dashboard config across several instances which should be pretty neat if it works
I dug out an old laptop and installed Yunohost on it. I was so excited until I discovered that my ISP uses CGNAT. I’m trying to figure out what I want to do next.
I am looking at using headscale or just paying the US$10/month for a static public IP from my ISP. If I go with headscale, then it appears that I wouldn’t need Yunohost.
I’m a newb at this so there’s a lot I don’t know yet.
my server has been down for one week because I’m migrating to OpenBSD but I got a weird error while installing, but yeah, everything’s fine!
Finally got around to dns-01 and acme containers today. Hooray LE signed wildcard lab cert.
Mostly everything is running smoothly. Been fighting with some zigbee integrations randomly dropping connection from Home assistant but it’s nothing too important.
Biggest issue I’ve been facing is how to make sure all my media is properly encoded so jellyfin doesn’t pin my cpu transcoding when I’m streaming to the onn boxes around my house. Debating if I need to dump the onn’s and try to spin up raspberries for each TV instead
I just bought aan IP KVM switch for a hundo, now heading to the store foir a case of frosty’s and re-rack my servers to make room.
Tried to setup a personal matrix server last night, got it to federate, next step is Matrix’s Element Call, spent too many hours trying to block the
/_synapseendpoint with Traefik because it is recommended by Matrix, no luck unfortunately.All this in hopes I can add a Music Bot to my instance or something similar.
I installed Jellyfin on my server and threw kodi on a minipc I dug out of dumpster pile at work. Works pretty well, but my server needs more RAM and the minipc needs either a wireless keyboard or a USB-HID remote controller to finalize the setup. Also ran some wiring in the house and added two network sockets to a room where the whole kodi-tv-gamingpc-whatever-pile is going to live.
On the server RAM I found some on ebay, but if anyone is interested on 64G DDR4 ECC DIMMs I have a few. I thought they were supported on my server motherboard when I took them out from a old server at work but it supports only up to 32G ECC dimms.
Hi! I installed LibreELEC in a RPi4, and connected to the hdmi of my TV I can control it with the atV remote, I don’t know if it will usefull…
I’d rather have a physical remote which acts as a keyboard so it’ll support waking the system up from suspend. Plus I prefer a dedicated device for that instead of a phone as I’m not a only user for the thing. There’s plenty of those around, only problem is to find one that works reliably and local stores don’t seem to have a lot of options so I might need to dig one up on ebay even if it’s a bit of a PITA to order from China to EU today with customs.
Trying to run a fediverse server on a decade-old Wi-Fi router and encountering some
unexpected issues. Making progress, though.Sounds cool, which software are you using?
I started out rewriting my network backup scripts only to realize I was adding functionality to a previous script I wrote to automatically mount and dismount luks encrypted volumes. I still want to type in my luks passphrase because I don’t want everything automated and prefer to include inconvenience as an additonal security measure in securing some of my data.
I also came to the realization recently that the reason I don’t relate strongly to other self hosters is because I’ve unknowingly been trying to create a minimal self hosted system that is more beneficial to small, low powered devices.
I’ve been using Alpine Linux, I install only the bare, older but well established tools and have been creating scripts soley based off those tools instead of seeking out bigger, more complicated modern tools. For example creating workflows by only using
rsyncor using https://github.com/RayCC51/BashWrite to create a blog that only usesbashand GNUsedto create a static blog site.At least now that I’m aware of this, I can keep an eye out for such projects or communities and would hopefully be able to contribute something in that direction.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with minimal. The way technology is in this timeline, you really don’t need a lot to get a lot out of it.
I have been experimenting with a btrfs raid array and am getting some new hard drives in the mail today, hoping it goes smoothly and they work 😬 All part of a larger goal of migrating my synology NAS to a purpose built machine.
Also got my first contribution and donation on my OIDC SSO project, which is really exciting!
Ey! congrats for the donation. I hope your personal project succeeds!
Everything here is smooth sailing. I have been trying to track down a bothersome Suricata entry.
202.136.163.11 PROTOCOL-ICMP destination unreachable port unreachable packet detected 202.136.163.11 PROTOCOL-ICMP destination unreachable port unreachable packet detected 202.136.163.11 PROTOCOL-ICMP destination unreachable port unreachable packet detected 202.136.163.11 PROTOCOL-ICMP destination unreachable port unreachable packet detectedad nauseum. There are three individual ips. One from Singapore, one from China and one from Romania. They are being blocked, so that’s good. Thing is, these are from realitvly ‘clean’ sources:
120.132.37.195 was not found in our database202.136.163.11 was found in our database! This IP was reported 5 times. Confidence of Abuse is 0%:On the server side, I have nothing calling out to these ip. That’s what was really bugging me. Nothing server side, just these three bothersome ip hammering Suricata. Generally, I would dismiss as benign and part of normal UDP behavior. However, it’s the constant hammering that makes me suspicious. Could be high volume port scanning. However, it could also be known attack campaigns like UDP amplification attempts.
Other than that, I might find something to get into today.
Trying to work up the courage to troubleshoot a very worrying disk error on the new NAS I’ve been building, which if solved will leave me the problem of working up the courage to try and migrate to the new server without losing my Plex library settings and progress.
Basically I’m frozen in fear.
Working on automating tasks so I don’t have to block out hours of time a week managing everything. Just got watchtower running and going to see how it does before trying out some other automations.
Just got watchtower running and going to see how it does before trying out some other automations.
If you find that watchtower (original) screws up the updates frequently there is a watchtower fork that runs so much smoother. I don’t have any issues with it at all. The original watchtower app hasn’t had an update in 2 years, so it might be something to keep in mind.
I’m actually using this one which seems to be more actively maintained than the one you linked.
Bookmarked! Thanks for that. Learning all kinds of stuff today.
In fact you must use the fork. The old one no longer works with recent Docker, due to API versioning. I found that out last night when I brought up my compose stack and traefik wouldn’t start, because it too needed an update.

I had that issue with Portainer recently. I had to drop back to the previous docker version, and held it until Portainer works through the snag. I didn’t think about original watchtower being affected. I just got tired of having to fix broken updates, and went looking for something better. When original watchtower worked tho, it worked well.
A recent t480 purchase may replace my second workstation tower, which I think is about to become my most powerful server in the cluster…
So nothing new hosting-wise, but that tower I can shove the spare 12tb and 4tb drives I have and net myself another 30ish TB’s of usable storage, more once I replace the 12TBs in one of my NAS boxes with 18tb or more.
Speaking of which - where the hell do I track prices these days? diskprices.com seems to be a mess of inaccurate pricing and shucks.top can no longer track even half of what they used to. What a mess.
