That sounds promising, thanks! You say LAN, but I can share this with people over the internet too, right?


I don’t know what kind of authentication it uses, but it dots appear to be susceptible to brute force https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/issues/242

But if I add a reverse proxy I would need it to just affect that one service/port. I’m running a publicly facing static (amateur/hobby) website - and other services - from there too and I’d prefer it to remain public.


Thanks again! Do I understand right that once I:

  1. Run tail scale on each machine
  2. Register those with my account

The machines will be able to see each other, but the machines can not be seen outside of the network of those machines?

Also, my Raspberry Pi is hosting some other publicly exposed services that need to remain that way. Will tail scale take over those too?

I found a nice overview video here for anyone who might want it: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=Kzyolu9yn0E


Thanks. I really appreciate the insight. I’ll start learning about tailscale as a priority.


It is plain HTTP. There’s a username and password needed to log in and access the music, though if that helps?


Thanks for that. I’ll look into tail scale (since you mentioned the magic word, ‘simplicity’). My domain doesn’t have any links to the pages on my server, and Navidrome is username and password protected. Would that be safe enough? I am using unencrypted http, though.


Thanks. I’m happy enough with Navidrome but if I can try ASA in parallel I might give it a try sometime.

I really like the turntable effect in the Navidrome web app, though :)


Thanks for clarifying. I might be sent to uninstall that other package in that case. It’s all working nicely anyway. Appreciate it, thanks again for your help!



You’re right. It’s just that the package to installed is called docker-compose (if I remember right. I’m on mobile now). So the command to install was: apt install docker-compose, and the command was: docker compose. Thanks man.


I got Navidrome working on the local network quickly with docker compose thanks to this video: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=7V5UUJlSknY

Once I forwarded the right port on my router I was also able to access the music from the web. Thanks for the recommendation, I’m very happy!


What’s the easiest way to host a music colletion (FLAC)?
I've tried a few options over the years, including SMB and NFS, XBMC as well as HTML with javascript I found online. I don't have a large collection of music (fewer than 100 albums), so hand coding things was actually one of the quicker options to setup. That's despite then hassle of hand coding the URL to each FLAC file as well as the album art. But sometimes the javascript doesn't handle large collections of FLAC and each implementation I tried had different quirks so I've sunk a lot of time into that in other ways without a satisfactory result. I've heard of Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, Roon and Servio. I just need something that's simple to set up and access. I don't need fancy features beyond the ability to play the music with a pleasant UI that can be accessed from the web (HTTP, not HTTPS). I'd be running this from a Raspberry Pi 3B which already has the lighttpd server running. I'm also considering just getting a portable, 128GB FLAC player with a minijack connection and moving on with my life without getting involved in networking at all. Any recommendations for an uncomplicated way to approach to doing this? Edit: Thanks so much for the helpful and enthusiastic comments! I tried Navidrome and had it up and running in ten minutes thanks to this tutorial video: https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=7V5UUJlSknY I had to install docker-compose on the RPi. Then I got an error which turned out to be because I also needed a separate docker daemon which I installed following these instructions: https://www.simplilearn.com/tutorials/docker-tutorial/raspberry-pi-docker In just 10+ minutes I had my music collection accessible from all my devices - thanks again!

Is there a one-line command to check my SSD? I have a headless setup. When I’ve tried on the past there was more results coming back than I knew what to do with.


I got tired of having to learn new things. The latest was a reverse proxy that I didn’t want to configure and maintain. I decided that life is short and just use samba to serve media as files. One lighttpd server for my favourite movies so I can watch them from anywhere. The rest I moved to free online services or apps that sync across mobile and desktop.
