cmon man i aint never done nothin wrong with nobody’s dang ssh keys. Jus lemme hold em

Caddy has been kicking my ass also!

This is very nice. Thanks!

What’s a better option these days? I’d be interested in trying to get rid of duckdns

I had truenas installed bare metal, with some jails for emby (jellyfin) and Adguard etc worked well enough but I wanted a little more flexibility.

I installed proxmox on the machine itself, and fired up a truenas VM and passed through the discs (for now until I get an HBA card).

Tons more flexibility.

You made my wife cry

EDIT IRL

Oh yeah I am on board with jellyfin and emby all the way 100%

Kodi/LibreELEC is just the full suite, especially with home assistant. Use the addon and enjoy one interface for every single piece of media, cutting out each apps “eye candy” and clutter, and enjoy your tunes with visualizers!

Add-ons for everything

Moonlight for game streaming, tied into my whole home remote control and home assistant for ease of use for everyone in the family.

It’s all pretty slick.

Once you get it setup just make a backup and roll that out on the other machines needed.

EASY KILLER

I DON’T SEE ANY JELLYFIN DISTROS

“JUST ENOUGH OS FOR JELLYFIN?” no

Though jellyfin/emby as the back end works really well

Kodi/LibreELEC is awesome for all the different stuff you can add in

EDIT for typos

Alright you and Joe McMillan had a great weekend we get it

I know this is coming up on my radar, but I am not quite sure where to start. Might you have any resources on hand to point me in the right direction?

Especially once I have everything dialed in the way I want, I’d love to be able to pull from my own repo to get stuff running again/spin up a new instance

Anyone have opinions about hiding this under a bed or other discreet location? (Closet, crawlspace, etc)

Maybe with hardwood floors or a closet that isn’t full of winter coats or something, but it makes me nervous. But I would like to kinda spread out the homelab a little

I’ve messed around with this a time or two but didn’t realize how deep the rabbit hole went! I’m gonna look into this

I like this way of thinking! Excited to see what smarter people than myself come up with

Also been happy with emby, but am also curious about jellyfin

I’m no expert; only been dipping my toes in the selfhosted water for a few years.

But my thought process would be all the main stuff on your main server and the redundant instances on a little backup

I was messing around with another jellyfin/emby instance specifically for my tunes and podcasts/audiobooks.

I think the app from fdroid was fintunes or finamp or something like that. Worked okay!

Been browsing that site for a few weeks waiting for the perfect time to strike

Holy shit I was there with you sir! With the zeros and stuff

Nah I knew exactly whatcha meant, cousin!

This is a great post with lots of info that I’ll need to dig into once I have time.

I’ve been running truenas CORE for like 3 years with adguard, emby server, and jellyfin running on it. 2 6tb HDDs in my zfs pool and a backup 6tb drive. As well as smb shares for the network.

Running all this on my gaming PC I built 12 years ago with 16gb of ram and 3770k processor.

Truenas has been awesome and I’ve learned a lot.

Recently picked up some thin clients so I’ve been learning proxmox and lxc containers (plus Linux in general) but haven’t quite figured out how to have proxmox zfs stuff take over for truenas for local network shares.Someone has already linked to the setup installing truenas on a VM on proxmox, which I started but haven’t made much progress yet.

Running game servers in docker inside lxc containers is pretty dang cool though

Yep I feel this way.

No point in pricing a single HDD because I’m shooting for parity on every vdev I spin up.

Still going strong fellow old timer.

We need to get colonoscopy soon

Whoa

Heck really? I hadn’t considered maybe that was some of my issues.

On proxmox I was able to get a docker compose Ark survival evolved server setup on an Ubuntu lxc without much fuss, a few other docker compose things worked okay also, once I figured out that compose isn’t going to create the volumes for me.

Otherwise they’ve all been too deep for me or require other containers to run which I lose motivation on.

Following for my own edification!

Damn. 641 is gunning for a promotion

Damn! In a previous comment somewhere else I had just recently shared my dispair at how I hadn’t found an easy to follow self hosted DNS server.

I appreciate this immensely and hope to enjoy it once I figure out how to install!

Keep up any and all good work you feel passionate enough about to crank out helpful things in physical reality.

My favorite are the ones advertising shit for illuminati. Like yeah we all know

Fuck man, I consider myself relatively knowledgeable with this stuff and desperately want to get into self hosting more stuff, especially stuff like DNS. and your comment just shows me how much of an uphill battle I have ahead of me.

My old gaming PC running truenas core and a few jails make me seem like a wizard to my family and stuff but I’m just a hecking n00b that’s good at following instructions.

Where’s the guide for establishing a whole alternative Internet presence outside of the current reign of control?

Lol I’m proud of being the same species as you guys and glad there are people out there willing to share

That’s where I’m at now. Same kind of issue as OP. Wanting more out of my bare metal!

Been pretty happy with emby also!

Also liking my dream machine

Homelab was a good spot back in those days
