Google Photos syncing to TrueNas - Lemmy.world
Like many of us, I am trying to break free of depending on Google so much. I’ve
made some progress in many areas thanks to this awesome community. I take a lot
of photos with my phone but I don’t know the best way to sync those photos into
my TrueNas/Immich setup. I am aware of Takeout which I have used to seed it. I
am also aware of gphotos-sync [https://pypi.org/project/gphotos-sync/
[https://pypi.org/project/gphotos-sync/]] but Google has crippled their API and
don’t allow for Original quality photos with EXIF data. What are you guys/gals
doing to periodically sync their photos into your homelab?
Help with Routing - Lemmy.world
I am not very experienced with networking and as I build out my services on prem
I have come to this community for help and support. I have done a lot of reading
about subnets and masking and the like and I semi-understand how it works and
what I want to do but I don’t know how to actually do it. Thanks to this
community I have a OPNSense Router that I installed on a desktop computer where
I purchased a 2x1gb NIC to install. I’ve learned how to open ports and how to
NAT/forward even with reflections for my https local services. I just can’t
figure this out. I drew my network topology and put it here:
https://imgur.com/a/XY8V5Sl [https://imgur.com/a/XY8V5Sl] My wired network is
192.168.1.0/24 meaning 255.255.255.0. My wireless is Google Nest Wifi which
limits me a bit. It is using 192.168.86.0/24. The gateway for both networks is
my opnsense router 192.168.1.1. I want to create a route between 192.168.86.0/24
and 192.168.1.0/24. I believe one way to do it is to use 255.255.0.0 meaning /16
but I don’t know where to make that change and since the Google Wifi uses its
own DHCP, i am not sure I can change that properly. My preference is to leave
Google Wifi alone (its a piece a shit, by the way, don’t buy it) and my
expectation is that I can create a route in opnsense to ‘bridge’ the two
different subnets. Am i correct? If not, can you help me understand? If i am
correct, can you guide me?
Help understanding options for network names

Help understanding options for network names - Lemmy.world
I am building up a selfhosted homelab after a few years of building up services
on a single old desktop computer that I bought for $300. I had installed Ubuntu
on it, and upgraded the RAM, etc and basically just used Docker to stand-up
various services that all of you would be familiar with. As I grew my use, it
started to get more difficult to manage ports and networks and so I decided to
make an investment and buy a used HP380 G8 server and installed proxmox. I love
it. The problem is now instead of a proliferation of ports now I have a
proliferation of ips. Also, my damn Internet provider doesn’t allow me to
disable DHCP and its “reserve ip” is broken. It has an option for “bridge mode”
which seems to allow me to make it simply a gateway but I haven’t tried that
mostly because I don’t want to impact my family during the day/night when they
are using the network. What I have tried to setup various nameservers but they
aren’t doing what I want. I installed unbound yesterday to play around and it
works but I don’t know how to get the IP address/Name from proxmox over to the
/etc/unbound.conf file for example. My question is simply, what do you guys use
to keep track of your IPs? Ideally, I could have something in Proxmox that
registers the name/ip that I could patch into pihole or unbound or dnsmasq and
fairly easily be able to manage that. Any advice?

I am thinking about buying a 3d printer but I have no idea what I would do with
it. I did some blender training and made a donut but it did not really inspire
me. I browsed thingverse and some other sharing sites. Nothing really caught my
eye. I think something that would are mechanical kits for making gears or small
machines etc. Printing a mechanically true LS1 V8 for example kind of interests
me. Any thoughts to share?
