Do you think a pi 3b would be enough for this?

I have two spare low performance 4TB drives I was thinking to use for this. It’s not quite enough though. Would be ideal to find a way to be able to have someone there easily add a drive when needed 🤔

Custom remote backup

Custom remote backup - Lemmy.World

Hi everyone, I’m visiting some family in another area of the country soon, and have the opportunity to set up a little remote backup server. Essentially I would like to set something up that I can ssh into and backup photos/videos/documents from my main server periodically once a month or so. Ideally it would be off until I need to turn it on. I’m looking for ideas on how to best approach this. What kind of hardware would you use in my shoes? I have a couple of spare raspberry pi’s I was thinking to use with an external drive. I was also considering something like those ugreen nas devices that have been popping up. I would ideally set it up and do a sync before I head there, and then just plug it in. Would wake on lan be advised for this?

Bike rack options - ryfa.com?

Bike rack options - ryfa.com? - Lemmy.World

I am going to start commuting on bike about 7km out of my total 20km each way in the coming weeks. My current bike rack is a SportRack platform for 4 bikes. It is heavy, very long, and doesn’t fold up. The place I will be parking is quite narrow, and I can’t have a 5 foot platform sticking out waiting for someone to drive into it, so I’ve been researching new options. I need a rack for one bike for daily commuting, would be nice to have an addon for 2 more. I randomly came across this company: https://www.ryfa.com/en-ca/collections/hitch-bike-racks/products/ryfa-2-rapid-rack [https://www.ryfa.com/en-ca/collections/hitch-bike-racks/products/ryfa-2-rapid-rack] I can’t find much on them, the three reviews on the site are positive but I don’t know if I trust them. The racks are out of stock on their shopify store, but are available on eBay and Amazon, seller reviews are positive but nothing on the products. They’re quite expensive, so I’m hesitant. They look really solid, aluminum like the 1up but cheaper. I like that I could have the 1 bike option on for commuting, and daily use without blocking my license plate, then attach the two extensions for weekend bike rides with friends in just a couple of minutes (what I would call a 1+2 setup). Has anyone here heard of these before? Any similar options? I’ve looked at all of the kuat, Thule, rockymounts options. I think rockymounts monorail would be a similar option available locally (though 2+1 setup, not my preferred 1+2), but higher price tag.

NFS mount disappearing

https://lemmy.world/post/21085739

NFS mount disappearing - Lemmy.World

Hi all, I’m having an issue with an NFS mount that I use for serving podcasts through audibookshelf. The issue has been ongoing for months, and I’m not sure where the problem is and how to start debugging. My setup: - Unraid with NFS share “podcasts” set up - Proxmox on another machine, with VM running Fedora Server 40. - Storage set up in Fedora to mount the “podcasts” share on boot, works fine - docker container on the same Fedora VM has Audiobookshelf configured with the “podcasts” mount passed through in the docker-compose file. The issue: NFS mount randomly drops. When it does, I need to manually mount it again, then restart the Audiobookshelf container (or reboot the VM, but I have other services). There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to the unmount. It doesn’t coincide to any scheduled updates or spikes in activity. No issue on the Unraid side that I can see. Sometimes it drops over night, sometimes mid day. Sometimes it’s fine for a week, other times I’m remounting twice a day. What has finally forced me to seek help is the other day I was listening to a podcast, paused for 10-15 mins and couldn’t restart the episode until I went through the manual mount procedure. I checked and it was not due to the disk sinning down. I’ve tried updating everything I could, issue persists. I only just updated to Fedora 40. It was on 38 previously and initially worked for many months without issue, then randomly started dropping the NFS mounts (I tried setting up other share mounts and same problem). Update to 39, then 40 and issue persists. I’m not great with logs but I’m trying to learn. Nothing sticks out so far. Does anyone have any ideas how I can debug and hopefully fix this?

How to repair peeling on cabinets

How to repair peeling on cabinets - Lemmy.World

Hi folks, I want to refinish and paint my kitchen cabinets, but before touching the doors I want to ask opinions on how to repair this peeling on edges of 3 cabinets. Looks like steam from the range and kettle did this. I was thinking to trim off the excess bit that has peeled and expanded, then sand down and fill with wood/general filler before painting with bullseye 123. Is there a better approach?

Hello, I’m planning a rather large trip later this year and have been searching for something to help me plan and organize. I’ve come across a few apps that are not exactly privacy friendly, like TripIt and Wanderlog. Does anyone know of any self hosted or otherwise open source alternatives to these apps?

Nginx Proxy Manager and OPNsense port forwarding

https://lemmy.world/post/7904416

Nginx Proxy Manager and OPNsense port forwarding - Lemmy.World

Hi everyone, I’m at my wits end here getting port forwarding working on my setup with Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) and OPNsense. I recently upgraded my networking gear, and everything is working great, I’m loving OPNsense and 10G networking. I’ve had the same setup for port forwarding for years and never had issues, the main change was the addition of OPNsense and a switch. Previous setup (I realize this wasn’t the best): ISP modem -> DHCPv4 with ports 80/443 forwarded to ASUS wireless router WAN -> DHCPv4 with ports 80/443 forwarded to VM on proxmox running NPM -> NPM set up with hosts to proxy services on other VMs/server. This (or a variation thereof) has all been working great for years, along with ddns set up as I have a dynamic IP. New setup: ISP modem -> DHCP off with ports 80/443 forwarded to OPNsense WAN via MAC address -> OPNsense NAT-Port Forwarding set up to the NPM host/port, rest is the same as before. The settings for the port forward are the standard I’ve found in guides. WAN address, any source/port, redirect to NPM host and ports. Tried the domain I usually use, no luck. Port checker shows the ports are closed. Tried the following: 1. DMZ on the ISP modem keeping WAN IP default/automatic and adding OPNsense to the DMZ, no change. 2. Advanced DMZ on ISP, WAN is the external IP, no change 3. Same as 2, but changed OPNsense WAN settings from DHCPv4 to PPPoE, and added the ISP login info. Received new IP, updated ddns, still no change. 4. Checked over port forwarding settings, enabled NAT reflection, still nothing. I’m between all these steps, I rebooted OPNsense, proxmox, switches, etc. Any ideas on what I could try for next steps? All of the local networking and external connections work awesome, it’s just the port forwarding as the last piece. Thanks! Edit 2023-01-03: I finally solved this, turned out the OPNSense and NPM configuration was all correct. The problem was a glitch in the docker compose/portainer. I had my ports in docker compose set to 80:80/443:443, but when the container was deployed, it assigned 1880:80/18443:443 because of…reasons, and I didn’t notice until going through it all line by line 🤦. Redeploying the stack/container didn’t solve it, so I changed the time zone to another city, redeployed and viola, everything works perfect as it should!
