If this is for internal only you can setup OpnSense to do DNS records either through static IPs or add hostnames to the DNS records via DHCP. If you want this externally that’s a whole other ball of wax.

Neither require you to purchase a domain name. Just use whatever you want .internal While you can use other things like .lan, .internal is the only one that is actually reserved for LAN use.

*I’m pretty sure you can add firewall rules in OpnSense as well to redirect from port 80 or 443 to whatever port you’re actually using but that may cause more problems than it’s worth. If you can’t change the port in the app itself then, honestly just bookmark it with the actual port so you don’t have to remember it.

More and more are dropping s3. My Thinkpad doesn’t have it and I think some framework might be s2idle only.

My Thinkpad only supports s2idle (checked the bios no way to turn on s3). It truly sucks, the laptop won’t go 8 hours on idle without the battery dying. I used the amd-s2idle tester and it said the laptop was going to idle after 10 minutes but that was not reflected in real world use. Even after turning off every wakeup except the power button to prevent premature wakeup from wifi USB etc.

My only solution was to re-enabling hibernate. It’s slower and takes disk space but it works. Laptop can go days on hibernate with no issue.

I do get blocked by engines occasionally which can have a drastic impact on results.

Networking isn’t my forte but I thought IP addressing required layer 3 switching? Which is going to be dependent on your switch supporting it.

It will come back if you set it to start on boot. Make sure you set its priority to start before anything else that requires network connectivity. If you ever move to having a cluster it’ll be a real headache because you won’t have a network for quorum and so you’ll have to physically access the box to force start it. I would highly recommend going out and getting a NUC or some other dedicated hardware as a priority before any other expansion.

Yeah, I did it briefly to test if I wanted to use it before getting a dedicated Protectli Vault. But gateway and NAS are both things I recommend not running on Proxmox long term.

Router - for one you can’t form a quorum for a cluster if there is no network so you’d have to physically access the box every restart.

NAS - You lose access to any backups you’re doing and ability to restore if that node fails.

Which part? For the TV there was literally a wireguard app. I just had to install it on the TV and configure the connection to my wireguard server.

For the bridging I gave her my old router which I haven’t tested but I believe should support VPN bridging. I already have her on a subnet that won’t conflict with my network for that reason.

If it’s just you using it setting up VPN is an easy solution. I just use wireguard. If you have a pic you can run pivpn which is just wireguard.

Yeah it can be more limiting. Personally I got lucky and my mom’s TV runs Android so I could just install a wireguard client.

I will probably at some point bridge her network with mine since I want to install a TrueNAS box at her house for remote backup. So the VPN client will be moot at that point.

Eh the social aspect never was the point for me. It was more tracking progress. That said this was a good reminder to cancel my sub as I haven’t used it enough in the last year to justify it. If anyone has self hosted options I’d love to see those.

I think in one video it looked like 16 cards. I think he did multiple bifurcations of the pcie lanes. I think he is / was using it for protein folding as well.

Could always get super complicated and rotate your port knocking so no replay attacks. But now we’re just getting silly :)

No you port knock first to open the ports. Then connect the client.

Throw in port knocking for good measure.

Just mirror it locally in that small GitHub uptime window.

Servers have their place in a home lab but it’s not if it lives in your office. 64GB in a server doesn’t make sense though. You can get more than that in a MS-01 at probably a lower price and lower power use.

Yeah and I’m not seeing any mention of blocklist checking. I was sending email for months with no issue then the ISP apparently updated their PBL.

Could be a number of things. Battery life has significantly decreased. Can’t run recent Android versions, no longer getting security updates, or even software not running because the Android version is no longer supported. I’ve had 3 phones in the last 15 years or so (still on the 3rd) and I still have the other two and they run, but not for long without being plugged in.

Ancient yeah, haha. Glaces at win311 and slackware 2.3 VMs. But yeah it does require guest addons but is probably going to be the closest to built in support you’re going to find. I think there is a novnc audio project but have no idea what state that’s in and what you’d have to do to roll it into the Proxmox novpn version.
