Great idea!
A dutch song about Belgium from the 80s:
Edit: removed tracking from link
I added this! Your solution + chmod 0770 on my folder made it work. Thanks for helping!
I want to try that, but i've got to add: i want to access this folder from my desktop too. i added it the same way in /etc/fstab and it worked instantly
When I run: docker exec -it nextcloud bash I get: root@nextcloud:/var/www/html#, does this mean it uses www?
how can i check which accounts are used? I think my normal user account sets up docker, with uid & gid = 1000. I don't think i created an account in the container so probably root.
Another permission question
Hi,
I'm trying my best to setup Nextcloud on my mediaserver, but I cannot work out the permissions to my data folder.
My setup is as follows: proxmox server openmediavault VM with 8tb disk and nfs shares debian mediaserver with docker compose (including nextcloud docker)
the nfs share is set to 775. I linked it in my debian server through /etc/fstab. I can write to the folder without a problem.
In my docker compose file i linked /mnt/photos:/photos to the nextcloud container. When i login to my container i cannot write files to the folder.
When i change the share to 777, i can write files, but nextcloud setup stops and says my permissions are wide open, so it won't continue the setup.
I turn it back to other:read/execute and the container cannot write to the folder anymore.
What am i doing wrong?
I run a Debian server on proxmox with a nfs share to an openmediavault VM, just like you intend to. Works like a charm. When you search for Media Server on smarthomebeginner.com you can find a setup with Docker. I really recommend it, Docker makes it so much easier.
I'm going to try that for my servers! What do you use for your files (music, photos and such)?
It looks good, but I think it's difficult to work without a central view to view all the machines statuses. How can you make sure all your machines have run a good backup?
I'm gonna look into that! Borgmatic looks a lot easier than borg, but that CLI still scares me. I like working with Linux commands but something new like backups makes me want to click in a GUI to set everything up.
I guess I just want to make sure the pictures are safe. Next to that I'll backup my /home/user folder, but next to that it's not that hard to rebuild my VMs.
Selfhosted backup solution with GUI
I have a confession to make.
I've been working in IT for about 6/7 years now and I've been selfhosting for about 5. And in all this time, in my work environment or at home, I've never bothered about backups. I know they are essential for every IT network, but I never cared to learn it. Just a few copies of some harddisks here and there and that is actually all I know. I've tried a few times, but I've often thought the learning curve to steep, or the commandline gave me some errors I didn't want to troubleshoot.
It is time to make a change. I'm looking for an easy to learn backup solution for my home network. I'm running a Proxmox server with about 8 VMs on it, including a NAS full of photos and a mediaserver with lots of movies and shows. It has 2x 8TB disks in a RAID1 set. Next to that I've got 2 windows laptops and a linux desktop.
What could be a good backup solution that is also easy to learn?
I've tried Borg, but I couldn't figure out all the commandline options. I'm leaning towards Proxmox Backup Server, but I don't know if it works well with something other than my Proxmox server. I've also thought about Veeam since I encounter it sometimes at work, but the free version supports only up to 10 devices.
My plan now is to create 2 backup servers, 1 onsite, running on something like a raspberry pi or an HP elitedesk. The other would be an HP microserver N40L, which I can store offsite.
What could be the perfect backup solution for me?
EDIT:
After a few replies I feel the need to mention that I'm looking for a free and centrally managed option. Thanks!
Thanks for the explanation! But what is behind 'Tracking protection' and 'browsing security'? Or can that be bypassed by using Nextdns?
I'm using this too! I run it in Home Assistant. I just dont have any vpn setup now, i use the Adguard app
is Adguard Lifetime worth it?
I've been using Adguard Free on Android for about a year now and I like how it works. I discovered it does not block trackers unfortunately. I'm thinking of buying a lifetime subscription. Is it worth it?
It seems like an all-in-one package for all my devices, which would save me a lot of thinkering.
Or would I just go using other providers like Mullvad or Pihole in the future? I mentioned Mullvad because of the VPN service, I think Adguard has that included too. Would that be safe to use for torrents? I live in the EU if that helps.
Thanks in advance!
