Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

A lot of people are saying WOL doesn't work over the internet, but I've got it working.
Basically port forward UDP 9 to your broadcast address (the last possible IP in your subnet), eg.
192.168.1.255
. Then send the WOL to your public IP which will then get broadcasted out over your network by your router.Typing this out, I realised this seems like a horrible security practice, so I'll probably disable it soon anyway, now that I've got multiple servers and a failover VPN.
yeah, tunneling into your local network and then calling WoL from there is the way to go.
Yeah, I only really used it when the computer running my tunnel wasn't on, but that's not an issue for me anymore.
