As much as I like the interface and idea of lemmy, I think the content traffic is not enough for me.. and keep going back to reddit :/

Hi, I have a home server (basically a NAS) currently running Debian. Basically it's configuration is as follows

  • debian host running 3 VMs

  • debian running inside each VM as docker host

I just manually install KVM on the host then docker on each VM after creating each of them. I documented the process so I know how to replicate it in case I need to rebuild.

I now dream of being able to automate the rebuild process using config files. I know this is done using Ansible.

But I've now heard of Talos.. (A thin layer for kubernetes) and intrigued. But I suppose I need a setup for the VM host to achieve automation through config files..

What setup are you guys using?

Thank you.


Thanks for all your suggestions! I've chosen to go with just bash scripting (given my simple setup) and keep the setup as it is.. Just gotta learn bash and virsh :)

Oh cool. I couldn't find any info on doing this. And struggled lots at I don't understand Iptables

Oh of you didn't want to mess with hardware setups, them it makes sense.

FYI, there are nas cases like the jonsbo, and Celeron processors that you can build entirely fanless too.

Thanks for the feed back. I started out with that post I referenced in my article, which had fewer entries. It didn't work. Caveat was although the online port checkers were reporting the port as open, it was not actually making through the tunnel!

I actually solved it by asking chatgpt!! I put in the suggestions and it worked. I'm also no expert on creating iptables, but once it was in place it seemed self explanatory.

I ran netcat as client-server to test it actually worked.

Huh, good to know. I'm out remember some of us have traffic in the TBs pretty month!

Haha incredible for a learning project ๐Ÿ˜„. Shining example of UX imo. Thanks

[-] ntn888@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Yep, that I agree with

What ๐Ÿ˜‚ I don't believe it couldn't get any more minimalist than this...

That's right ๐Ÿ‘ it doesn't even do notifications, although I wish it did!

So I've just found out about Lemmy. (Although I'm a big FOSS enthusiast)

Choose this app for my Android device, and boy nothing beats it's minimalism!

Yeah it's a popular choice for various things. But wouldn't it be against TOS using it for p2p and that amount of traffic?

Since you're already building a custom server, isn't it just better to include HDDs in there, and have a single box? (just get a bigger case, SFF for example) It'd be good for power consumption as well. What are you trying to achieve with a separate NAS?

For folks that are unable to port forward on the local router (eg CGNAT) I made this post on doing it via a VPS. I've scoured the internet and didn't find a complete guide.
