  • Hi, thanks. I've been testing out NextCloud and it might be a bit too bloated and buggy for me (document editor iffy on mobile and encountering files and folders being falsely locked and thus cannot be interacted with) so I might give sftp a go.

    Is there a dockerhub project you would reccomend? I've been looking at sftpgo (https://hub.docker.com/r/drakkan/sftpgo) as a option?

    Help setting up fail2ban for jellyfin both in separate docker containers?

    Hi,

    I've been trying to set up fail2ban for jellyfin both running in docker from compose and I'm doing something wrong.

    Can someone tell me what path in the docker compose file you use for jellyfin logs and what path you use in the jail.d and the filter in filter.d?

    Thanks

    PS. Sorry for low detail, but I'm on phone and don't have my current conf readily available. Will provide if necessary.

    help recover data from defective harddisk

    Hi,

    I have a Western digital 'WD My Passport' external usb harddisk and it has become defective in some way.

    When I connect it to windows I've managed to get access to it before, but it was really sluggush to navigate in and it would fail to open certain folders and files. Now I cannot get windows to recognize it al all. It powers on and windows says something like 'setting up deveice', but nothing more happens.

    If I open windows 'disk management' the drive shows up as 'Disk 1', 'Unknown', 'Not initialized'.

    I wes reccomended a tool called Recuva (https://www.ccleaner.com/recuva), but since windows doesn't recognize the disk I cannot tell the tool where to look for files to recover.

    I've also tried a tool called TestDisk (https://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Download), but it doesn't see the drive.

    Can anyone help please? :)

    Thanks

    help with generating ssl for freedns in nginx

    Hi,

    I've been following this guide to set up some basic selfhosted services (video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlcVx-k-02E (text) https://notthebe.ee/blog/easy-ssl-in-homelab-dns01/

    I've managed to get things working, but DuckDNS (duckdns.org) seems to be unresponsive most of the time. I then tried to register my DNS at FreeDNS (freedns.afraid.org), but the generation of a ssl certificate in Nginx fails. I get the following error message in Nginx:

     undefined

  • Do I need to enter the container bash and change something then? I tried adding UID and GID to the docker compose file, but it still fails. I updated the google docs notes if you want to see my steps.

    samba docker compose help ver2

    Hi, I made this post a few days ago: https://lemmy.world/post/27391713 And I've been trying a lot of stuff and it doesn't work and it's driving me nuts. Now I tried again from the bottom and wrote down everything. You can see my notes here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vPplJhjZ13j1A2mEzHGS1B_sPSThE3LHxnGW82_F6Is/edit?usp=sharing Can anyone tell me why I keep banging my head against a wall here? Thanks :)

    Update: It worked all along. All I needed to do was restart my windows machine and the errors would go away and I could enter the share. Good times.

  • Well, I'm not trying to share from within the docker container. I just want to run the samba service from a container. The share is an external hard drive connected to the server. I want to be able to move files to and from the ext hdd from a windows machine.

    Need tips for moving forward

    Hi, I got a small server as a for-fun-project and I really enjoy having it. With all the stuff going on in the world I would like to self host more things, but I'm pretty new to the scene. So far it's just an old desktop with Ubuntu server os acting as media server. I would like to add some sort of lightweight and preferably open source file share akin to Google Drive with the ability to save/upload, view and edit files on the server from the outside internet. I'd also like a shared calendar that can also be accessed from the internet. Do you have any good recommendations this? Thanks

  • There is a writer who has commented on toilet designs and cultures where the Germans like to study and understand the world thus have toilets like this. Where the French are more about getting rid of waste fast and efficiently much like their love for revolution. And the English are more of a diplomatic middle ground. Can't remember his name and couldn't find him from a quick search. I'm sure you can.

    I had a thought about movies

    I had this idea, and it's probably dumb, but hear me out and let me know what you think.

    I really like movies. Streaming services are currently the best legal option to watch movies afaik, but often they don't have that specific and maybe also old movie I want to watch - even with 3 different streaming services. Then I could rent it, but paying like 8 bucks every time I want to watch a movie is too much.

    If I could buy and download a free (free as in no drm or other bullshit shenanigans) digital copy of a movie for a reasonable price I would be all over that shit.

    But as we all know the greedy capitalists can't keep milking the same old cashcows if the users have a permanent copy that they can potentially also distribute so that won't happen any time soon.

    So my idea was what is we as a public group (movie enthusiasts) joined and made a company funded by something like gofundme or similar. The sole purpose of the company would be to buy rights to movies and hosting digital copies f
