I was trying to troubleshoot a home networking issue, and I plugged my laptop's Ethernet cable into the second bridge port. I thought it would recognize that the device wasn't a router and assign a local IP address behind a firewall. Nope. Windows was assigned an external one....
As I'm sure some of you noticed, very shortly after Ernest posted the update to KBin that allowed for abandoned magazine adoption, I took over this magazine....
I have a QNAP NAS which uses RAID 5 across 3 HDDs. There are lots of good videos online for setting up RAID (even DIY solutions using linux), but how do I know when there's a problem and what's the typical way to maintain it?...
Hi Selfhosted,...
I know what most will say, I'm not supposed to be connecting to my home servers from my work computer. I get it....

Hey!...
Hey!...
I'm considering getting back to self-hosting again, but I remember a problem I never quite figured out....
Yesterday I followed the docker guide for setting up a new KBin instance. Some parts of it are working, but it seems like it's not federating properly....
I want to self host my own kbin instance. But dream host (my current host) doesn't let me do postgresql unless I get a dedicated server (very expensive). And I don't want to put it on my home machine because I want professional hosting....
I have a PC I have installed Portainer on, with various docker services (home assistant, jellyfin, etc..) with an ISP supplied router fixing various device IP addresses and reaching out to dyndns....
The Google Photos feature of finding photos of a specific person in your collection by their face is the key feature my wife really loves. Is there a self-hosted tool (ideally Synology NAS compaible) that gives similar functionally I could have more control over how it’s using/analyzing our photos, rather than needing to trust...
I have a synology NAS where I backup my photos to. What would be the most cost effective way to encrypt and back up this data without having to purchase another NAS and install it at a family member's house. It would be about 5 TB and would not touch the data unless my NAS completely takes a crap.
Hey self-hosted community! I thought I'd pose this question to you all as you seem to have a lot of experience with hosting things on limited budgets with usually a single person administering!...
I'm hoping to find a build list for a general home server/NAS. The goal is to have a server capable of running 2-3 VMs along with a handful of containers, act as a Plex server, and act as a NAS for media storage....
Hello, I’m trying to host my own kbin instance. Mainly for fun and to see if it will work but also because that kind of is the point of federation....
Apologies if I'm off base here, but I have two issues I'm trying to solve and unsure where I should start - whether these are two separate issues to solve or if I should get something that can do both....
Depending on how much you self host, you may find it hard to keep track of your devices' host names. So what are your naming conventions to keep track everything? Some people stick to descriptive names, others pick themes, like Greek mythology....
What is the service you are hosting, which in your opinion is underrated?...
Hi everyone, me and my friends are thinking of making a Telegram bot to use GPT-4 as one of us has access to the API....
I need some help figuring out elastic search. My end goal at the moment is to get the full text search owncloud app working. They are both in docker containers (docker compose). I am able to input my url in the owncloud settings (http://es01:9200) and hit setup index. After that it does not index anything or I think pass on...
I recently upgraded my TrueNAS server to a Synology. While TN has served me well, I don’t have the time anymore to administer it....
I just bought a "new" homelab server and am considering adding in some used/refurbished NVIDIA Tesla K80s. They have 24 GB of VRAM and tons of compute power for very cheap if you get them used....
So, couple years ago i started to learn about tech, programming and self hosting services thanks to redditors ( not reddit the evil corp ), and found lots of communities where they pointed me to good resources but then ended up allocating more time to learning programming to switch career into that field and finally got it....
