I was attempting to connect 3 PC’s (Personal and two servers) via the TL-SG105 un-managed network switch. Beforehand i just connected one server and the personal pc into another switch i have. But i got this switch to accommodate this new server. However it seems as soon as i plugged in and turned on the new switch all of a...

I am looking to replace two Powershield 1600VA UPS that I have sitting, inaccessible, at the bottom of my 12U under-desk rack, and I am hoping that a 3000VA 2U rack mount UPS will work for me. I have a windows workstation and a Linux server each in a in 4U case that need backup power. They currently stay up for about 40 minutes...

For the last 6 months or so I’ve been working on Pinepods. I have never been able to find the perfect self-hosted podcast app that I wanted to use. podgrab’s player is rather lackluster and misses a lot of features that I would like....

Do your chats look like this? Do you always forget which contacts use which apps? Do you wish there was a way to have all your chats in just one place?...

We’re renovating a house and I’m looking to add some smart home devices in the home. This gives me a perfect excuse to renew my current home network setup. I currently have a simple setup: my ISP router + an unmanaged 16port switch with 2 Unifi AC Pro APs (feed using PoE injectors). I want to give the 2 Unifi APs to friends...

So right now my server (unRAID) is a PC, with a PCI SATA card installed hooked up to 6 HDD’s, 2 SSD’s and an NVME. I also have a 1070 in there for transcoding and a few other things....

I have a bunch of equipment on my rack that has AC adapters as part of the cable. How do people manage those so that they’re secured and out of the way?

Just cleaned out mt garage, closet, and attic. No clue why I kept every single box of anything electronic/tech based in the last ten years. I just tossed boxes for phones I haven’t had in years, old CPU and heat sync boxes, boxes for 100mbps nics, old modems I don’t have anymore. I’ve never needed any of these and have...

Hi,...

I accidentally cooked my current Opnsense router last night trying to shoehorn an M.2 2.5g nic into it. So I’m looking for recommendations for something new....

I just recently moved a bunch of my services to docker compose and it is a breeze to setup. All you need is a config file and your squared away. No more dealing with lxc or manually configuring software. Just write a config and your done.

I’m looking for security cameras that will integrate with my home server and nas. I want ones that record to my nas without some BS subscription service, and ideally run FOSS server logic I can deploy on my server. I’ve got one camera now that sorta does what I want, except the software isn’t FOSS and I’ve been unable to...

After a few conversations with people on Lemmy and other places it became clear to me that most aren’t aware of what it can do and how much more robust it is compared to the usual “jankiness” we’re used to. In this article I highlight less known features and give out a few practice examples on how to leverage Systemd to...

As far as I know, the only main reason to have a high clock speed CPU in a server is for game servers, at least for me. (And also for a router, but that doesont really apply here)....

I’ve got both Heimdall and Pi-Hole running in docker. They both work fine, but I’d like to get the Pi-Hole advanced statistics in Heimdall. The others, I just put on the bridge network, but I’m not sure I can have the Pi-Hole on bridge and the macvlan network. Is that possible, or is there a better way to accomplish this?

Edit: new cable fixed it. The otherone wasnt crossover....

Let me know your hits to choose an UPS for a (small) homelab....

Hi all, first time posting for tech support on lemmy!...

I’m trying to find a video that demonstrated automated container image updates for Kubernetes, similar to Watchtower for Docker. I believe the video was by @geerlingguy but I can’t seem to find it. The closest functionality that I can find to what I recall from the video is k8s-digester. Some key features that were discussed...
