should I pick up an xserve for like 80 bucks?
I have a lot of HDDs around

i'm happy for him
My Dell T20 died today. Hope my ZFS Array is going to be okay.
Oh hey, that's my server and cluster.
do it, zpool them!
no way! I hope you don't mind me posting it. I just saved it because it was so /comfy/.
Can you tell us about it?
Cute Cluster!
Finally received the hardware for my home server and linux is installed.
I'll have fiber the first week of June.

To secure my server I was just going to do simple stuff. Example with ssh :
>only root have administration rights
>no root login from ssh
>only one group is allowed to use ssh and I filter them
>not using the default port
Is doing stuff like those enough or should I learn more about security and have a better understanding of those things ?
I intend to use this server for a lot of shit (ftp, media streaming, file sharing, eventually web hosting for some side project, chat/voip server... )
what use do you have of this Qt cluster ?
The server is nothing special, Intel Atom CPU mITX board with a couple of 2TB drives in RAID1 that acts as a NAS and runs any other server tasks I want it to.
The cluster is four Orange Pi PCs which I use openMPI to control. I have tried a few things on it, including machine learning but I have round the MPI stuff for python fairly clunky, including being unable to get Tensorflow to compile with it so it mostly just does TN-Grid and Universe@Home computing in boinc.
The fan is pwm driven from the host Pi and gets power from the DC jack on the modified USB hub, which was kinda dodgy considering I didn't need to modify the jack at all to get DC out on it, also the USB2 controller chip had died and shorted to ground which is part of the reason why I modified it for my cluster.
New to servers and home networks
Where do I start?

What do you wanna do?
You should also install fail2ban user
I want to know as well
I am setting up an FTP server from my house. Right now I'm attempting to make it happen from my RaspberryPi and external hdd.
What is the next step up from where I'm at now?
there's no ladder user
do whatever you need
I wanna make a personal cloud first.

If you have a raspberrypi or a spare pc, install a linux distro and get Nextcloud to run.
>Is doing stuff like those enough or should I learn more about security and have a better understanding of those things ?
Set up ssh keys and disable password login.
Then none of the things you've done so far even matters anymore
Do you know of any free ways to do it? Nextcloud has subscription fees of $2500/yr
The new RockPro64 ARM board bow features a x4 PCI-E card along with DDR4 and a 6 core 2GHz professor. They will probably release 4GB RAM models. The ARM server fantasy is one step closer to happen.

What is this, a joke?
Nevermind, which is the best CLI partitioning application - fdisk vs parted vs ?
GPT vs MBR?
ext4 vs ?
GRUB vs (U)EFI?
Wayland vs Xorg?
I'm literally installing Gentoo for a home workstation. Is it possible to run GNOME with OpenRC? I'd like to omit GRUB, initrd and systemd at any cost for the fastest possible boot process.

use SFTP aka FTP over SSH.
Its secure compared to regular FTP.
I think openssh supports it out of the box.
Dell T5600s are more common so you might have an easier time getting a good deal on auction.
Cfdisk
Gpt
Ext
Grub
Xorg
Eudev for openrc gnome
Can you assign noshell for an SFTP user? FTP is absolute dogshit, but I don't want people to be able to login using SSH.
Thanks for the reply but could you elaborate a little bit on why cfdisk instead of fdisk? What's wrong with cgdisk than? I prefer something like fdisk/parted with flawless GPT support.
Also, what couldn't be done without GRUB presence? Wouldn't it boot faster?
Xorg is going to be deprecated sooner than later.
GPT + LVM + LUKS + (curses, but why?)fdisk + ext4 (why not something fancy like zfs?) + GRUB + OpenRC + Eudev + GNOME
Bingo?
>partitioning application - fdisk vs parted vs ?
fdisk
>GPT vs MBR?
gpt
>ext4 vs ?
xfs ? btrfs ?
>GRUB vs (U)EFI?
Whatever you like, it's always on
>Wayland vs Xorg?
None, it's a server
>REKT for running a image hosting edition
story? it's my first time in this thread.
also on that topic, how important is a legal disclaimer on an image hosting website?
Read Links
>Legal disclaimer
Who cares. You're going to jail for what your users hosts anyway
I read that it's good practice to "hide" 401 and 403 errors and just return a generic Error page

Belgium is really cucked
I Have a Banana PI M1 running FreeBSD that I am playing around with.
Finished putting this together about 2 weeks ago. First time buying serious equipment like this before; working great so far

the guts
I wish the cpu heatsink faced the other direction for the fans but supermicro didn't think through their first epyc boards out very well
Nice, apart from what it is going to do to your carpet.
One bedroom apartment lol, nowhere else to put it but the livingroom :P

I've got a dell optiplex SFF spare. What are some interesting things i can I do with it? NAS? Firewalling?
So why are the heat sinks mounted at an angle?
>Memory to one side
Are you sure that's proper channeling config?
You might be slowing down your memory unless the epyc CPU isn't retarded in how it wants memory placement like intel.
Because the chips are mounted at an angle.
According to the mobo manual it doesnt matter what slots you put the ram modules in, as long as they are the same size/speed. Idk though, this mobo has tons of bugs and is running v1.0 of the firmware (the only firmware that exists). Time will tell
what are some useful things I can do with an rpi cluster?
I built one a while back as a school project, but they told me I could keep it and I really don't know what to do with it now
ive been hosting a personal media server on a tower a got from a friend but most of its power is not being used. What are some things I can use it for to make my life better?
OpenVPN
thank you
I have a spare desktop with 4 gigs of ram. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO WITH IT
Boinc.
I like servers. As an aside, does anyone know of better bouncer software than ZNC? ZNC seems to work OK, but I would prefer something that doesnt require or even have that big PHP web interface.
(newbie here) is it possible to setup and run a webserver by only accessing it via ssh? because i want it to run without a screen and keyboard. are there any alternatives to ssh ?
nice server cluster
THIS IS HIVE!!!
Currently running:
- Nextcloud
- pi-hole
- collabora online server
- PLEX Media Server
- SAMBA Server
I'm waiting for my 18U sysrack enclosure to show up. Once it gets here I'll get my Dell R805 loaded into it and finish building the two other servers I have. Should be fun to run a small windows DHCP and DNS server, a linux mail server and a BSD based virtual box for some internet facing web stuff.
Reposting from /sqt/: What have your experiences been like - is it worth it? Any other tradeoffs between the two options I might have missed?
i'm new to this kind of thing so sorry if it's a basic question.
i'd like to create a backup media server for all my family's pics and vids and also replace my dropbox/drive.
what's the difference from setting up a sftp server or your own cloud server?
FreeNAS is pretty fun. I've got mine setup with plex and transmission plugins with a separate jail to play around with nginx.
Sweet. I was thinking this. Do you know any Hdhomerun alternatives that I could get in the UK?
Jow Forums street cred most likely
I need mass storage accessible from anywhere, what's the easiest way to turn local nas into a fast cloud storage ?
parted, because no single character command retardation
GPT, because no primary/extended memes and less restrictions
For a server, btrfs' snapshots might be useful
UEFI and EFISTUB kernel, because there's no retardation like
>a script (grub-mkconfig)
>that evaluates a script (/etc/default/grub)
>and adds magic (locate kernel and accompanying initrd by guessing what the filename means, in /boot)
>to create a script (grub.cfg) to be evaluated by GRUB
Wayland support is barely there, so in that case Xorg
Bump for interest
U-NAS NCS-400 chassis.
4x3TB raidz1 setup.
Nothing much really. Works like a charm.
i do stuff

It seems like what you'd like isn't actually a home server, or a server of any kind, but a workstation, as you've said yourself. You may find more help in the friendly GNU/Linux general. I wouldn't install gnome if I were you though, and you shouldn't worry about boot times if your system has an SSD.
You are the bixnood guy arent you?
Go fuck ya self kiddo
>You are the bixnood guy arent you?
Probably not, who is this bixnood guy?
>is it possible to setup and run a webserver by only accessing it via ssh?
Sure. A lot of people run their servers headless, including in OPs pic.
i feel like i've made a huge mistake installing freenas
there's not much to do, ZFS is great but BSD is really limited, and "jails" is terrible
wtf do i do if i want to use ZFS?
You can use Linux with ZFS.
there was a major ZFS bug on linux crashing pools
I read that thread, don't update then?
Haven't noticed anything in the last year or two:
servers should be technically run headless cause of security issues, and also because it's useless to have a graphical interface.
Setting up a webserver is pretty easy
Check for rsync
>sftp vs own cloud server
FTP means you have a ftp client
cloud service is usually through web pages.
desu, if it's a personal home server, it will be the same result.
is it possible to use rutorrent on freenas and how

Version 7.7.7 had a bug that caused files to orphan when copying large folders from a race condition.
Version 7.7.8 fixed it
I never updated and dodged it by version 7.7.6
You're fine.
Install stable, update always a version behind, and love your pool.
