Discuss building, setting up your own homeserver and maintaining the services and demons on it.
[Quick Questions Quick replies] Why would I want a NAS/Homeserver? If you ask why then you don't need it.
[I want a NAS/HTPC/Plex what should I get?] RPi3, Asus Tinker or Odroid XU4/HC1.
Are you interested in learning Linux or BSD administration and configuration better? Becoming a systemd expert? Or maybe you hate that shit and want a cozy little BSD machine to run services on and interact with. Or practice more advanced and complicated networking setups.
Question: If the "hacker" had used tor with bridges, would porcorosso have been able to see if the ip was a tor nod or not? I don't really understand how bidges work. Thanks.

It depends on how GDPR compliant he was and how careless the skiddie is. Tor when used to connect to servers on the public internet just obscures the link between the server and your computer in a way that someone can't trace. If you do something retarded like search up the girl whose nudes you leaked that will still leak information that could be used to identify you and doing it with tor just means that it's a tor node that did it, which would introduce some uncertainty, but if you have a low traffic website it would be reasonable to guess there's only one guy using tor to access it at any given time.

Bridges are only used as entry nodes and not as exit nodes.
>would porcorosso have been able to see if the ip was a tor node Yes
Nah. I wouldn't want to run one directly from my internet connection, for what I would think are obvious reasons, and I don't feel like running it through my VPN service, so my options are limited to mostly-illegal or ill-advised methods.
Owen Watson
You don't need to run an exit node. I'm running middle nodes from home and on servers since years with petabytes of traffic without a problem.

Yeah, I'm just worried I'd still be drawing attention to my network.

Let this be a lesson for everyone: Bitrot is real, it happens, Raid + Backups & a UPS will not prevent it. Smart software/logs will not detect it. Your only hope is ZFS or ReFs. The risk/chance of bitrot increases as your data grows larger. Don't wait till one day your media library gets overran with "bad" unplayable files, files that at one time were prefect. That library took you years to amass. Do you really want to spend time redoing it all over again? Build it right at the core, then continue to use backups and a ups device. Do this proper and you can show your grandkids your porn stash without fail.

Thank you! burger, actually

>>Steam bot can you explain more?
Julian Parker
anybody used open stack?
i just want to serve iscsi and vms so freenas is more like it but i have hardware raid and zfs doesn't play well with my raid controller and I would rather use kvm than bhyve

We've moved office at my place of work and are looking for some kind of RaspberryPI-like device to function as a wallboard/kiosk for the support-desk so that various statistics can be displayed.
Any suggestions of particular software which we can use for this? - We currently use Autotask for managing workflow so all of the reporting is viewed on here.
On a side note, I also wouldn't mind having the ability to stream the output from my laptop onto the same display through the RPI. Has anyone played around with something similar?

Ok /hsg/, I'm on an eternal quest for a server that fits my needs (in particular being cheap-o). I'm working on stuff which needs Groebner-basis algs, and these eat a lot of ram. I estimate that I need at least 1TB ram. Number of cores is basically irrelevant, need about 4 with a high single-core speed. Also some SSDs, but hey that's not the problem. Do you think that there is ANY option below 2k dollaritos? Thanks in advance.
Chase Ward
>1tb >under $2k no
Christopher Thomas
Fug. What's your estimate? Might write some grant-application instead if it gets far too high.
Jack Murphy
You're a retard if you cant even google memory prices
64GB LRDIMMs go for about $600 per so about $20k just for the memory
Benjamin Rodriguez
Go put a TB of Ram into your cart on NEETBUX.com, that's the price
Ayden Price
lmao Ok, thanks. Guess I was too optimistic. Time to block my uni-cluster I guess.
Justin Cook
you might not be looking for the best deals, i plugged the ram into a custom server built by pogolinux and got an entire server priced for $20k. although considering that ram is over 2/3rds the cost, it's pretty negligible.
A Dell R820 with 48x 16GB DIMM's will get you to 768GB RAM.
An R920 will with 96x 16GB DIMM's will get you twice that.
I've been selling 16GB DIMM's wholesale for about $25 each. You could start shot-gunning offers to vendors on ebay and see if it gets you anywhere.
Joseph Long
That website is also ran by retards who let you build systems which cant work. It is specifying RDIMMs when the pic of your data sheet clearly shows the memory capacity to be 512GB with RDIMMs and if you want more you need LRDIMMs.
Ryan Miller
Thanks! I'll try my luck, anything above 500GB would be great, if only for a start.
Logan Rodriguez
>R920 These go on ebay for more than he is willing to pay and generally dont come with quad CPUs or all the memory risers.
I'm not sure about him, but I have a rpi b+ as a stream bot too. I just have minidlna and stream video/audio no problem. No transcoding of course, but most of my devices handle x265 no problem, so no need.
Minidlna Mopidy VPN Pi hole JDownloader
I only get away with all this in such an old device, because I'm the only one using it.
Eli Clark
kek, nice desktop config and here i am looking at mini itx boards while the answer was all along here
Levi Smith
Not stream, Steam A bot that is idling games with trading cards.
Shut it down to save power and then sell. Nobody needs something from a basement hoster. You can get a cheap hetzner / ovh for less than what you need to pay for the power.
