Follow me on the path through various open source projects and my experiences with them.
As soon as a new article appears here, you will be informed by us. Simply subscribe to my RSS news feeds. Behind the complicated-sounding name is a small file that you can subscribe to with your Internet browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari ...) or a special RSS reader (e.g. Thunderbird or Feedly). As soon as a new article appears here, the program automatically retrieves the new article. The link to the RSS feed is: https://bsdbox.de/en/blog.rss
In this article, I described and updated again how important directories are placed externally in TrueNAS or FreeBSD in order to store data independently of the jail. So I can refer to it again and again in other articles.
This website uses https://getgrav.org as CMS. What is unfortunately missing is a version management system, as has long been available with Wordpress. It would be nice if the Markdown files from Grav could also end up in Git and vice versa!
Done, the website was also translated into English as part of the updates.
The Vaultwarden article series has been fundamentally restructured and updated.
Update of the article TrueNAS on pCloud automatic and encrypted backup".
Details have been adjusted and a video for the rclone Webgui has been added as a quick walkthrough.
If the ACME plugin in OPNsense renews the certificates every 90 days, all services based on these certificates (HAProxy) will need a restart. In this case it is very advantageous that the "automation" can be done directly with the certificate renewal.
Certain directories within a jail can be swapped out to (datasets) "outside". This means that this data is stored independently of the jail. The goal is, similar to Docker, to be as little dependent as possible on the jail itself.
Having your own version control is very handy, privacy friendly and very easy to install in a FreeBSD/TrueNAS jail. This series of articles explains how anyone can run their own Gitea service.
With the default settings of the virtio driver under Windows, hardware offloading is activated. In a virtual environment, however, this makes little sense and slows down the network somewhat.
