Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I am able to access the Linux shell locally or on the local area network. From within I can ping the gateway, but nothing beyond that.
Is there a tracert equivalent for Ubuntu?
I will say I get this error when trying to ping www.google.com:
ping: unknown host
The tracert equivalent that I use would be traceroute or mtr. If you can get a response from the gateway and access the server locally, it would indicate an IP routing issue as local subnet traffic is working.
Instead of pinging a domain name, what happens if you ping a public IP like Google DNS (8.8.8.8)? The error you're seeing could be related to a DNS resolution issue although that should not affect access to your server.
Ill try that next time it hiccups. I was thinking I should have pinged an IP address after I was pasting the unknown host error 🙃.
In further hindsight I shouldn't have restarted the server so I could try the things during our conversation. 🙁
