As this is a new community hoping to continue the old. I thought I would take the opportunity to make some requests.

I have an intel NUC as a server with

sonarr
radarr
prowlarr
transmission with vpn
jellyfin
daap
home assistant
organizr

Wish list

some kind of dns resolution so I can access jellyfin.server.local
vpn to access server remotely with dynamic dns
some help with ansible so I can stop using my docker compose file manually.

I have done some reading and in all honesty just haven’t had the drive to try for fear of breaking something that’s working ok.

Virtualmin does dns. Or you could do bind and power DNS web front end.

If you virtualize your workloads or have backups it makes changed less risky.

What have you done with Ansible so far?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Nothing. I have some at work for deploying applications I write. But I don’t manage them and they are extremely modular so a bit hard to follow.

I'm using freedns.afraid.org services 20+ years now in my homelab environments. You just run their script every x minutes, it checks your ip and if its changed then call their url and it updates your new ip. Completely free and easy solution. To access your server's services you should use your router vpn service (or wireguard).

That’s a nice idea.

I have been using duckdns for a while. Any benefits of freedns.afraid.org?
