Playing around with [step-ca](https://smallstep.com/docs/step-ca/) in my #homelab. It even supports upstream ACME servers, so you could forward requests for certain domains to Let's Encrypt, for example.

@rotnroll666 Fair enough. I'm still struggling with the "what client" question. GMail's web fronted is really good - I haven't yet found any OSS alternative on the same level.
Maybe a local client is the way forward. Need to revisit Thunderbird et.al.
My ultimate plan is to run my own SMTP on some cheap vserver (with static IP) and forward anything to a SMTP/IMAP combo in the #homelab

I have now reset my shiny new RB5009 four (4) times because I keep messing up the VLAN config.

Fun stuff.

#mikrotik #homelab #selfhosted

Update: the Omada controller stopped letting me make any substantive updates to my VLANs. I don't know exactly what's going on with it (the error is unsearchable), but it's a pain in the butt.

I ordered a Mikrotik RB5009. By all accounts a powerful piece of kit. I had a CRS-305 for awhile so I'm familiar with RouterOS, just never actually used it as a router before. Hopefully with the Omada gateway out of the picture the controller will start behaving better. #ipv6 #homelab #selfhosted

My fellow homelabbers: which sultion would you recommend if you would like to build a Spotify like Streaming Service for youre family with music you have in a local library?
Important would be that there is an App for at least iPhone/iPad and that things like smart playlists, multiuser etc ist supported so everybody could use the same big catalog but with its own playlists, favourits etc.
If have already found three projects which could be okay: Navidrome, Funkwhale and Koel.
Any thoughts about this? Which route would you go?

Homeserver. Nützlicher als gedacht - oder Zeitverschwendung am Basteltisch?

Server im eigenen Heim: Daten bleiben in den eigenen vier Wänden, Backups und Familienkalender sind lokal verfügbar. Aber: Aufwand für Einrichtung, Lernkurven, Pflege, Absicherung und Fehlersuche. Was spricht für - und was gegen das Projekt "mein kleiner Homeserver"?

Hello dear Fediversers,

My students want to improve their home lab backups and have come up with the idea of storing their offsite backups with each other instead of in the cloud.
My question is, does anyone know of any software or solutions for this? It doesn't have to be open source, but it would be best if it were. The option to encrypt the backups is not essential, but would be preferable.

Please boost.

Many thanks for any tips.

🤔 Laut Übersicht unterstützen sowohl #Nitrokey3 also auch #NitrokeyHSM2 #PKCS11. Auf denm verlinkten Datenblättern stehen auch vergleichbare Zeiten für Signaturen

Brauche ich nun für eine #homelab #stepca (smallstep-ca) den HSM key oder reicht der normale Key?

Ist #selfhosted eigentlich wirklich energetisch unvernünftig?

Ich betreibe im #homelab einen Raspberry Pi 4 mit insgesamt drei externen USB HDDs.

Unter Last sind das schätzungsweise 7W für den Pi und 10W pro HDD.

Ich bin absolut kein Experte in dem Bereich, vielleicht mag jemand mit Ahnung mal seinen Senf dazu geben.

Wenn ich das richtig sehe verbraucht ein guter Kühlschrank als Vergleich 100W. Mein homelab ist außerdem den Löwenanteil ja im Leerlauf.
