  • This is a great post with lots of info that I’ll need to dig into once I have time.

    I’ve been running truenas CORE for like 3 years with adguard, emby server, and jellyfin running on it. 2 6tb HDDs in my zfs pool and a backup 6tb drive. As well as smb shares for the network.

    Running all this on my gaming PC I built 12 years ago with 16gb of ram and 3770k processor.

    Truenas has been awesome and I’ve learned a lot.

    Recently picked up some thin clients so I’ve been learning proxmox and lxc containers (plus Linux in general) but haven’t quite figured out how to have proxmox zfs stuff take over for truenas for local network shares.Someone has already linked to the setup installing truenas on a VM on proxmox, which I started but haven’t made much progress yet.

    Running game servers in docker inside lxc containers is pretty dang cool though





  • Heck really? I hadn’t considered maybe that was some of my issues.

    On proxmox I was able to get a docker compose Ark survival evolved server setup on an Ubuntu lxc without much fuss, a few other docker compose things worked okay also, once I figured out that compose isn’t going to create the volumes for me.

    Otherwise they’ve all been too deep for me or require other containers to run which I lose motivation on.






  • Fuck man, I consider myself relatively knowledgeable with this stuff and desperately want to get into self hosting more stuff, especially stuff like DNS. and your comment just shows me how much of an uphill battle I have ahead of me.

    My old gaming PC running truenas core and a few jails make me seem like a wizard to my family and stuff but I’m just a hecking n00b that’s good at following instructions.

    Where’s the guide for establishing a whole alternative Internet presence outside of the current reign of control?

    Lol I’m proud of being the same species as you guys and glad there are people out there willing to share
