What I’ve been busy with lately

About three weeks ago I started renting a new dedicated server which is going to host both packmates and yiffit very soon.

Because the server isn’t hosting anything yet, I’ve taken the opportunity to play around and try out different configurations, including ZFS, LXC containers for small services, VLANs for better isolation ( which I did manage to get working ), wireguard tunnels, improved firewall rules, security groups, iGPU passthrough, etc…

Tomorrow I’ll wipe the disks, install #proxmox from scratch and make it production ready.

Then it should be as easy as loading a full backup from both yiffit and packmates to complete the migration ( but I’ll announce this last step in due time).

Am excited *wags* :dogcited:

    Golly, and here I just signed on for the first time after forgetting I had put in the application which got approved last month. :V

    Excited to be here though! :3

    Sounds super fun - I love playing with Linuxy tech. I think I’d have a lot more fun doing Linux and servers all day instead of software development, but it probably stops being fun when it’s a job, idk. Maybe when I retire I’ll give it a try.

    I’m actually about to swap my NAS over to Proxmox soon as well, as soon as some parts I ordered arrive. Not planning on doing too much with Proxmox, probably just going to install TrueNAS in a VM and maybe try to get a Debian or Alpine LXC going for Docker stuff.
