Let’s fuckin gooo! I’ve been waiting for this!

I’ll add on to this fantastic comment, this is exactly what I do. I use the DNS challenge with a domain I purchased to point to a private IP (my caddy server). I probably do it a bit inefficiently, but I literally have a dns entry for every subdomain of mine and have a separate caddy section for each of them for https. I’ll give an example of a simple entry that uses namecheap as the domain/dns provider:

https://subdomain.domain.net/ {

  tls {
    dns namecheap {
      api_key APIKEY
      user username
      api_endpoint https://api.namecheap.com/xml.response
      client_ip 1.1.1.1
    }
  }

  reverse_proxy 192.168.1.1:1234

} ```

I’ve had an eventful week, I setup a laptop as a Proxmox Backup Server, moved my VMs storage to my NAS so I could reconfigure the Proxmox server’s local LVM, and now I have qocw2 storage instead of raw disk files! It was super stressful, but seeing my incremental backups take less than 5 minutes was sooo worth it.

I hope no one would crucify you for it, you’re just trying to help :). I have a plan for offsite backups, but it’s nice to know about alternatives.

Interesting, I’ll take a look. Thanks!

Also, you might want to put the backups in a dedicated partition or drive if you can, so you’d just have to reinstall pbs in case it get bad.

Yea that’s the main plan, the laptop would hold the PBS system, but all backups would go straight to the NAS. if the laptop dies I can just find something else to put PBS on with minimal hassle.

Yea that’s what I’ve seen so far, just a backup of the /etc/pve files and other network configs should be good enough I suppose.

This is my exact setup! I love symfonium because it lets me download specific playlists that I want to have at all times (in case of bad cell service), and feishin for my laptop/desktop where offline downloads aren’t a concern.

I am still keeping an eye on Tempus though, if it gets good enough I might swap over since it’d be one less google play store app.

I just use a WireGuard VPN. Makes it so much more simpler. At this point I don’t think I’ll ever expose anything to the public internet, seems like too much of a headache.
