- Comment on Backup 4 days ago:
Borgbackup to a Hetzner storage box is a great solution for large (> 100GB) backups.

So it turns out… you can’t connect them anymore… The feature is deprecated

(also, I wanted to just link my response from another user who had asimilar question but for whateVER reasyon, Alx won’t let me??)

So I actually just went to make a guide on this, demonstrating on my ubuntu 26.04 lab vps, and it appears the connect option is not there.
However on my 24.04 lab vps, it’s there. Same with my local 22.04 systems (yes I know I have to upgrade lmao)
I went to cockpit docks and sure enough, the feature is deprecated :( Dang.
docs.cockpit-project.org/…/feature-machines.html
It was really cool though while it worked.

Cockpit. Total gamechanger for me. I don’t have to ssh to my boxes individually to see what’s going on. Instead it’s a web UI AND you can connect basically every server you want to one instance.
github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit
That said. For individual servers? htop/nmon (nmon is FANTASTIC)
ps -ef | grep <whatever you’re looking for> dmseg tail -f /var/log (or whatever log file you care about) netstatthose are all that come to mind right away.
- Comment on Considerations when buying an LSI HBA? 2 months ago:
LSI has really good compatibility with TrueNAS and any Linux system tbh.
- Comment on Is this a good first homeserver? 2 months ago:
Wraith is fine. I have mine installed and it’s dead quiet. If you don’t like the noise, you can always get a 15-25$ USD aftermarket cooler, brands like ThermalRight and Cooler Master come to mind.
- Comment on Is this a good first homeserver? 2 months ago:
Your part list is extremely similar to my main home server. You’ll do just fine with the hardware you’ve selected. It is a GREAT starting point.
For context I have been running an AMD 5600g alongside 32gb gskill ddr4 RAM since covid, tho back then it was a 2600x paired with an ancient FirePro for graphics. Boot drive is m.2 ssd and I have 4 hand-me-down enterprise HDDs for storage. (I originally was using whatever spinning rust I already had on-hand at that time, but I have replaced them since)
