From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Either self-hosted or cloud, I assume many of you keep a server around for personal things. And I'm curious about the cool stuff you've got running on your personal servers.

What services do you host? Any unique stuff? Do you interact with it through ssh, termux, web server?

truenas: plex/jellyfin, *arr stack

working on another (debian) machine to run nextcloud and immich, plan is to have a failover. Redundant machine would ideally be wake on LAN to save power. I already have commodity hardware for these two identical machines, otherwise I'd probably just go for a more robust single machine.

Mikrotik routerboard out front providing wireguard for one subnet. pi4 providing pihole on the wireguard subnet. This is a new router and I'm very happy with it. This coming weekend the goal is to correctly implement mangle rules (policy based routing) to combine my two WAN connections seamlessly.

So very standard setup for selfhosting with the exception of two ISPs

truenas is easiest to manage through the web service, debian ssh and VNC, mikrotik's WInBox is just amazing, but it's also the first "grown up" router software I've ever used. It's so much better than managing PF through a ssh session.

Pi-hole on an ancient pi zero w.

I've got a little MSI box with 16GB of RAM, 500GB SSD, and a quad core i3 running Proxmox. Home Assistant is in its own VM, I have a VM for a bastion host/jump box of sorts for a client's network (yes, I know VPNs exist), and then a VM running a few Docker containers: CheckMK, Dozzle, Uptime Kuma, and The TP-Link Omada Controller software. I intend to migrate those to Podman eventually.

On my desktop in Podman, I'm running Dashy, Redlib, and Dozzle regularly. Sometimes I run other services but those are pretty persistent. I use Podman on my local machine for my development work and it's just handy to have Redlib and Dashy right here.

I tend to interact with things via SSH unless it's a webshit.

Multiple hosts. Win2024/hyperv and proxmox

  • domain/dns/dhcp/ncp 2x
  • pihole
  • iobroker (smarthome)
  • sonarr/radarr/orowlarr
  • emby
  • sabnzbd
  • vpn-vm for torrent/soulseek
  • searxng
  • dav for calendar
  • caddy (for emby/dav from outside)
  • firefly (banking)

And some minor, less important ones.

All backup to a central server, which does a daily backup of the backup onto another nas. In case of emergency,just grab nas.

LibreCMC, a fork of OpenWrt, running on my home gateway that also acts as my personal server: Nextcloud, aMule, qBittorrent, Samba, dynamic DNS updater, certbot and a DNSCrypt client.

Steam and Jellyfin torrent setup. I'm considering adding nextcloud setup for fun.

I started to answer your question with a list of stuff and then deleted the lot and started again:

What are you really after? Do you fancy a challenge or what?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

RedLib (former Libreddit) Piped, e-mail server and Nextcloud

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Media server: Jellyfin, qBittorrent, Radarr/Sonarr/Lidarr/Prowlarr, and OpenVPN/Traefik/WireGuard

Misc: PiHole, Vaultwarden, HashiCorp Vault, and FreeIPA

VMware ESXi for the VMs, but I'll be switching to Proxmox soon.

All running in Docker or Podman containers on their own VMs. I'm trying to automate the deployment and configuration of each of these services via pipelines in GitLab CI using Ansible and Terraform right now. I also have a couple of Kubernetes clusters for testing and dev stuff on this server.

Accessed via SSH or an NGINX reverse proxy. I'm using certificates where possible, but a lot of the traffic between VMs is still unencrypted. I'll eventually force everything local to use Traefik, but for now, only a few services are using it.

There are a lot of projects on awesome-selfhosted and selfhosted that I've been meaning to get around to installing. Home Assistant and AdGuard Home are two of them.

OpenStack has a really good Ansible hardening project for securing servers that I try to always use. I also have a Red Hat developer license, so I try to use their OS when possible because of their FIPS and other security profiles. Some services just don't work with any of the newer RHEL versions though, and I usually fall back to CentOS Stream or Ubuntu whenever that happens.

NFS and Minetest (Asuna) server.

One game server, seedbox, some discord bots. And I ain't telling how I interact with my servers but they are cloud.

just assume that all of these are referring to the server components of these pieces of software
  • jellyfin
  • dlna
  • syncthing
  • samba
  • ssh
  • wireguard
  • i2p
  • sunshine
  • rdp
  • miniserve - simple http server, used to use apache
