That is not correct. A VPN would be one method but you can also just expose the service to the internet in a number of ways and accomplish the same thing Plex provides.

No. You have to expose your server to the internet in some way bit you don’t have to set up some sort of VPN. There are plenty of people who will tell you how awful of an idea it is but if you make smart choices it’s not a big deal.

You should build the hardware around what your compute requirements dictate. A NAS needs little in the area if compute power but Minecraft could be a little demanding. Review the Minecraft server requirements and build based on that. Or build to Max out your budget and get the best you can up to that point.

The -R is the recursive switch

I just expose it to the internet.

OnlyOffice has been working fine for me though I’ve not used it in serious capacity.

I initially started with Collabora but for some reason I couldn’t get it working. This is surely not an issue with the product though and entirely my fault.

Yeah the keyboard that close to the bowl is actively distressing me.

Are either of those brands designed with the same level of user serviceability in mind?

The main drive for framework is how easy they are to repair or mod along with their varying degrees of modularity (such as their swappable ports).

Because he’s a blog spammer. Sure the question is valid but his “article” is just links to various youtube videos. The blog itself has zero substance.

Not like there’s much to read in the first place.

Are you using pihole to also create custom local DNS records?

Set up what you want on what you already have and if your workload is more than your hardware can handle then upgrade.

Overall most of what you rattled off isn’t too resource heavy but 12gb of memory isnt exactly a lot and i dont know what your minecraft server will eat up.

Alternatively look up the recommended minimum specs for each of your desired applications and add up the needs.

Additionally if this isnt going to be a headless system and you want a desktop gui that consumes resources as well.

That sounds more or less to be exactly what I’m doing with NPM currently. I don’t see how it’s easier to configure as all I did was fire up the NPM container, log in, and add my host targets.

NPM also handles SSL both standard http verification as well as DNS auth for wildcards.

Whats wrong with NPM?

Its just a computer, nothing more. You would do exactly the same thing as you would on a desktop or vps.

No you do not have to plug in both power cords but if both aren’t plugged in it may blare an alarm. If so plug in the other or just remove the redundant PSU.

+1 for restic. I have additionally started using autorestic with it and have been happy how it operates.

I just recently learned this.

For OsmAnd, go to search, then the categories tab, and then hit “Online Search”.

Voila, address lookup.

You never specified what specs you want/require

In the scope of wireguard it’ll just be a matter of you building appropriate firewall rules.

Since you want their internet traffic to go through you then i assime you’re effectively pushing a 0.0.0.0/0 route to your clients. You then need to add firewall rules on your server to block traffic to its local subnet and in the future allow traffic to only your jellyfin server.

This is also pretty simple and nothing wrong with that setup.

You’re probably better off looking for hardware to meet your spec requirements and then looking into its Linux support.
