  • I've had 22, 80, & 443 open for literal decades. Key auth only on ssh. 80 & 443 rev proxy to inside web services I want to expose only. Also host game servers as needed.

    Keep your stuff up to date and follow best practices for securing it. Use things like crowdstrike. If you can segment your network, go ahead.

    Unless you have a target on your head your main concern is going to be scripts looking for vulnerabilities.

  • My friend and I started a Satisfactory world together. That's about the only thing I've had time for lately.

  • Google it.

    Gparted is a partition editor. They provide it as a bootable iso. They have instructions on how to put that on a USB drive and make it bootable.

    You would boot gparted from usb, not windows, to do the work.

    But seriously, Google it.

  • Plug both disks into your PC. Then use a gparted boot disk. There you can clone the partitions and then grow your primary partition on the new disk.

    I've been using this method for years without problems.

  • I'll get right on rearchitecting the dns infrastructure of a large sprawling corporation, with mountains of technical debt from decades of acquisitions where they just mashed shit together. I'm sure that project will get approved.

    Don't be condescending, man.

  • I am 100% with you on this. At work the name should instantly tell me everything I need to know about the system at a glance.

  • I don't remember where I started, but for a long time it was Firefly characters. I had to dig deep enough to name a system YoSaffBridge.

    Then I switched to gemstones from Steven Universe. Which I still use for mostly for "end user devices", i.e. desktops, mobile, cars (mine is peridot).

    The functional stuff and the VMs I name by function. Router is router, switches are sw-0#, pihole-0#, minecraft, plex, ipam (yes I have an ipam for my network), etc...

    It's simpler and I like to be able just ssh/browse to "function" than trying to remember that ipam is on bismuth.

    Years of working for a company that did lots of acquisitions, where I had to deal with integrating whimsically named infrastructure, gave me a strong appreciation for a functional and consistent naming scheme.

  • Me too. I had a FreeBSD box that routed my dialup and ran a transparent caching squid proxy. Had a cronjob for scheduled downloads.

    External? Apache and ftp. Once cable was available had an IPsec wan with a couple friends for file sharing and "lan" gaming. Used samba to span the subnets into a big windows workgroup called "biggroup".

    I used to tinker with php alot back then. Made sense to run my own web server.

  • Chat was specifically a feature that wasn't exposed via the public API. You had to use the "new" website or the official app.

  • This is like the patterned shirt that my wife bought that had the seam down the front and the pattern didn't line up.

  • I found this which leads me to believe I may be able to pipe zfs send to restic to replicate my current disk backup strategy. Presumably I could fire up a VM and build a zfs storage pool in it to test that theory out.

    Replying to myself but I think this is a square peg, round hole, situation.

    If I'm starting over with proxmox I likely need to rethink my entire backup strategy.
