I am using the Unifi Express 7 router for home. I don't need fancy shit at home anymore. what little advanced stuff I have at home is covered with basic port forwarding (html to nginx proxy for my personal stuff)
I do have an additional AP, the UAP7 Lite
why even route networks? once you have ZT installed, just mount the storage.
Oh n/m i read again, you want the PBS remote, not just the storage.
@Woti You made this job harder by not using a VM for the proxy because the host cannot talk to the guests. and you are trying to run the proxy on the host that cannot talk to the guests.
This is why you never run anything on the host.

And what good timing as ScreenConnect / ConnectWise was just compromised.
Patch was out before the news came out. I was patched same day.
@AdamF said in Proxmox and VM Replication - Followup:
Also curious if your clients(or you) purchase support plans from Proxmox?
No. None of the setups in use are complicated enough that there is a need for support from the vendor.

Re: Creating a Windows 2022 Server VM on Proxmox 7
How has this specific project ( 2 nodes with single disk ZFS on top of hardware RAID) been going? Any issues since you put this into production?
I am looking to do the same exact thing and keep reading all about how "ZFS hates hardware RAID", blah blah blah. Real world example, can you share your experience?
Thanks!
I have 2 locations running like this. none of them have any issues. ZFS does not care what the underlying disk is. no matter what the cultists say.
@flaxking said in Need and IIS based hosting option aside from Azure:
they could rewrite enough to upgrade to the latest .Net and not have to run on Windows.
And confirmed. They are updating to ASP.Net Core 7
So they can run everything pretty much anywhere. Time to test out Kestrel and YARP it seems.
@travisdh1 said in Need and IIS based hosting option aside from Azure:
@JaredBusch Where I've been forced to have hosted Windows, I normally use Viviotech.net.
I know I can do hosted Windows. I mentioned that in my last paragraph.
@flaxking said in Need and IIS based hosting option aside from Azure:

I assume you mean to make it ASP.Net Core 6 or 7 compatible? I would assume the new code would be based on current stuff, but I will verify.
I did some looking over the weekend and see how MS says that is all fully linux runable now.
I have a client with an aging workload that is currently running in house on Server 2012 R2. I need to know what options I have other than Azure. Azure is, of course, a valid option. But I never default to thinking Azure is the best option for anything.
It is a IIS based web application written with the ASPX code behind using vb.net (they plan to convert to c#.net along with this migration) and connecting to a SQL Server 2014 database.
Moving the SQL instance to SQL Express on a Linux instance is easy enough. There is no complex usage of SQL functionality that requires it being on a fully licensed version of SQL Server. So because of this, I think I can find any of a large number of options for hosting the database portion.
The problem is the IIS web server. I cannot seem to find much of anything out there. Of course, I can buy a server and stick it in a colo, or rent a dedicated server in some colo and buy Windows licensing. But I was expecting to find some kind of reliable IIS hosting other than Azure. Is there nothing any more?
@PhlipElder said in Can you run a Windows desktop OS as a server to run AVImark Veterinary Software?:
We've gone through plenty of audits where QuickBooks has a company file on one PC while there are two or more other PCs accessing that company file. No issues there.
Historically, QuickBooks has only used file sharing for this. The remote users are opening the QuickBooks data file over the network. This matches the restrictions last I knew.
AVImark is connecting to a database server running on the host computer to my understanding. This is not file services, print services, IIS, or ICS.
@scottalanmiller Who cares? Did they address not having the chips to make the 4 in any kind of quantity that makes it available for purchase?
@scottalanmiller said in ProxMox Storage Configuration Question (idk how lol):
In general, I actually think this is a negative. Making systems that are "easy for people who don't know what they are doing to pretend that they do" is one of the biggest causes of problems I find in customer systems.
No one knows how to use MD or ZFS. Instead they go to Google-sensei.
@scottalanmiller said in ProxMox Storage Configuration Question (idk how lol):
It means some random drive delivery guy can do the drive swap without asking.
It means the "dell" or "hp" tech that is just a random contractor can swap the drive under the warranty support wihtout needing us to deal with anything more than checking that the autorebuild started in the controller.
@scottalanmiller said in macOS 14 Sonoma:
macOS Sonoma 14 has released this morning. Mac users can update now. I'm just about to kick off the update myself.
https://www.apple.com/macos/sonoma/
No major features that I would call important in any way. but lots of little things.
Released yesterday. I upgraded to it with zero issues. I'll be using my laptop as my primary device today and tomorrow, so if there are any issues, I expect to find them. so far, nothing.
@GUIn00b said in ProxMox Storage Configuration Question (idk how lol):
Any advice is appreciated.
what is the point of this host?
how important is your data?
why use software raid?
who will support it if you are not there?
do they actually understand anything?
I use hardware raid 100% in client systems. Why? because bespoke is bad. Software raid is bespoke. No matter how old and well documented it is, it is something that no one in the majority deals with. MDADM or ZFS or whatever, it matters not.
I don't use it (hardware raid) because it is better, I use it because it is more easily understood and supported by the majority.
I saw a news blurb a couple weeks ago about some distro, built on Fedora, designed to run all the Nvidia stuff for gaming.
conference call this moring, then heading to the airport to fly home to chicago.
