What’s up, what’s down and what are you not sure about?
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
Personally I’m finally reaping the fruits of my labour and enjoy my stable homelab without doing much. One node went down recently and the other took over until I restarted so I was not in a hurry to fix things. Enjoying family time and only running updates that aren’t automated (yet). I’m about to dig a bit deeper into logging, probably setting up central log collection like Loki at some point, but not yet.
I use duckdns, and thus have a xyz.duckdns.org domain, that points to the dynamic ipv4 address of my server. I do not host my own DNS server, rather I rely on a cheap Website / Mail / domain bundle. There I can enter my duckdns domain as a CNAME DNS entry. Thus every DNS lookup that is not for the remote hosted Website will resolve the duckdns domain and finally end at my server.
I am not sure where you want to host your DNS server or also for what specific reason… If you don’t have a domain, you kind of don’t need to host a DNS, and every domain provider I had, also offered a DNS server with it.
