Opnsense is only between the servers and the pi, the pi is in the same subnet as our consumer devices and the opnsense (directly connected to the router). The issues are both on the consumer devices and on the server, so the opnsense should not be the direct issue.

Still waiting for my success. Pihole randomly doesn’t answer DNS requests in time, causing a lot of trouble between my services. It’s happening since I switched to dnsmasq in opnsense (which is upstream for my local domain for Pihole), but also for external domains. Can’t nail it down and am this short of reconsidering my whole network setup. It used to work fine for over a year though…

Opnsense dnsmasq is DHCP for my servers and also resolves them as local hosts. (e.g. server1.local.domain) and Pihole conditionally forwards there. Since the issue is also when resolving external domains, it shouldn’t be related, but the timing is suspicious. I also switched the general upstream DNS.

Pihole does have some logs indicating too many concurrent requests, but those are not always correlating with the timeouts.

I know it’s DNS, I just don’t know where yet.

Wahrscheinlich Kirchenzugehörigkeit. Aber ich erinnere mich nicht, dass man da einen Ausweis oä bekommen hätte. Vielleicht steht Petrus am Eingang und prüft.

Thanks for the example! The reasons you mentioned were why I wasn’t looking into it more (using it for my local docs as well).

Need? No
Want? Yes

As someone from Northern Germany, I’m obliged to check out MoinMoin!

Thanks, I missed that.

How did you approach finding the proper plugins?

Yeah it seems like it’s doing too much for me.

I installed that editor, but that’s the point, I’m looking for something where I didn’t have to puzzle too many extensions together.

I’ll probably give DokuWiki another try. Bookstack is not what I’m looking for, but maybe I’ll have a look at wiki.js!

Great reason! On first glance it seems to be a bit too minimalist I think.

I used to host DokuWiki at some point but I inherited it and never really got into it. Maybe I should give it another try. It was also a native install and I found the updating mechanism to be annoying, but that should be solved with containers.

I’m using Bookstack as well to document my private stuff but it’s not what I’m looking for.

Was sind versenkte Oberflächen? Oder sollte es versiegelt heißen?

If that’s your first Mastodon account, the start on your own instance is harsh. You can join a relay in case you find an open one.

If you already have an account on another mastodon instance, you can migrate your followers, so their instances will get your posts on their federated timelines (and, more important, will show up under their respective hashtags).

And with production run I mean produced at the same charge or the like. As those have a higher chance of failure. If you buy two new from the same shop, odds are that they came in the same shipment etc.

The downside is they are more expensive, the louder part is for big servers I think, but not HDDs

And yes, I was talking about used ones, sometimes they’ve got the SMART values listed, sometimes I ask

I’d go for the second option. Just make sure they are not from the same production run with similar history (operating hours) as it would increase the chance of both failing at the same time.

You can also check eBay for enterprise HDDs with 90+ remaining SMART values. They are far cheaper than new and usually fine.

Hostsharing klingt schon interessant, aber die VM Preise sind für Hobbyprojekte und kleinere Gruppen/Vereine unerschwinglich. 60€ monatlich für vier Kerne und da sind noch kein RAM/storage/Traffic bei und Support kostet auch nochmal 20€ extra

Könnte man ja evtl mal als Anlass sehen, von Martin Hetzner, deutscher Milliardär, Abstand zu nehmen.

Welche kleineren, vielleicht sogar genossenschaftlichen/kollektiven Hoster sind empfehlenswert? Finde bei Hetzner vor allem die Auto Backups und Netzwerkfirewall sehr angenehm für VPS.

60mio, wtf. Das ist quasi die gesamte erwachsene Bevölkerung.
