  1. That is not a short story (<-- that was) Backup (just a note while reading) Finished reading... You need to backup and not "think" that multiple drives give you that. PARITY: Made properly, and a drive fails, goes on like nothing happened. That's what "parity" is for. You can replace the drive and (hopefully) everything goes on and know one even notices. BACKUP: Made properly, and a drive fails because the computer melted from a fire and is a ball of plastic goo. The backup is on completely different drives and you can "restore" your server (after insurance buys you a new one -- assuming you have fire insurance) . In short... Parity keeps things going and Backups ensure you never loose anything. MrGrey.
  2. It seems that SAB isn't getting what it wants. I've never heard of NZB.nu so, I'm not sure what to say. I can almost guarantee that SAB is working (assuming an updated configuration). I have no idea (again) what NZB.nu is (a usenet provider?). I'm sorry I'm not more help, but I think SAB is NOT the problem. MrGrey.
  3. I hope you told them you were running "PO"sense in a VM? You can't properly run OPNsense or pfSense in a VM unless it's your home lab and then you would/should know why/when it doesn't work. I run pfSense on a similar box, except... I only use that box as a bare metal router so that nothing gets to my Unraid box. Clear as mud? 🙂 MrGrey.
  4. Nextcloud. Do it right; or don't do it. Damn straight. MrGrey.
  5. Not true... (proven on multiple Android and IOS apps and desktop). You *do* have to give it *permission* to run... For "stupid" people; this is a good thing. MrGrey.
  6. I must be getting old... I can't find a reference to Unraid anywhere. 🙄 MrGrey.
  7. Duh?... SSD $100?tb and HDD $25?tb Gotta' keep "cloud" (synonym "Internet") storage cheap, yes? It's all about money (and maybe keeping prices high for the gamers)? MrGrey.
  8. I use Nextcloud. I wish Home Assistant could do it, but it can't (yet). Even Nextcloud sucks for photos, but they're backed up. MrGrey.
  9. I do a lot of that (not all) with digicam. MrGrey.
  10. Is this commercial or family? MrGrey.
  11. Remember: The more you use it; the more it learns. As long as mankind measures its success by its ability to replace itself; we're in a bad place. I have to admit; it's better than the previous bar of killing one another. MrGrey
  12. When this works, I'll stop using UnRAID... Maybe two weeks before GPT figures it out? DAMN... I was looking forward to zfs. MrGrey.
  13. As JonathanM said, Nextcloud will do it. But... You want to make sure you're secure when making things "public". I have a secure Nextcloud, but my wife won't use it because I'm going to die and then it will be gone. You've already lost, my friend. Only Corporations last forever... ( vomit, puke, false, whatever... MrGrey.
  14. Yes it does. Why are you (maybe?) using NFS? Why are you (maybe?) using nginx on a pfsense router? How are you using nginx on a pfsense router? MrGrey.
  15. If you care about your "stuff" then use nextcloud, despite it being complex (maybe it's complex for a reason?). If you don't care, use MegaDrive, or Google Drive, or Microsoft Drive, or Samsung Drive, or Apple Drive, or Amazon Drive, or FreeDrive (<-- does that one exist?) As soon as you trust anything outside of your control; you give up all control. MrGrey.
  16. I use nextcloud because as soon as you put your *stuff* on some *other* drive; it belongs to *them*, period! MrGrey.
  17. What's the most important share? Maybe work on that one, first? MrGrey.
  18. Is there a guide to do this? It won't work. (in my experience). If you want pfSense to route local it will, by default. If you want to "fool" it by not having any way to "publicly" verify a "public" certificate then, well, if you can do it, it's a security flaw. MrGrey.
  19. SMB can be strange (it's a Microsoft product). What is your end goal?... Sharing what with who? You show sharing your "appdata" folder and that's not a great idea unless your someones kid hacking Daddy's (edit: or Mommy's) Unraid server. MrGrey.
  20. Don't do that because it's (fill in). If you're an Unraid expert, VM expert, Network expert, and pfSense expert then it *might* be a cool experiment. Imho, you want your Unraid server (bare metal) behind your pfSense (bare metal). Of course, I could be wrong and you can call me a (fill in). MrGrey.
  21. But where do you backup... Yes. MrGrey.
