  1. Good day!

    I want to run several different apps in Docker and  through the VPN. Somebody on the forums said that I can reuse VPN connection from binhex-rtorrentvpn in another container by using --net=container:name parameter. But his advice was for vanilla Docker, not unRaid; and I use Deluge, not rtorrent; and I can not make it work.

    Any advice, please? I want to make several containers share the same AirVPN uplink. And I think I need to use delugevpn as the central one because of VPN port forwarding.

    Thanks!

  2. A week ago I added the following extras to SMB configuration

     

    [global]
    case sensitive = true
    default case = lower
    preserve case = true
    short preserve case = true

    It gave me bigger speed up than installing more RAM, cache disk and replacing slowest drive, all combined. In fact, write speed for small files increased more than 10x times.  I keep big collections of < 1Mb files on it.

     

    Dixi.

  3. To migrate from 4 drive ZFS to Unraid on the same machine do this. If FreeNAS can not write to btrfs partition, use latest Ubuntu Server instead, it can surely do both.

    1. Boot FreeNas. Remove 1 parity drive from ZFS. Format it as btrfs. Copy data to it until it is full, starting with the most important. 
    2. Disconnect your second parity drive, format it as btrfs, copy the remainder of data to it.
    3. Power off, and unplug the remaining ZFS drives from power and SATA.
    4. Boot Unraid, add your btrfs disks as data disks, no parity. Start the array and do all the checks you want.
    5. Now that you are sure unraid works and all your data is in place, power it off, connect back one remaining ZFS drive.
    6. Boot Unraid, assign new drive as parity and build parity.
    7. Switch off one last time, plug in the last drive, *preclear it* and add to unraid.

     

    This way, only half of your data stays unprotected during move, and only for the duration of copying it to another drive. (part 2) Or obtain 1 more drive to be protected whole time and avoid all the juggling.

     

  4. I have read your message in the plugin. Unfortunately, it is not possible to set up proxy on the router, because proxy is a per-application setting. VPN would work, but I just got rid of VPN server happily in favor of Shadowsocks. VPN resolved on router is usually slow and not fit for streaming, and applying it only to specific 

    I am researching into a way to force unraid to use proxy. Unfortunately, usual and simple methods do not work, because HTTPS. 

  5. Hello from Russia. 

    Ever since our stupid govs started to mess with Internet, the CA plugin on my server stopped working. May be it is just a coincidence. Anyway, appFeed not working while Legacy mode does, for 4 months already. Updating and other tasks work OK, so general Internet connection works for sure. 

     

    1. Can you tell me what IPs it actually tries to access so that I may check manually if they are not blocked?
    2. Is there a way to make CA plugin access Internet through a SOCKS5 proxy?

     

    Thanks!

  6. What is the current state of hard links and symlinks? I have 3 file sets that share about 80% of their files yet need a proper file structure to work.

    I tried to do hardlinking both from unraid console and remote console on  NFS.

    And they both seem to work, but I am afraid if I can run into problems later. I can replace them with symlinks if it matters, but does it?
