As far as i know, yes. My VLAN is simply "20" in the router. In unRAID, i also set it to "20". I think i might just install a second NIC and run the cable to that with the switch tagging the VLAN.

I'm sorry, could you please expand on that as i didn't mention docker? I'm not referring to Docker but i guess you're saying something about DHCP won't work on a VM in an unRAID configured (i.e. not a switch configured) VLAN. The unRAID VLAN is there to enable communication between a VM and a Docker instance but only Dockers can use the DHCP (if wanted). Is that right? But you also say "should be for". Should that be "is for"? Thanks.

I've set up a VLAN network interface (Settings > Network) to match my switch but i cannot get a Windows 10 VM to obtain an IP address within a VLAN. I want to be able to flip the VM into different VLANs to test things. I've tested the VLAN independently by connecting a computer to the port and it obtains an IP address (in the right range) fine, internet works. All looks normal. I've done some searching through the forums, and there's a few people who have really complicated setups and asking about Dockers with VLANs and PFsense and such. I'm just after the basic configuration to allow my Win10 VLAN to use DHCP if i connect it to one of the VLANs. The only connection that works is in the LAN the unRAID box resides. Thanks. I've attached a pic of my VLAN Settings > Network. I've also tried Auto and Static IPv4 Address Assignment and neither worked. The only DHCP IP address i got was something in the 169 realm and all my networks are 192. ...ok... i TRIED to attach a 12kb png, but it failed 3 times.

Hiya, i came here because i saw SpaceInvaders YouTube video on the subject. When i went into unRAID Apps, there's no less then 4 Shinobi container offerings (+ another specifically for Nvidia). None of the containers show updates - they only show "Added". Is that the first time it's added? Or have none had any updates? SpaceInvaders is from 2019. Thanks.

You enabled remote access? Isn't that what you do when you want it to be accessible outside the LAN and into the WAN? (Granted you'd need to open ports on the router as well i think.)

Hi, thanks for this Docker. I've been using it for a while now (and sent a small donation quite a while ago ) I got an email on 15/11 saying a new version of the Emby Docker is available: emby [2a2b..5c38]. My system is set to auto update Dockers, so i assume it has as in the Docker view it says "up-to-date". First time using Emby since the 14th i think, i now get "Forbidden" (just Forbidden, not 404 or anything else) via WebUI and the mobile app can't connect to the NAS. I did "Fix Common Problems" but it didn't find anything with my unRAID setup. Emby seems to start ok, it says it's running. I restarted it, and even rebooted the server. I had a look at the directory via the Console menu ls -l and i notice that some files and directories have root:root while others are abc:users. I don't have any 'abc' user. No idea if that's related to my problem. I'm not very familiar with Docker. I tried to look at the log, but there's no date-stamps and doesn't seem to say anything like "error" or such and i don't have a clue what i'm looking for. Suggestions/troubleshooting steps appreciated

Are you saying it's on the USB, but not copied to RAM at boot?

Hiya, sorry it's taken so long to reply. No - i never figured it out. I just accepted it as it was. As someone mentions, you can chown it after operations are complete if that works for your scenario.

That's part of the question i suppose - even if i do all these things if i don't have Premier will it make any difference? Do you know if that kind of performance is what i should expect without Premiere, regardless of the Nvidia plugin? I don't want to pay for Premiere only to find that wasn't the problem. As an aside, what do people do with AMD cards?

How do i know what GPU this docker is using? I have onboard Intel, and an Nvidia GPU. I ask because i basically can't skip/slide a movie. It kind of technically works, but it's unusable - it will take as long for it to skip to the point as it would just watching it. I wouldn't have thought it would do this even using the Intel GPU but thought i'd have a look. Perhaps there's some other setting i've overlooked? Am i reading correctly that in order to use the Nvidia GPU i have to install the unRAID Nvidia Plugin? Will that help without also paying for Emby Premiere? I've never used streaming software before, so i'm a tad confused.

This is a question, not a statement so please don't hurt me I feel like i'm going to get punched for re-opening this old wound, but i saw this comment which actually had me a bit worried. Should i be? I'm not sure if that is even valid anymore with bonienl's most recent comment but the dates are oh so close to each other. The quote is from the above URL. I'm here because i was wondering if could grab my LUKS password to pass to a script without me having to store the password somewhere or manually type it in. But thinking about it, it's actually a bit worrying that anyone could write a plugin that could scape that.

For the first time i've noticed the choice: The help dialogue tells us what it does, but i'd be interested to know how it scans the system and to what extent is the "system"? Are there any privacy implications at all? I searched the 1st page in the thread but it doesn't mention "emergency" or "scan" or "vulnerabilities". Thanks

Do the children run in paralell? Search this thread for a variety of keywords - i think someone else asked a similar question but theirs was more to do with long-running script that he tried to kill but it didn't actually stop the script.

A simple solution could be to put a sleep in your script before it does anything else: sleep 10m Unless unRAID has a specific order of things but i doubt it would wait for your script to complete before it started it's next thing. What if you had a script that lasted hours? Failing a simple 'sleep' command, you could try calling another script and closing the first one (i.e. not waiting for the child to complete before the parent completes).

Hi Squid. I'm trying to understand and hopefully fix a complicated problem i'm having, and i've been hunting high and low for the cause. I'm not experienced with BASH and scripting. I've learned a lot so far but sadly no cigar. I'm wondering if your statement has any bearing? I've made it more difficult for myself as i have an unusual setup. I run some scripts as my 'backup-user' - i.e. not as root. The user has a shell through the SSH plugin (it's also how i SSH into my box - rather than as root). I can't, or rather don't want to use root, because if i do it 'breaks' the archive as all operations on the archive are done by and owned by the backup-user. I could ditch the backup-user and do everything including SSH into unRAID from the clients as root - but i've designed it so i wouldn't have to. I've actually made a suggestion to Lime to improve the flexibility of the SSH landscape. To the problem: I'm using 'script' to call my 'borg-healthcheck.sh' script as the backup-user. I can't get 'script' (parent) to pass the environment variables to 'borg-check.sh' (child) nor can i get 'borg-check.sh' to return the error codes to 'script' so that i can notify results. I can duplicate the environment variables (most apply to both scripts). But this is bad practise and RCs still don't go back to parent script and without sending RCs back to the parent i can't use notify (notify doesn't work as non-root). I don't believe this is a user.scripts issue. It's either i simply don't know how to do it, or it's an environmental peculiarity. If you have any advice - i'd appreciate it. I have spent days on the whole thing (never touched BASH before this) Thanks. FYI running notify command as a backup-user user I get messages like this, which suggests permissions (understandably): Warning: file_put_contents(/tmp/notifications/archive/2020_04_11_1913_1586596404.notify): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/scripts/notify on line 201 - i swear it used to work in 6.7.2. 🤔

Thanks. Yes, i have useful folder names which is ok. Mainly for backup purposes, i have to rename them as i back them up. No biggie, but would be nice. Thank you for the plugin

Is it possible to rename 'script' to something else? When i do, it disappears from the user.scripts GUI.

Another question: When i run Borg with a user.script - it performs its operations as root (as expected) and the dir/file ownership is root:root When i run and rsync copy with a user.script - it performs its operations as root (as expected) and the file ownership is with nobody:users. How come it differs? I'd like my Borg backups to be nobody:users too - but it looks like the only way i can do that is with chown. I can't run it as nobody can i?

Are there any caveats to using email notification? I've got a user script that calls another script. Both scripts have an email notification and unRAID notification: Script email notification is to say something will start, or won't start based on conditions. If the conditions are met, it calls script2 (stored elsewhere) Script2 then does its thing and tells me whether or not its job was successful (that email notification works fine) unRAID UI notification works in all cases, and whether manually run or run through user.scripts UI. Email notification works for script2, but not script. The command before and the command after it work normally. I created a test script which had the exact same command (just the email command) and ran it via user.scripts UI and it worked - it sent an email... /usr/local/emhttp/webGui/scripts/notify -e "CronJob" -s "unRAID-backup >> STARTED <<" -d "$SCRIPT" -m "Logs :: $LOGFILE" -i "normal" Really weird. I can't figure it out. Note - when i ran manually for testing, the script was on the Array. I can't seem to manually run it from withing /boot/config/plugins/user.scripts/scripts/myscript. UPDATE: Oddly, several of my previous test runs have trickled through now. So while the script2 sent me an email more or less immediately, script dribbled them out between and hour or two after the script was run. Any ideas?

Thanks @dlandon. I think we're on the same page now, we're just having trouble coming to a mutual understanding. Through your comments and my experimenting, i can see that i can't mount the encrypted UD unless i've started the Array with its password. I'm not entering a password in the UD settings (as recommended). Sorry about that Have a beer/coffee for your troubles! It reminds me of the Monty Python sketch in the Holy Grail...

Whenever I use encryption, I like to know about how it's done. If the only key that is used to decrypt is stored rather than supplied (like manually typing it, or using a keyfile stored separately) then I'm wary. Does this same approach you've just described apply even if you use the same password as the Array? It still stores it?

Yes, that's how i understood it - thanks. But i'm still interested to know: When i choose my password to put in UD settings - how it is decrypted from storage? Does inputting my root password decrypt it - and therefor there is no additional encryption key beyond that? I think i'm twisting myself in a knot... Here's the crux i think: Is it possible to auto-decrypt it at mount, and if so, how is the credential called from an encrypted file... without me supplying a password?

Cool, got it: if the password matches the Array Encryption password then it can know it, if we have it set so (some people don't store the encrypted array password on the system - i think pre 6.8 the security around doing so was poor... not sure with 6.8+) If the password doesn't match, then its stored and encrypted. Where is it stored, and how is it encrypted? I'm guessing the root password is what will get it decrypted? Thanks.

Hiya, apologies if this is mentioned somewhere - but it's 163 pages here Can i please ask where and how is the password stored? Is it on the flash drive or the Array, and is it itself encrypted? Thanks.

I gather it didn't work? Same problem? Did you have a read of the posts i linked? If you can install other plugins though, then i don't know what the problem could be. That's all i have i'm afraid. Good luck.
