Its in the arch repos. Just pacman -S openvpn

 

Check the arch wiki for a good tutorial if you get in any trouble

 

Installed it already using this vm and it was really easy

 

Thanks! Appreciate the help. I am going to move to unRAID 6 this weekend and I am excited I can separate Plex and Sab so I can run VPN for downloads only

If you use PIA as provider install pia-tools, so easy to set up

 

IB, you may add pia-tools to your repo?

 

Thanks I just saw that as well. I currently do use PIA so I will probably do that. The only reason I was thinking about switching to something like airvpn was for port forwarding to run plex over it as well.  I share to a good number of people and I haven't heard anything more on them encrypting the stream between my server and clients.

Hi All.

 

Sorry to post again but there has been some discussion and my post might have been missed. I cannot see anywhere on this thread on how to use NZB Drone.

Installing it was obviously easy and I believe I need to run a command like this "mono NZbDrone.exe" but I cannot for the life of me find that .exe

Hi Dimtar,

 

I've never used nzbdrone so will be of little use to you. Do please split this into its own thread so it doesn't get lost in the noise of this one.

 

Just a quick hint mind you...

 

'find / -name nzbdrone'

Yes new thread it better but just a few tips, (set this up on ubuntu server 12.04 via unraid virtualbox)

on nzbdrone's website there is a install guide, BASICs: add the repo to source (not sure how that works in arch) then install. the biggest hurdle in you need to install mono 3.2, it wasnt hard but it wasn't very clear to a novice. once that is done your set.

found this hopefully it helps.

Install Howto

Enable the extra repository on /etc/pacman.conf:

[extra]

Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Install mono xz package:

# pacman -Sy mono

 

If you already have mono and nzbdrone installed then ignore that and I found the following at the nzbdrone github page.

Start NzbDrone

 

mono /opt/NzbDrone/NzbDrone.exe

Tried to follow ironicbadger's instruction...

 

1. Download some software

pacman -Sy nfs-utils autofs

 

2. Edit autofs config (this is what looks across the network to find unraid and mount it automatically when requested)

rm /etc/autofs/auto.master
nano /etc/autofs/auto.master

/etc/autofs/auto.master
--------------------------------------
/net -hosts --timeout=60

 

3. Enable services to auto start at boot (don't you just love systemd)

systemctl enable rpc-statd rpc-mountd rpc-idmapd autofs

 

4. Reboot or manually start services

systemctl start rpc-statd rpc-mountd rpc-idmapd autofs

 

5.Test it works

Try and navigate to your unraid box with the cd command, mine is:

cd /net/unraid/mnt/user/Media
ls <--- lists directory, just a quick test. if you see output, it worked.

 

I've done all these steps, but there are no files from my share in /net

 

I'm a bit unclear on Step 2 - should auto.master only have the line:

/net -hosts --timeout=60

?

 

When I try cd: /net/hpnas/mnt/user/Music, I just get"No such file or directory"

 

Tried editing the hosts file to add hpnas (the name of my unraid sever), but no difference...

 

I have ensure that NFS is enable for the Music share.

 

Using Unraid 6b4

 

Please help!!!

It works fine - I'd mis-typed the IP address in hosts!

 

Three things I learnt to link in NFS drives...

a) auto.master should only have the line: "/net -hosts --timeout=60" (which is in the standard file already)

b) you need to add the unraid IP address and server name to /etc/hosts

c) you need to enable NFS in unRAID Settings, then enable NFS in each Share

d) it seems to take a minute or two to find a new Share

e) it works really well - couldn't notice any performance hit

... OK, that was five things :)

 

cheers

Is this beta 3 or beta 4. There were some very major updates fro NFS between the two.

OK I hadn't spotted b4 being out.

 

I'm still v busy with uni for a few more weeks but I will release an update meeting all of Toms sexy new installation procedures asap.

 

Currently up to my eyeballs learning android development. 

 

Beta4 Looks great!
