  • FAST FTP server: Minio vs Syncthing vs Nextcloud?

    I’m going with both suggestions by setting up rpi nas and stashing it somewhere out of sight. I can use syncthing to sync the media in case SMB share doesn’t work. It shouldn’t affect my internet speeds if it’s on the same network I think. I changed the format to h265 instead of h264 and played with the bitrate a bit. I’m still trying to find the image-quality-to-file-size sweet spot. I was thinking of using LUKS to encrypt the CR server, but I read that you would have to manually type the key each time the machine is restarted which wouldn’t be ideal since it’s at work and I usually run the manual reboots at night. I moved all the apps with sensitive info to another Cloudron just to be safe. The windows machine with blueiris has bitlocker turned on so I’m set on that front. I also got a UPS from Costco in case electricity is out and I have a non-BI backup security camera running as an extra precaution.

    @humptydumpty said in What's The Best Backup Solution Provider For Cloudron?: @jdaviescoates it’s nice not to have all your eggs in the same basket. I didn’t consider that you didn’t have to have the vps with hetzner to use the storage box. I do actually have a dedicated server with hetzner too, but it is at least at a different location. Still, looking forward to being able to have multiple backup locations so I can spread those eggs around! The storage box needs remounting after a CR update, right? That does seem to happen, yes. At least with the CIFS mount that I think I'm still using.

    Maybe I'm not seeing the big picture here, but we should let them continue using those free domains for spam, that way we can simply blacklist the TLD entirely. That's 60% less phishing emails right there.

    Yes, that was another can of worms (https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/12112/email-smtp-connection-closed/16?_=1721229448552). They thought the Hetzner IP (US server) was from iran and had it blocked causing the SMTP issue. I had to reassign new IP to the server and SMTP is working now. On my third attempt, I got one that's not blacklisted anywhere (yet). edit: tying up loose ends by adding link

    @humptydumpty You have to remember that 99% of providers have the login ‘root’, according to me the only provider I tested was OVH they have ‘ubuntu’. As for SSH security, I recommend to disable the password login, only with the key. Another option is to restrict in the Firewall in the Hetzner panel port 22 to your home internet IP address

    I update IPdeny lists (in order to block certain countries) with @imc67 script, see https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3795/firewall-spamassassin-automatic-list-update?page=3 It's not state-of-the-art security, but the spam and mail server abuse attempts have dropped significantly.

    @girish He likes running services like this so people can maintain anonymity when visiting popular online services. It is a calling of his. He stays abreast of what Free Software alternatives are available for sites like Youtube and then runs them on his (quite beefy) servers.
