Paperspace has been around a long time, I have used them for years. The nice thing about their droplets is when you're not using them they shutoff. So if you just need a Windows Desktop for a few minutes a day, you can use Paperspace.

I don't think I'd use them for Cloudron, it would be very expensive to keep them on all the time.

@JLX89 Looks like that's changed now. Enjoying following their story. As much as I am an Apple user, the hardware is unbeatable, any lock-in tech needs to be relentlessly challenged, if they don't pay with opening these things up, make them pay with publicity. Well worth a sub...

Right.. entirely depends on the deployment they offer and also the licensing.

@LoudLemur Maybe paperspace.com?

Which site?

Sorry, I forgot to include the link. I have updated the post now. mxtoolbox

Setting up the sieve rule means I have to have the password and set all of that up.

Using the "mailing list" settings means I don't have to do any of that, don't need to create an inbox, and it doesn't need to be owned by any accounts (and cloudron users with email admin / admin / superadmin can modify as needed).

So I guess I answered my own question 🙂 I'll write it up. for people who ask in the future. "How do I set up email forwarding to external accounts without having to provision Cloudron accounts" == mailing list.

@luckow thanks for the SoGo -- looks like that does take care of everything.

I think some products expect LDAP data to be structured in a certain way ("schemas"). Not sure what pfsense expects to exist in LDAP. Maybe they are supporting OpenLDAP or something?

Thanks @necrevistonnezr for sharing the Intel N100 suggestion here and pointing out the following:

Sounds nice - but you're in price regions (after adding casing, SSD, etc.) where it could make sense to look at Intel N100 mini PCs (or used thin clients), which offer a lot more possibilities...

... and in your AVX: List of CPUs incomplete post.

And for completeness, you also said in Woohoo, I finally cancelled my Dropbox subscription!:

Nextcloud runs! on my new homeserver (Intel N100 / 16 GB)

NextCloud is what I am planning on bringing into my home (from the cloud). I just got a 12 GB DDR5 RAM, 512 GB m.2 SATA SSD N100 mini PC for this purpose. Dual NIC, one being 2.5 Gbps. Powered by USB-C PowerDelivery is a bonus.

I came here to start a topic on the N100, and the Alder Lake N-series in general, being a better alternative than Raspberry PIs and other ARM options for many here.
No new is topic needed. This Raspberry Pi one seems just right.

This Intel Ark table does not include a column for TDP, but that can be seen by clicking.
The best table I have found overall is on Wikipedia.

Several of these processors are very highly ranked in Power Performance (CPU Mark / Max TDP) category on the PassMark site.
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/power_performance.html

The N300 beats the N100 by having higher performance score, 8 cores and better 'cost performance per Watt', BUT... not worth considering now because:

Few PCs, boards out yet Being branded with the Core-i3, meaning they expect a premium Price I have seen for it is $309 (versus $128 for N100)

If you live in a place where electricity prices are not a big deal or it is not for 24/7 usage, then the N97 or N95 cost less, but also seem to offer great value.

For even less money, as the OP said, used thin clients are worth looking at and are getting mentioned by Linux podcasts recently, for example:
https://linuxafterdark.net/linux-after-dark-episode-58/

When the Raspberry Pi 5 was announced, we all said that most people would probably be better off repurposing an x86 thin client so we bought some dirt cheap new in box Dell Wyse 5070 machines to see if we were right. Spoiler: we were.

And searching for N100 versus Raspberry Pi 4 (or 5) you find a lot more talk.

The owner shown in the filemanager is the owner as such. Each file may have its own read/write/x for owner, group and other. To try to lock down permissions requires looking into each app and also the packaging. Also note that ideally all app code (WP, especially developer edition, are special here) is anyways in read-only mode.

To get a better and detailed overview over ACLs set, the webterminal is the way to go.

@girish said in Single Signon For Cloudron Applications:

We don't have a built in way to self-register (yet).

It'd be great to have one!

Security updates are installed automatically and the others should not be updated, as they might interfere with Cloudron required packages. So all in all updates are getting applied and the restart button is basically what you ask for to do this at a time, which works best for you and your user.

@girish Thank you so much, that was it. After shutting down, the emails came right away and I logged into Nextcloud as well. Thank you again for your help. 👍👍

ok update.
it actually does seam like a valuable option, and heres why.

in order for cloudron to run its "magic", it'd need a portmap, EG mapping port 1000000 to port 443.
so if you set, example, your tunnel, and put, rather than 1.2.3.4, you could put 1.2.3.4:1000000.
i'm wondering what people like @girish would think of this.
especially sense this has never been updated untill now.

@girish Thank you, somehow missed the thread.

Good find, thanks for sharing

Scaleway, IBM and any other provider that has added Object storage. So the better approach is to look for object storage providers and see if they have VPS offerings too.
