Cloudron Forum

It was suggested that I post here since I am using this app, and apparently the only one (for now lol).

Info: Free Kemp Load Balancer

Pretty Good Tutorial:

@robi There is a pretty good tutorial (CloudFlare based)

about setting it up.

@marcusquinn Thanks for sharing. I personally don't have a dog in the fight, however I did discover kemp through networkchuck. I guess you could say I fell for the pitch. Although you are correct in the fact that the free version has limitations, I'm not sure if they would be limiting enough for a home network/homelab setting. The main purpose is to learn different technologies. Kemp's limitations are documented here.

Conversely, the article you linked seems to me a bit biased as HAProxy also has free and enterprise solutions. Granted HAProxy is open source and no limitations. I'm not sure about HAProxy, but at least from my experience, I was pretty much able to get kemp up and running from that one video.

In my initial experience with open source so far, it has been mixed. I don't mind getting my hands dirty but a lot of what I've come across is either somewhat outdated, or issues arise that no one else seems to be able to shed some light on. Sure, one might eventually learn enough to get things going if time isn't an issue.

Just my 2 cents.

@subven Sorry I wasn't clear on the domain thing. It's fixed now so no worries. I do have email working. I disabled mail in Cloudron (I don't see a use for it as it is just me), and redid the dmarc and other records that Google requires.
