I’ve been running OPNsense as a VM in Proxmox for a year on an AliExpress box that doesn’t have ECC. If I might ask, why do you have a requirement for ECC?

Before this box, I ran a Dell R230 with pfSense but got tired of the noise and 40 watt power draw.

I’ve had zero issues without ECC, so I’m just curious about your need for it.

My personal favorite is the people that say it is a hair on fire emergency but then you can never get a hold of them to fix the problem.

I love telling whiny users who claim they’ve always had “this” problem that I cannot fix what I do not know is broken. If there’s no ticket, then nothing is broken, so quit your whining.

Ahh, there it is. Linux user confirmed. :D

Ahh. Thank you for the info! I too was in that group who did not know! Can’t wait to see what the final picture comes out as!

For those not in the know, what is Canvas? I do not recall seeing this last year.

Same! I liken it to a knock off version of Mongolian Throat singing.

Two users and a handful of service accounts. I use it so I have a centralized user authentication system instead of managing multiple individual user accounts.

I tried a couple of LDAP solutions out there; Windows Server AD, Open LDAP, Samba4 in Debian, TurnKey Solutions LDAP before finally settling on Zentyal. It has a nice to use web GUI and can work in conjunction with AD RSAT tools that I have installed in a throwaway Windows VM for when I need more granular controls the web GUI can’t do.

All my Debian VM’s and laptops connect to Zentyal AD via SSSD.

I just cannot find a use case for Nextcloud. I have gone as far as installing it and sync’ing it with my LDAP for user auth and sync pictures from my phone to my NAS. All the other features are just a big ole m’eh for me.

This has just been my experience, so maybe I’m missing something that would just make it all click and make me not live without it. So far though, I’ve spun up and spun down an instance 3 times and never missed it afterwards.

3. Block stuff you don’t want to see. I block porn, sports & country specific ones that I do not speak the language.

Zabbix for agent / snmp based statistics.

Uptime Kuma for up/down states with a webhook notification into Discord so I get instant alerts on my phone when one goes down.
