I'm glad that the steps helped you, sorry I only saw your comment now because I wasn't very active here for a while.

I came back because I was moving from Windows to Linux so I had to redo some stuff, I'm glad I wrote the steps, by helping other I ended up helping myself

It took me a week suffering to get syncthing to work but it finally did. Thank you

Right now I'm turning it over night but during the day I find that I might use it one day a few times and another day not at all. Wake up on demand would be great, I'm worried about the wear from doing it like 3-4 times a day

That's impressive! I have less everything, how can I know how much it takes while idle? External device?

I don't mind the wait, I'm however worried about the wear from doing that a few times a day

That's a great idea that I haven't thought about, but I'm using couple of apps to view and the network thing is less convenient albeit attractive solution that I might look into. Thank you

Thank you

I think it has wake on Lan, so that means any connection attempt would wake it?

 

I'm new to selfhosting and I find myself rarely using the server, only when I need to retrieve a document or something.

I was thinking of implementing something to make it power on, on demand, but I'm not sure if this might be harmful for the HDDs, and I'm not sure how to implment it if so.

What's your recommendation to do so? I'm running a dell optiplex 3050

 

I would like to have a central Calendar that I could sync everything to it, from my email calendars and my to do list, is there something like that selfhosted or not, that is FOSS?

I just finished the SSL today, but have you gotten Syncthing GUI to work though? I can't seem to get it to work with the domain for some reason.

I used chatgpt to create the exact steps, commands and configurations I needed for my setup and achieved this the seemingly cheatful way. I used nginx and certbot. Worked like a charm. Congrats!

It's impressive that you was able to get it to help you correctly. It usually just spew things i need to fix that's why I didn't ask him, thank you for the tip.

Btw did you use a custom local domain name or did you use an actual domain ?

Thank you for the* so much wanted advice, it's one of the reasons I actually posted this, to get advices on how to do things better.

I've been trying to do that for a specific service running (firefly) but I can't figure out what to do exactly, about the domain name, Is there a way to do that without one?

 

I spent all day today trying to get the routing to work correctly between Tailscale, Nginx and Adguard.

Basically I wanted to be able to be able to use **http://immich.network ** to route to 192.168.1.2:9000

I wanted to share the steps I took so people don't have to go through what I did.

First a few things Local Server IP: 192.168.1.2

  1. I installed Ngnix and Adguard, in a Docker Containers, and gave Adguard IPs 3000, 3001 instead of 80 and 443 because Ngnix took it.
  2. I went to my router and made it use the DNS: 192.168.1.2
  3. I configured Proxy Host in Ngnix ..... immich.network => 192.168.1.2:9000
  4. I configured DNS rewrite in Adguard .... *.network => 192.168.1.2

At this point I was able to use http://immich.network finally. I installed Tailscale to be able to access when I'm outside but http://immich.network didn't work.

These helped me https://tailscale.com/kb/1019/subnets + https://tailscale.com/kb/1054/dns?q=global+nameserver

  1. I created a subnet..... tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24
  2. I approved it on Tailscale login

At this point I was able to access home server using its local IP 192.168.1.2 but I couldn't get http://immich.network to work.

  1. I created a nameserver dns with split DNS but I used my local ip.. 192.168.1.2 => network

Finally everything is working.. I have a feeling that I'm doing it wrong but I'm too tired and it's finally working.
