Actually plan things and research. Too many of my decisions come back to bite me because I don’t plan out stuff like networking, resources, hard drive layouts…
also documentation for sure

Gotcha, yeah this is running on a set of boxes that I’ve been using as my homelab for a few years. Some of those have graduated to homeprod and that’s where I’m getting stuck. I want to share Plex and the like with my family who are 2500 miles away.
Definitely would setup tailscale or a VPN between the houses if I was closer. At this distance, maintenance would be a nightmare even though my dad and brothers are very tech savvy.
How are those tunnels? Saw those in my dashboard last time when I was looking.
I’ve got Wireguard set up and that’s been good and lightweight for me. Also have everything firewalled off onto it’s own VLAN with ACLs so my data is locked down. That took forever to implement but loving it so far.
The internet facing stuff is on a completely separate box with read-only access to a pretty limited NFS share for retrieving content off the NAS :)
Gotcha that’s fair. Everything I’ve previously had internet facing has always been behind a reverse proxy with Let’s Encrypt, but it’s been years since I did that. I’ll look into the VPS reverse proxy option, thanks!
Hey one quick question… the Ansible playbook doesn’t look like it’s been updated to 0.18.2 or at least the instructions don’t state how to pull it. Any chance this could get fixed/clarified in the release notes?
