Good MMorning from my Robotics Lab! This is Shadow_8472 and today I am rebrainstorming how I approach my home server. let’s get started!
Disclaimer : as I write this on Sunday evening, I’m in a power outage, and I only have 44 minutes of DNS service on ButtonMash’s UPS. GoldenOakLibry is shut down, my progress is hung up on DerpyChips without a UPS, and I’m writing as fast as I can on my tablet, which is not cooperating well.
Over this blog, my one elusive goal has been rootless Podman with mounted NFS file storage. NFS doesn’t understand namespaces, a trick Podman uses to keep containers separate from each other, but still belonging to the host’s user. This project has proven resistant to my weekly goal oriented format, so I want to spend this month just writing about my studies. No Takeaways, no Final Questions. If I get something done, awesome. If not, oh well. On weeks without power outages, I want to still aim for 300 to 1,000 words.
Fish/SSHFS
These two protocols may be useful as an alternative to NFS, but use encryption needlessly if employed over a local network. That said, you can use a weak algorithm for old CPU’s. From memory, these protocols extend SSH with a hidden file, and require no special client.
Red Hat Cluster Suite
I eventually want to have multiple servers I can manageas one bigger one. This angle will only work if I can squeeze a node on GoldenOakLibry to access the file system directly.
