If you don’t have one already, it could be turned into a linux-based input device for your TV.


didn’t have money for an external hard drive or anything like that growing up, so a lot of stuff got lost over the years. but when i upgrade my NAS’ hard drive i will buy an enclosure and scrape all of the important stuff together. like recovery codes for my 3ds collection, old photos of my late cat. that kinda stuff. then i’ll see how frequently i’m gonna update the data.


i had a transmission jail once, but couldn’t figure out where to mount the jail, and how the file paths would have to look. but a jail seems like the way to go. i might be able to put more energy into figuring that out now.


Build a Thinkcentre or try to fiddle with VMs?
Hi, i've been running a Truenas server for a while now. i currently have my totally legally aquired movie saved on there and jellyfin to stream them. but the one complaint is: i can't torrent without my Workstation pc running, because its running qbittorrent and uploading it through SMB. is there any way to install a torrent program on the server and remote control it via my PC? Ideally with magnet link support? i would imagine it being done via a VM and connecting it to the server via SMB or FTP as well my electronics engineer brain also had the idea to buy a passively cooled thinkcentre for 50€ on ebay and just keep it running inside my office 24/7. any help is appreciated!

i may have figured something out, godaddy doesn’t support ddns, but you can change the ip of an A record via the API. and i have found a program that runs under linux as a service that does exactly that. problem is, where in my nas do i run it? do i try to install it in truenas? or jellyfin? or do i create a new jail with the sole purpose of running said program?

A few Questions about reverse proxies and running your own Jellyfin server
First things first, the setup is currently up and running. but i would like to modify it to use a reverse proxy through my personal domain. Currently, i'm using an old pc with Truenas and a jail with jellyfin in it. i'm connecting to it with the free Fritz!Box VPN service. but that's stupid and slow. so i've bought a domain at godaddy.com. but i don't understand the principle of whatever is managing the domain knowing the public IP-adress of my server. i've heard of Caddy, but it's also running locally, so i don't understand how i connect the pc to the domain. if anyone could simplify this down for me, it'd be very helpful.
