I’ve used all these sites before for used parts/servers
I wouldn’t, you’ll lose a lot not having it manage the disks such as using dissimilar disks for the array and having it spin down unused disks. You might be able to pass disks through so the unraid VM can manage them directly, but it might be harder than I’d personally want to deal with.
If you aren’t running VMs much. Truenas scale I believe can do docker well. I’ve seen a lot of people put that in a VM on proxmox with disks passed through to be used as the NAS portion.
So many people didn’t read the post and going off how raid isn’t backup.
There are a few things to consider. How much data is it? How is it connected? How reliable do you want it to be? Where is it going to be? How are you backing it up? How will you monitor the disk(s) and backup process for failures?
Is it at some place that will be a pain to deal with if a hard drive dies, like a friend’s house or something. I’d deal with raid so it wouldn’t be an immediate reason to go fix it or go without backups.
Is it small enough amounts of data that you could have a complete third copy if you didn’t put the disks in raid? Then I’d probably make multiple copies and not use raid.
Are you dealing with something like veeam doing backup chains? Having an initial copy and then incremental with changes where you can go back to different days? Go with raid because having to reconfigure can be a hassle or having a full and incremental across jbods could cost you all the backups if the disk with the full backup is lost.
Either or is a valid choice and depends on your particular needs.
Since you are talking mismatched disks, I have gone to unraid after running a ceph cluster. I found it easy to keep adding and upgrading disks in unraid where it made more sense than maintaining or adding nodes. While I like the concept of being able to add nodes for very large storage arrays. My current unraid server is 180tb.
It is super simple to add/upgrade the storage one disk at a time.
This is how I feel.
I would much rather have a single machine running vms which I can easily snapshot and back up rather than a dozen small machines I have to deal with power supplies and networking.
SBCs have specific use cases, usually where they need to interact with hardware. That’s what made the rpi so great with it’s GPIO and hats. But that’s a rather small use case.
Not the docker container IP. The IP of the machine you are running docker itself on. Nginx is running in a container, it’s not allowed to talk to the other docker container IP directly and it has a separate network stack from the listmonk container, so 127.0.0.1 only goes back to nginx.
Say your machine that you are running docker on is 192.168.0.67, the listmonk docker container is 172.16.0.89, and nginx container has an IP of 172.16.0.34.
Your nginx config would need the proxy to point to 192.168.0.67:5870.
Then make sure you don’t have ufw or some similar firewall blocking the connection from nginx to listmonk.
I wrote this a while back. Maybe it can help https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/arx2qe/tutorial_reverse_proxy_with_nginx/
502 usually means it’s having a hard time hitting the service on the back end. Are you able to access listmonk directly without the reverse proxy? What is the URL I. The browser when you do that?
Is listmonk on the same server as nginx? Is nginx running in a container? If nginx is running in a container, 127.0.0.1 would try to load from inside the nginx container which isn’t where listmonk is. Use the LAN IP address of the docker host listmonk is on instead of 127.0.0.1.
On her computer, why not just use Thunderbird on it? Or even outlook, or whatever she likes. She just needs to pick the software.
On her phone, or even yours, why the stuff with accessing Thunderbird through vnc. Just add the server to whatever mail app on your phones?
If you want a web based thing, roundcube or sogo. But Thunderbird is gonna suck the way you are trying to use it.
