Hello!

This is an experiment with getting the Homelab working using proxmox and other fine software.

The Stack

  • Zimaboard 2
  • Symmetric 1gbs connection from B4RN
  • Rather than the Nokia ONT, connectivity is via an X-ONU_SFPP running the 8311 firmware
  • Routing provided by a Mikrotik Hex
  • Proxmox running on the bare metal, with this site being served from a Debian LXC (although I may need to give it a bigger share of the resources!)
  • Various other bits are running off a Docker VM, which is itself managed by Dockhand
  • And all the proxying is via a Traefic instance, which initially looked like a nightmare to configure but has actually turned out really easy and doesn't set fire to the webrowser like NPM did.
  • Domains by Porkbun
  • CMS is currently Grav, but this may change as I fiddle!

61Cygni?

I keep registering domain names, and some of those include our nearest stellar neighbours. It's quick and non-controversial.
