Do you need to serve an actual public like a website does? If not then you shouldn’t be exposing any fucking services except for wireguard for you and your handful of users.

UnRAID is ass.

I use healthchecks for all my scripts and making sure my docker containers and services are up. If anything goes down or errors then I get sent a telegram message immediately.

These fools are ridiculous. Ignorance.

You obviously don’t know your way around a terminal at all… I guarantee I can do anything faster in terminal than you can in a GUI. Especially for repeatable tasks like restarting a container.

Wtf at y’all talking about, it’s usually way faster to do these things in terminal. I guarantee I can restart a docker container faster with a terminal then you can with a browser.

Alt+enter brings up a terminal, then I type literally “ssh server” and I’m ssh’d into the box. ‘sudo docker restart containername’ and the password and I’m done before Firefox even loads for your dumbass and I didn’t even have to lift my hands from the keyboard. And for common and repeatable tasks there are these things called aliases and the ability to chain commands. I can condense all of that to a single command. Lmao. GUI plebs are so annoying with their ignorance

That’s why you you bind mount all the important data and back it up with a proper backup solution like borg. And why you also have a monitoring and notification system that alerts you if a service goes down. I will get a telegram message within 15 minutes of a service going down.

No one should recommend plex any longer.

I went tplink omada router, switches, and aps, very happy.

You don’t need a db backup app… bind mount the data to a location then just stop the container and have borg take the backups. You can do this with all your containers.

/docker/postgres

/docker/postgres/data

/docker/postgres/compose.yml

And do that with every container. Easy as fuck to backup and restore them.

Wireguard.

Unless you actually have a need for the public to access the services then you shouldn’t be exposing them. If it’s just you and a few household members that need access then you should be using ddns and wireguard, or similar.

My phone auto connects with wireguard as soon as I leave my home ssid, so I never lose access to my services.
