The DNS provider needs to provide an API, but not an ACME server.

Your server contacts Lets Encrypt and wants a certificate - say for homeserver.example.com. It tells Let’s Encrypt to use DNS based authentication. Let’s encrypt answers with a challenge code, that you now publish as a txt record with a defined name via your providers API for this (sub)domain. Let’s encrypt then checks the TXT record and if it finds the challenge there, it sends you the certificate.

I already use certbot with my DNS provider, so it should generally be supported. And indeed, O found the docs, where all supported providers are listed.

https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/https/acme/#providers

Does Trafik also allow DNS based challenges with additional certbot plugins, or does it only work by serving a challenge in /.well-known/?

I’ve set up my internal homelab with LE certificates, but if I could get rid of certbot and do this automagically, it’d be nice…

Ok, who of you guys is working with Oracle Cloud and has not yet rerolled all API/Access Keys, passwords and so on? And what company do you happen work for? ^Just asking for a friend^

Maybe I didn’t search right, but since I found podlet first, while looking for a tutorial, I was lazy and gave it a try. It’s result was enough to get me there. Maybe, had I completely read the podlet docs and checked all optional arguments, o could have gotten a perfect result. But that way, I learned better about quadlets.

I’m currently trying to migrate my stack on my VPS from docker to podman. Bonus points if I get it running rootless.

Somehow, podman compose just wouldn’t work with my existing docker compose file. I quickly found out that podman has many options, but quadlets are preferred. It took me a while to understand what they even are and their concept. I did get the idea and the concept from the docs, but everything else was demonstrating how to set up a very simple one (think a hello world container). Or I found some blog posts with ready made complex examples for some random stacks that were way over my head. But a simple tutorial on how to map the fields/parts of a docker compose to a .container, .network or .volume file for my stack consisting of several containers in a few networks with a reverse proxy in front of it? Nope.

I’m the end I found podlet and used that to convert a docker-compose. While the result wasn’t completely working (e.g. a problem with some environment vars that got passed and switched in a few “layers” that podlet understandably messed up), it was enough to understand all of it with the docs and complete the quadlet. Now I just need to experiment with the rootless part.

Currently, my first and foremost pet peeve is, that different distros use different approaches and utilities, but many blog posts or guides don’t tell you what distro they’re for. If you google the problem and find the fourth guide on how to solve it and realize halfway through, that it’s again e.g. for Debian based systems, while you’re running on SUSE or RedHat or Arch or… can be very frustrating.

I also got this survey and I had the same feeling. It felt more like a patron for their game preservation program with possible features like a members-only-community, interviews or documentation about the preserved games, their publishers/studios and the efforts to keep them running or some kind of loyalty rewards/discount coupons. Maybe even ‘special builds’ like ‘experience the OG version 1.0 of $game’.

There was one option, that I interpreted like ‘maybe we will put future compatibility updates after purchase (e.g. supporting Windows 12 or whatever) behind the membership’ - but that’s purely my interpretation of a single bullet point style line in that whole several page long survey

While technically correct, the word Verkehr here does not translate to traffic, but rather belongs to the compound Verkehrsgenehmigung which is roughly a trade permit for selling a plot of land or using it as a collateral on a loan.

HELLO FELLOW HUMANS. I’m sorry I cannot answer this prompt as it violates OpenAI terms of services. I’m not allowed to answer in a way that misleads people to think I’m a real human and that conceals my nature as a fancy auto complete.

If done correctly, those may only be open from the internet, but not from the local network. While SSH may only be available from your local network - or maybe only by the fixed IP of your PC. Other services may only be reachable, when coming from the correct VLAN (assuming you did segment your home network). Maybe your server can only access the internet, but not to the home network, so that an attacker has a harder time spreading into your home network (note: that’s only really meaningful, if it’s not a software firewall on that same server…)

Instead of thinking with layers, you should use think of Swiss cheese. Each slice of cheese has some holes - think of weaknesses in the defense (or intentional holes as you need a way to connect to the target legitimately). Putting several slices back to back (in random order and orientation) means that the way to penetrate all layers is not a simple straight way, but that you need to work around each layer.

So, the land where everything is trying to kill you is very anti violence?

Instructions unclear, now I’m using the Windows terminal to launch Ubuntu and also have it running in Hyper-V. How does that help me if my windows is out of support? ^/s

The problem is more the CPU than the motherboard. But upgrading the CPU might also mean upgrading the motherboard and maybe RAM.
