  • With the bouncer setup, I assume I need to pass in where to look for logs or something for those to be passed into the lapi? I followed this CrowdSec and Nginx Proxy Manager , as far as I can tell everything is connected an running, I have crowdsec running on OpnSense via the plugin - it appears to be healthy as per the CrowdSec Console.

     
        
    npm  | [nginx       ] nginx: [error] [lua] crowdsec.lua:62: init(): error loading captcha plugin: no recaptcha site key provided, can't use recaptcha       
    npm  | [nginx       ] nginx: [error] [lua] ban.lua:37: new(): BAN_TEMPLATE_PATH and REDIRECT_LOCATION variable are empty, will return HTTP 403 for ban decisions
    npm  | [nginx       ] nginx: [alert] [lua] crowdsec_openresty.conf:5):11: [Crowdsec] Initialisation done                                                    
    npm  | [supervisor  ] starting service 'app'...                                                                                                             
    npm  | [app         ] [5/5/2025] [11:26:30 PM] [Global   ] › ℹ  info      Using Sqlite: /data/database.sqlite                                               
    npm  | [supervisor  ] all services started.
    
    
      
  • Cheers, I've since discovered that's is "bouncers" that I want on the endpoints I.e on my Nginx Proxy Manager. I'll just use the LAPI on the Opnsense box for now I think.

  • I thought crowdsec does everything fail2ban does in addition to global block lists?

  • Where did you have it setup? Is your proxy configured to forward the real IP?

  • Nah, that one conflicts with my IPoAC networks unfortunately :(

  • I did have that same thought actually, with opening up opnsense to be modified. But I also like the idea of it getting blocked before it even gets into my network, instead if letting it in initially and then blocking afterwards - that's kinda the whole job of a firewall after all ha ha

  • Awesome that makes a lot of sense, cheers. So I'll install the Crowdsec agent on the Nginx Proxy Manager, and potentially also on the servers.

  • Thanks those links were helpful to get me on the right path. I like that there is a plugin for Opnsense directly and has that central LAPI, because I'd need something similar if I was to use f2b.

  • CodeBerg is a public instance of Forgejo. You can run your own local instance of Forgejo.

    At some point they'll have federation working so you'll be able to use your home instance of Forgejo to interact with other projects/instances.

  • ITX is fun to build, but really limits your options and expandability.

    For an ITX build make sure you've got a CPU with integrated graphics, so you're not wasting a slot for a GPU. You can also get an internal SATA/RAID card to expand the amount of drives you can have.

  • I have some alerts like that using Pushover. You can set it to treat high priority alerts like an alarm which bypasses things like do not disturb and silence etc

  • It can be pretty frustrating when dealing with old code bases. However its introducing a lot of really great features, so if you've got the time to either start a new project or rewrite with the more modern features you'll be fine.

  • Power up!

  • So, I only just got into their eco system. The main selling point is it didn't have subscriptions needed.

    Where to from here? When they inevitability add required sub's.

  • Oh, that works? That's some inception level containering right there

  • That could work. Wouldn't help for any Lemmy apps though unfortunately.

  • That might be a better option really. I might check that out. I kind if wish Proxmox had Docker integration instead of lxc but that's a different topic.

  • OK, sweet thanks. I just thought having the media files directly in the ZFS pool (zfs pool > files) instead of ZFS Pool > Qemu img > Files would be smarter

  • Are you suggesting creating a TrueNAS VM? Wouldn't that be the same as what I'm doing now with creating an image in the ZFS pool?

  • Probably so they can have an AI Agent watch the video and do the thing or some bullshit
