  • Setting Up OPNsense on Proxmox: Doubts regarding NIC setup

    Jump

  • Honestly I don't know enough to answer that question fully.

    From what I understand PCI addresses (01:00.0) are dynamically assigned by the motherboard's BIOS at boot. Adding or removing PCIe devices, enabling M.2 drives, or adjusting BIOS settings often shifts your device addresses up or down which can prevent a VM from starting up.

    Reading online though, there now seems to be a workaround to this issue. I might need to give it a shot on my Proxmox machine.

    "PCI ID overrides" is the term in this document to search for.

  • Setting Up OPNsense on Proxmox: Doubts regarding NIC setup

    Jump

  • I have been running PfSense on Proxmox for ages now.

    What I do is the following.

    1. Pass the NIC card through to PfSense.
    2. Your motherboards ethernet port is plugged into your network switch (think of proxmox as just another pc on your network)
    3. In PfSense your NIC can now be seen and all ports can be assigned as needed. Assign one as WAN and the others as LAN.

    Set your pfSense /OPNsense to start at boot when you power on proxmox.

    FYI, you might occasionally run into issues where the NIC "GUID" changes so your VM won't be able to start.

    When this happens your pfSense/OPNsense VM won't start so your network will be in a "down state". This means DHCP won't be working either, and any PC that were not assigned a static IP won't be able to access the Proxmox GUI to quickly fix the issue.

    You might occasionally need to hook up a temporary router between a PC and your Proxmox host to access the web GUI as a result. At least this is what I do when my outrage is longer then a hour.

  • Price hikes pushing consumers to abandon their favorite brands

  • I honestly can't trust any brands and their packaging because of shrinkflation.

    Eveytime I go into a grocery store i see packaging stay the same size but the amount inside the packages keeps getting smaller and smaller.

    In the image below for example now frozen fruits come 50% less filled, and the price has gone up from the originally 600g.

  • What path does data take when connecting to a domain at my address?

    Jump

  • What you are looking for is something called NAT Reflection/HairPin NAT/NAT loopback.

    When you search for a "domain.example.com" your router loops you back at your reverse proxy and all the traffic remains "internal". Your website will still be externally accessible (the ones you setup to be).

    Here's a example of how to set this up on PfSense router.

    Its true it was "not supported", but the CPU was/is capable of it.

    The big issue here is did AMD disable it accidentally, or did they do it intentionally. If it was intentional why did they not announce it anywhere in the update notes, or anywhere else?

    "Your data has been compromised because our network was accessed by a outside third party."

    I wonder how all this information stored by companies for over a year will now be protected, it will only benefit nefarious actors, scammers, and more then likely the company selling the data to third parties like ad agencies to regain costs of storage.

    Subject: Say NO to Bill C-22!

    Hello Gary Anandasangaree

    I'm writing to ask you to oppose Bill C-22, the Lawful Access Act, and call on the government to withdraw it entirely.

    Bill C-22 would require internet providers, messaging platforms, and cloud services to build and maintain surveillance capabilities inside their own systems — capabilities that create serious security risks for every Canadian. We already know what happens when governments mandate these backdoors: state-backed Chinese hackers exploited similar loopholes in the United States in 2024's Salt Typhoon attack, compromising millions of people's private communications.

    C-22 doesn't just replicate those vulnerabilities: it greatly expands them. It would compromise a much wider range of digital services. And it does something that compromises everyone's safety and protection privacy both online and in-person further: companies would be forced to store a full year of metadata about every Canadian — records of where we go, who we contact, and when we did it — without us ever having been under investigation. Everything from which family members you talked to, conversations with your therapist, if you talked with your lawyer potentially exposing what you discussed.

    The limited safeguards C-22 contains are both overly narrow, and are compromised by a clause that lets future governments reinterpret basic terms like "encryption" and "systemic vulnerability" by future regulations, with no parliamentary debate required. That means the very limited protections in this bill are only as strong as the government decides they are, on any given day.

    Bill C-22 cannot pass in its current form. Please join me in calling on the government to withdraw it in full.

    Sincerely, Your name here Your address here with postal code

  • How would you expose Jellyfin securely without a vpn?

    Jump

  • I too would like to know more. Jellyfin has been something that I am still hesitating to expose online without a VPN.

    I have Plex behind a reverse proxy (HAproxy) with Crowdsec and firewall rules all behind Cloudflare. My firewall rules in HAproxy block access a few different ways, like if request are higher then 60 requests a second, or if there is strange path traversal. Used the following guide as a start.

  • This just in, Canada post and other mail providers will now be opening all envelopes and packages sent. All contents will be scanned or photographed and held on file for 2 years time, and released to relevant authorities upon request of investigation. To make things easier please do not seal packages or envelopes for easier and more convenient access.

    All photos and scanned documents will be held in a highly secured database with easy backdoors access!

    Pretty much the equivalent in terms of what Canada wants to implement with access to signal chats, VPN logs, and asking ISPs to keep logs for 1-2 years minimum.

    Somehow our politicians don't seem to see the similarities between sending a message online vs sending a physical envelope in the mail. Also, in both cases a person could encrypt their messages/letters if they choose leaving regular folks with less security.
