That’s just sloppiness.
The information that familiarity gives you is “WTF does this field means”, and it’s the only thing that’s actually there. How you get a value and how a value is formatted are things no amount of expertise will save you from having to tell the computer, and thus you can’t just forget about.
(And let me guess, the software recommended install is a docker image?)
It is on the sense that Windows admins are the ones that like to buy this kind of shit and use it. It’s not on the sense that Windows was broken somehow.
Well, “don’t have self-upgrading shit on your production environment” also applies.
As in “if you brought something like this, there’s a problem with you”.
Hum, no. The last thing I need on the world is a piece of non-working hard to maintain software.
I’d write something before trying Nextcloud again.
Personally, I’d really like if it could have different users on its management interface, with their own file shares.
It’s understandable why they don’t bother, but I would like to share my NAS without running several instances.
I’ll second people here in pointing that you are better allowing calls from your family during the “Do Not Disturb” than trying to set-up things not to call you during that time. Your phone almost certainly has a setting that allows “favorite contacts” or something like it.
It has a better configuration orthogonality :)
Yeah, that’s not a good reason.
It’s much easier to authorize a key than to input your password on every kind of interaction.
This is the internet. If you poke the bear, somebody will come-up with a completely reasonable use case of password authentication that happened once somewhere on the world.
If you don’t have any good reason not to, always set your SSH server to only authenticate with keys.
Anything else is irrelevant.
You may want to replace the disk on that computer after you fix your boot. (As people said, with a recovery drive, probably the same one you use to install.)
After your computer is back, get a SMART client (like smartmontools) and check your disk status.
Oh, sure, the bloat on your images requires resources from the host.
There is the option of sharing things. But, obviously that conflicts a bit with maintaining your environments isolated.
FileZila has relied in a distribution channel that has turned untrustworthy a while ago.
Since then, they migrated the project. But somebody that doesn’t know what they are doing isn’t sure to get a good version of it.
Just about this part:
Or you might set up an sFTP service to accept a GUI connection from a client like FileZilla.
FileZilla has been a troublemaker for decades (not because the software itself, but the OP won’t get it right), and sFTP requires an extra service.
I’d recommend he get WinSCP or another scp client.
Nobody said “syncthing” on this thread yet, so that will be me.
Try to run something that requires php7 and something else that requires php8 on the same web server; or python 2 and python 3.
You actually can, but it’s not pretty.
(The thing about a declarative setup isn’t much of a difference, you can do it for any popular Linux distro.)
You would have to move them into some folder you are not syncing.
Well, it works in a different way than NextCloud. You don’t have a server, instead you just make a share between your computers and they are all peers.
It takes some getting used to the idea, but it’s actually much simpler than NextCloud.
Yep, I’ve adapted all of my setup to syncthing, and never looked back.
The majority of bots out there are stopped by just using a hard to guess password. It’s not them that you should be worried about.
So, you need a unix time value followed by 000?
That first part you can calculate with
date +%s -d '2024-07-02 12:00'.
