I have messed around with NUT to trigger a graceful shutdown of my home server running Ubuntu Server. I have struggled with setting NUT up on bare metal, but would like a gui anyway. I saw PVE-UPS which looks good, but I think but I think it is meant for Proxmox. Any alternatives, or a spin of PVE-UPS for docker compose anybody know about?
I was hoping to setup a server and clients to shutdown the other Raspberry Pis and such, scattered around the house if the main server senses a power failure.
Also, I had an issue where it insisted on triggering a shutdown the SECOND the UPS triggered, even if it came right back. I might take another swing at it at some point, but I liked the look of that PVE-UPS things.
It’s so that you can have unique, randomized, rotating passwords for every service you have. Also, they auto fill fields for you, and can save you from spoofed URLs if you’re not paying attention. Highly recommend getting one. Bitwarden is good.
Cool. What is the file size of the DNS database being quarried with each request anyway? My knee jerk assumption is that it’s like a petabyte, but the longer I think about it, the smaller it gets.
Dang. They do it all in one Pizza box. I figured it would be a whole rack per unit.
I never even thought about this before, but what kind of hardware is a root level DNS server like 1.1.1.1 or quad 8 run on? Are they all roughly the same, or do they take different approaches to the load?
Thanks. Good info. Feel like sharing your conf file to see how it’s formatted in an example that actually works? Might make this my weeks evening project.
