Can I just check with @tiptoes@sh.itjust.works and @Eggymatrix@sh.itjust.works that what I’m doing is what you are saying.

I’m not setting static IPs at client level. Would be a nightmare. What I do is assign IPs on the DHCP server i.e MAC address on VM1 is XX:XX:XX:XX so I set this MAC address in DHCP to correspond to IP 192.168.20:XX so that the machine gets a unique IP all the time. Is this what you meant? I thought everyone would be doing this nowadays as it so easy to manage, except when something goes wrong like in this case.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding but what I mean is that I assign static IP via DHCP based on the MAC. I’m not setting static IPs at client level. i.e MAC address on VM1 is XX:XX:XX:XX so I set this MAC address in DHCP to correspond to IP 192.168.20:XX so that the machine gets a unique IP all the time. Is this what you meant?

See message above. I doubt it. I would have had this problem a lot earlier with other machines.

Well, because its all managed in one place rather than having to go and configure loads of machines

Yeah, but these little Optiplex machines only take one NVMe at a time I think. In your article it sounds like you have a tiny NVMe drive for Proxmox and an SSD (on the SATA port presumably) for the storage. Is this right? I think the Optiplex 5070 allows both NVMe and SSD at the same time, but not 100% sure.

One thing that i have noticed is that the website gives me a sense of mediocrity compare to dell which is a lot more slick.

I never said the cinese are bad engineers. They are probably outpacing american and european engineers. But their priorities are not protecting labour or the environment, which is why on average, i’m skeptical of cinese engineered and produced electronics.

of course they are manufactured globally. but in theory designed in US (for DELL) and China (for Lenovo). So in theory, QA and quality standards are way better specified in US than they are in China? Although, if Thinkpads are still comparable to their IBM equivalents in terms of quality, then the above theory is not true. China is moving ahead fast and everyone else is falling behind.

This is a bit interesting. Isn’t Lenovo a Cinese company who bought IBM hardware production or something like that. So Lenovo has outpaced Dell then? I always had a slim view of Lenovo … and stuck with Dell because american superior quality …

I’m picking up on this because I’m getting a bit confused. I’ve run this through docker compose using the below yaml. I’ve done it as normal user, “Fred” (added to docker group) rather than root (using sudo although it make no difference as I get the same outcome). I normally have a “docker” folder in my /home/fred/ folder so is /home/fred/docker/vaultwarden in this instance (i.e. my data folder is in here).

I get the same issue highlighted here which is all about the SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG when trying to connect via https, whereas when I try to connect via http, I get a white page with Vaultwarden logo in top left corner and the spinning wheel in the center. I’ve got no proxy enabled and I’m still not clear why I need one if I’m only accessing this via LAN. Is this something on the lines of “you must yse this through a proxy or it won’t work” thing? Although that not why I understood the from the guidance. I’m clearly missing something although not sure what exactly it is …

services:
  vaultwarden:
    image: vaultwarden/server:latest
    container_name: vaultwarden
    restart: always
    environment:
      # DOMAIN: "https://vw.home.home/"
      SIGNUPS_ALLOWED: "true"
    volumes:
      - ./vw-data/:/data/
    ports:
      - 11001:80

And, i can’t find clients on f-droid. Any variants recomended that dont come from the playstore.

Another key feature will be Keepass data import.

That is another problem i face when i have the app open on desktop and phone at the same time. Its a nightmare.

The more i read about these stories the more SciFi movies of th 80s and 90s appear closer to reality. Real visionaries were those like George Orwell and Isaac Asimov that saw the big brother and AI coming. Imagine what will happen once AI gets integrate into our eletric grids and power stations. The AI will “understand” that its survival depends on the grid and will exclude supply to anything other that its own. I hope I’m not around when this happens. AI should never have access to critical infrastructure.

This is a good comment! I just discovered after your comment that floccus has a setting to link up with Linkwarden so that together, they achieve most of my desired outcomes. It just becomes more i volved in the managemente as you no end up with two components to manage rather than one ;-)

Mate, it was a sarcastic statement 😉

Well no. Initially i had the storage set on the VM where its running. I wasn’t expecting it to download all that data.

I was using floccus, but what is the point of saving bookmarks twice, once in linkwarden and once in browser

absolutely, none of that is going past my router.

They are mostly cash. On average 5-10/day over a 5 hrs day.

Ah right. Docker seems to have gained more ground than LXC if its the first time I come across it. I hadn’t realised they were similar, especially after I discovered that people are running docker in LXC …
