Paperless-ng with Apache setup I have got Paperless-ng running on my webserver. I want to change from the Django manage.py to a apache setup. I did not install it with a virtual environment, but just use the system instance of python. I found below config of apache which should work for apache, but not sure how to go about my instance. I have paperless running in /opt/paperless/paperless-ng . How would I get below to work on my instance? Anything I need to consider? I want it to run on port 9999. <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName example.com &#x200B; Alias /static/ /home/paperless/paperless/static/ <Directory /home/paperless/paperless/static> Require all granted </Directory> &#x200B; WSGIScriptAlias / /home/paperless/paperless/src/paperless/wsgi.py WSGIDaemonProcess example.com user=paperless group=paperless threads=5 python-path=/home/paperless/paperless/src:/home/paperless/.env/lib/python3.6/site-packages WSGIProcessGroup example.com &#x200B; <Directory /home/paperless/paperless/src/paperless> <Files wsgi.py\> Require all granted </Files> </Directory> </VirtualHost> https://redd.it/ndjp5w @r_SelfHosted

Can I get the same benefits of opening up my home network by instead using a selfhosted VPN? Noob here, so please bear with me. I want to be able to access my Nextcloud files from outside my home network. I've heard that opening up your home network to the outside world is very insecure. Instead of say, opening random ports, would I be able to do this by setting up a VPN? Like use OpenVPN and then connect to my home network, and then go to the same IP address that I use while at home? https://redd.it/ndl4ko @r_SelfHosted

Is it possible to connect 'P2P Cameras' without using iCSee or XMEYE? I've setup a few of these cheap IP cameras and they work fine, but I find it annoying having to use iCSee on my phone to setup the camera on the network and then configure it from the WebUI on my PC. Is it possible to just connect straight to the cameras from Windows? https://redd.it/ndjn4a @r_SelfHosted

Relay Mxroute to send email. Hi there, I have hosted a email server. It is my own server and I put it at my home. My isp blocked port 25 and won't allow me to set a reserve DNS. So I need to use smtp relay service to solve this problem. And i tried to use Mailjet and Sendinblue. But they have the same problem, it will include a unsubscribe header and always land in gmail promotion tab. Then, I asked for someone's advice, he told me to use the email provider like Mxroute and make a account like relay@example.com, then relay all my email to there. But I don't know how to set the DNS records with it. Should I follow the instructions of the email provider to point all DNS records to their server or also add the DNS records to point to my own server. And also can I use another lower price email provider like namecheap mail? Thank you. https://redd.it/ndk316 @r_SelfHosted

Bigotry against self hosting Hello, do you guys ever get blow back about self hosting? I was posting over in /r/node and they downvote me pretty hard when I talk about self hosting while upvoting each other whenever anyone mentions hosting via one of the expensive cloud platforms. I see this pattern repeatedly, it reminds me of court officials being upset whenever jury nullification is mentioned. People involved with these services seem to want to shut down any mention or discussion about hosting yourself without paying anyone anything. have any of you encountered this behavior from others before? How do you correct some of the misconceptions people have about self hosting? https://redd.it/ndeskf @r_SelfHosted

Document Search App Does anyone know of any document management system that can point to an existing file tree and OCR and search those files? I like papermerge, but it makes the file structure totally flat and leaves me one hundred percent reliant of the DMS to access my files. https://redd.it/ndfies @r_SelfHosted

Webmail Client with POP3 support I have access to an email account, that has a very limited storage space. The total storage space for this email account is 400MB. I don’t have administrative access to this mail server. I can access this email account, using POP3/IMAP and SMTP protocols. Right now, I am using Thunderbird to access the specific email account, with POP3/SMTP settings. I don’t want to use IMAP, because I don’t want to delete any emails. I am using POP3, I am downloading the mails to my local computer, and I am deleting the mails from the server to free up the space. What I want to do, is to setup a webmail client (I repeat: client), with a lot of storage, and set it up with POP3 and be able to fetch the emails from the email account I have. I have tried a lot of webmail clients (eg Nextcloud Mail, Rainloop, Roundcube, MailPile etc), and all of them are using IMAP without the ability to use the local storage. What open source webmail client can I use to fetch mails using POP3? Thank you very much. https://redd.it/nct842 @r_SelfHosted

Can Tailscale be selfhosted? I am new to TailScale and have only seen that I have yo signup using my Microsoft or Google login. Is this the only way of getting started or is there an option to selfhost it on for example a VPS or Raspberry pi.? https://redd.it/ncucyg @r_SelfHosted

Video Server for Local Wordpress Site Hi, I have a VM (Windows 10 LTSC) connected to 4 drives using PCI passthrough and its holding 4TB of company training videos. I have been successful in sharing it with staff using emby. But I got a idea to create a local WordPress(learnpress plugin) install and wanted to link the videos from the "training" folder. Am now stuck, linking the url of emby to WordPress seams to be a mess. I don't want to move those videos into the WordPress VM (uploading them), due to others successfully sharing the videos and it being part of a successful backup plan which no one wants to change. How can I link the videos on the "D:/Trainings" trainings folder to a WordPress installation? \- I have tried WAMP (on C:\\wamp) + the Training folder accessible via ftp, but learnpress doesn't like FTP, and the latest browsers are ditching ftp support. Options am wanting to try but fear its a dead end: \- media goblin: not sure if it can work with the already existing D:\\Training folder. \- peertube: same issues, make reqire uploading all the videos 1 by 1 in to the wordpress VM. \- emby: I would like to find a solution to link emby urls into the wordpress pages and play like a youtube embeded video. https://redd.it/ndadgm @r_SelfHosted

Will folder works in URL for dynamic sites while using Reverse proxy? Hey folks, I was going through this guide, and found that, >To make your URLs pretty, the reverse proxy can be configured to redirect requests on your domain based on a folder name to a different service on your local network. > >http://mydomain.com/forum/ –> http://localhost:8008/ > >http://mydomain.com/music/ –> http://192.168.1.125:3000/ > >http://mydomain.com/cloud/ –> http://192.168.1.123:8800/ Will this always true for dynamic sites, like nextcloud or anything else? Another thing is I am pointing nginx's proxy_pass to same IP i.e. (http://192.168.1.100) but with different ports according to service, I tried to configure directories way many times but couldn't get it working :/ https://redd.it/nczfpz @r_SelfHosted

Looking For An Alterative Hi I'm looking for an alternative to GSuite - if it needs a web server - I would very much prefer nginx - I would not prefer docker - as this would actually complicate the setup I currently use which has nginx used for rtmp live streaming as well as hosting wordpress sites. https://redd.it/nd1t9p @r_SelfHosted

Transmission alternatives? I'm setting up a small home media server using omv5 and a few usb hard drives. Exploring docker but I'm really new to it. I am using a great stack from techno dad life but it uses version 2.1 via portainer with transmission as the client. I'd like to use qbittorrent but it uses version 3.3 only available via swarm unless you build outside of OMV. So I spun it up outside of OMV on my x86 Debian buster and got it running. Everything was good. But now when I try and deploy the stack that is 2.1 based I get an error via portainer about the mix match. I assume this is because I want all containers using the same OpenVPN network. Is there a way to use a mix of 2.1 and 3+ services ? I couldn't find a way to do qbittorrent via 2.1 or another client besides transmission for 2.1. All I want is ~15 services via openvpn connected with a better DL client! I'm pulling my hair out :( https://redd.it/nd66mx @r_SelfHosted

Help with networking setup So I'm trying to setup a few things in a way thats easily scalable without having to go through long config files. My current setup is all my self-hosted services -> nginx reverse proxy using NginxProxyManager -> Router -> Domain DNS Stuff -> the internet. I want to add a DMZ to protect my main home network from my outside world stuff (I have a bunch of my services accessible outside my home), Authelia, fail2ban, and some kind of geoip thing (block connections outside of US). The most important part of this is I have a way to easily add more services without having to go through config files, and easy deploy through docker. Right now, I have a way to do that for everything I have setup already, and am looking for a way to do such with Authelia (I think this has a nice web GUI, but I can't seem to get my installation to work), for fail2ban I found a docker image for fail2web but I have no clue how to get that to integrate with my nginx proxy (Does this go between my router and my reverse proxy?), and for geoip thing I don't even know where to start looking cause I don't have any names for software for that. For the DMZ, from what I can tell there isn't a way to use docker to set this up, but looking into opnsense, could I run that in a virtual machine on the same computer? Any advice or suggestions are welcome. tldr I need help setting up authelia and fail2ban and a dmz in a way that provides a decent web gui for management and scalability. https://redd.it/nd366l @r_SelfHosted
