Never heard of symfonium, I'll need to google it.

Arr stack question in c/main@selfhosted.forum
[–] RiffyDivine2@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Turns out the easy solution was not to map it using the provided volumes like /mnt/truenas:/download but to just setup a new volume in each of them which solved the issue.

What is everyone's go to audio streaming choice? (alien.top)
 

I was looking at my choices for streaming my music collection to my phone or just in general and thought I'd see what everyone is using or get suggestions? Bonus points if it let's you share songs.

Arr stack question (alien.top)
 

So I was playing with setting up the arr inside docker and my compose file was looking good. Everything loaded and came up fine and I got to setting up. I hit an odd error that I feel I am just not understanding the error correctly to fix.

You are using docker; download client SABnzbd places downloads in /downloads/usenet/music but this directory does not appear to exist inside the container. Review your remote path mappings and container volume settings.

Now this is in lidarr talking about sabnzbd. The server they are all on is an ubuntu server that I have an smb share mounted to and they all can access and read/write it. Is this error just because it's a share that is mounted on the server and the volume in the docker is linked to the /mnt folder and not //serverip of the smb share?

Or is it a config thing, since they both have the volume /mnt/truenas/downloads:/downloads set and it still gave the error.

I just assumed since spinning rust can outlast flash it will always cost more. I can't think of anyone using flash for long term storage or backups.

And don't listen to the disgruntled old-timers that say you'll stop exploring in your free time, they're just jealous and/or have kids with very little free time left.

Fuck that. I am in my 40's and still messing around with my lab and stuff in my free time...and at work. The want to learn never stops if you like what you are doing.

I landed a job also just off my homelab. Well sitting in the interview I setup an account for the guy, got him accessed in and let him look at everything I did and could do. You would be amazed how much better it is to be able to show you can do a job then just try to tell someone you can.

Also it's a huge thing to show a willingness and gift for self learning, a lot of people do not have that. When you find someone like that even if the skills are raw you know that person can be turned into something great.

What is the correct/ideal way to add smb & nfs shares into portainer? (alien.top)
 

I currently have one smb share marked as a volume in portainer but given that the password is in plain text inside of portainer this seems like a bad idea.

So what is the best way to add them into portainer and to make use of them? So far the SMB share I did add works for some containers and others get permission errors with the same puid and pgid as the ones that are working. I set umask to 002 also.
