Does anyone have any suggestions for running an Active Directory replacement inside Linux? I've been using Zentyal for a few years, and I'm just a little sick of using it now. #homelab #sysadmin

Today's tech screw up: I botched an upgrade on Zentyal, our Active Directory alternative. So, being a good sysadmin, I triggered a restore from our Veeam platform, which dutifully shut down the broken VM and began the restore operations. Using a service account that's stored in active directory. The restore failed, and now I'm reconfiguring my backup software to use locally stored service credentials. You live and learn! #sysadmin #homelab

Trying some traffic shaping on my PFSense box today. The idea is to give priority In/Out of the internet to traffic that directly affects the wife and I.

Every now and then, I check up on https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/about/the-solar-website/ This is a website that has managed to optimize itself to only contain 0.5mb of data per page (on average). They&#39;re running on a battery and solar power, without any mains connections, and maintain an impressive site uptime. I would highly recommend giving their site a read. Shout out to @rra as one of the contributors to the site, I can only apologize for not having the time to find Fedi handl...
