[Help please] Identify process that is calling a domain

Ah, sorry to hear. I don’t know. I got mine on a Black Friday deal.

I switched from Hetzner to Netcup after Hetzner increased their pricing. For my needs it works.

Can someone share steps/point me to a guide to identify a process on my debian system that is calling a specific domain? I have a raspberry running since a few years and did an upgrade of a domain name. So instead of calling “old.home.lab” it’s now at “new.home.lab” how could I look out for “old.home.lab” calls? I tried a few utilities but couldn’t get to the point where I would be able to monitor the domain, only IPs.

I have found out about my home lab calling it by looking at the nextDNS logs.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for sharing this looks nice too

Currently testing zettelnotes, as it has git support, and file encryption. (I know Obsidian has several encryption plugins and git support) Obsidians is quite slow on my phone (too many plugins 😅) and I wouldn’t mind my notes being encrypted just for peace of mind.

Importing notes went quite good so far. I like Obsidians UI better as it is more polished.

First I was impressed by the extensibility of Obsidian, but over time I figured, I don’t need most plugins on a daily basis.

I would like to have a markdown Editor on Android, that supports editing .md file stored in different folders, without the need of setting up a Vault or other setup steps.

Not using ZFS but a similar approach: All my data (paperless, and other docker container data) is encrypted with LUKS on a separate disk. The OS is running unencrypted on the SD card (using a Raspberry Pi). This way I can swap out the system and relink the docker container data if needed. Yes, I do need to unlock after a reboot, but since the system is fully up, that’s done easily via ssh.

Still looking into ways to unlock it automatically on certain criteria…

3 backups:

phone data is synced to a nvme drive (1) which holds all the data of my homelab
This nvme is backed up to a nvme (2) drive on the same device via backrest
The nvme is also synced via Diplicati to a cloud storage provider (3)

2 locations: home and cloud

1… what was 1 again?

I agree with this comment. As mentioned as answer in the post, to have a backup of these things is a big reason why I chose to selfhost. I had to switch devices (and operating systems) too many times. Moving data around everytime would be a hassle. To have all the important stuff not only stored but also organized and easy to access is very convenient and makes me stop worrying to accidentially lose my phone for example.

What are you using to download them as Markdown?

schmurian@lsmu.schmurian.xyz · 2 years

Not more but I would say it offers some additional options and integrations, because it’s api based. For example, on my server I connected it with ntfy.sh which executes the command to pull the update, for the apps’ docker container. (It’s working 90% of the time)

I used this for a while, aside from rss feeds: newreleases.io

Are you using a VPN to connect to your devices at home? I have a similar setup, when I’m away from home, I connect via Tailscale (a version Wireguard VPN) and keep all notes in sync.

In Joplin I use the WebDAV connection to store files on my server at home.

I think this is what you should look into. Are the services in Heimdall listed with the local IP or host names? Or are they referenced with the tailscale IP?

Three things I want to add here:

On tailscale I can only access my home lab’s root page with the services being accessible with something like domain.tld/service.
service.domain.tld is not supported by tailscale. (See github issue)
The local domain is different to the tailscale domain. If you want to use them with a reverse proxy (nginx, caddy) you need to have rules configured for your tailscale magic DNS domain too.

I hope this helps.

Caldav?

I use libimobildevice on my raspberry and it works in terms of backups. I haven‘t tried to restore it though. Hope this works too… :D

Yeah, I don‘t know if they have finally anounced it officially, but they mentioned it in their blog post in March. I‘ve installed it, and it works quite well for my usecase.

It now also comes with Gitea Actions and the Act Runner - in case this feature is relevant to you.

I recently installed linkding which works quite well.

I recently saw a blogpost somewhere, where someone used git versioning for writing, and I find this idea highly intriguing. Then I realized, that I already have an app that would allow me to work like this: NotesHub

For now, I only started a journal, but I plan for some time already to start writing again.

Obsidian is great too, but a pain when it comes to syncing on iOS.
