Ahh, there it is. Linux user confirmed. :D

I feel like this is what the comment section is used for.

Ahh. Thank you for the info! I too was in that group who did not know! Can’t wait to see what the final picture comes out as!

For those not in the know, what is Canvas? I do not recall seeing this last year.

Same! I liken it to a knock off version of Mongolian Throat singing.

Two users and a handful of service accounts. I use it so I have a centralized user authentication system instead of managing multiple individual user accounts.

I tried a couple of LDAP solutions out there; Windows Server AD, Open LDAP, Samba4 in Debian, TurnKey Solutions LDAP before finally settling on Zentyal. It has a nice to use web GUI and can work in conjunction with AD RSAT tools that I have installed in a throwaway Windows VM for when I need more granular controls the web GUI can’t do.

All my Debian VM’s and laptops connect to Zentyal AD via SSSD.

I just cannot find a use case for Nextcloud. I have gone as far as installing it and sync’ing it with my LDAP for user auth and sync pictures from my phone to my NAS. All the other features are just a big ole m’eh for me.

This has just been my experience, so maybe I’m missing something that would just make it all click and make me not live without it. So far though, I’ve spun up and spun down an instance 3 times and never missed it afterwards.

Did you have to go through with surgery? I had a Heller Myotomy with Fundoplication and after the liquid diet recovery period was over, it was the best decision I ever made. Naturally, I have to avoid dry foods or stuff like bread that turns gummy when I chew it as it is difficult to swallow. Also had to stop eating cow & pig because of the texture of the meat when chewed.

If you haven’t thought about it, let me go ahead and break your heart now… we will never be able to go to outer space because we require gravity for the food to slide down into the stomach. Not that I could ever afford to go anyway, haha.

My man! This makes me extremely happy to hear some progress for you on this. I have achalasia (throat doesn’t squeeze, so solids gets stuck in my throat) and I still remember to this day after 5 years, finally getting a doctor who was a diagnostic genius for my specific condition and almost cried in the office when she knew exactly what it was. I was at the point of having lost 20 lbs in a few weeks because I could not get food into my stomach. Five years later and I can eat almost like a normal person; just takes a sip of water with each bit of food & soft food.

While it may not be similar to your issue, I know what it feels like to have that emotional weight lightened.

Would love to see future updates and wish you nothing but the best on your journey to some semblance of a normalcy.

Absolutely. I have used this model specifically since at least 2006 or so. I have been using this model so long I have to readjust back to the non ergo layout every time I just type in my laptop when it is undocked. Not looking forward to the day this keyboard dies on me.

Keyboard is keyboard as far as I am concerned. I’m using an old Microsoft Ergo 4000 V1 that I got probably 10 years ago. I have used this same keyboard on a Windows 10/11 install, multiple bare metal Linux installs and a MacBook Pro.

The only issue is the Command key as I recall on the MacBook but that can be remapped if I remember correctly.

Well that’s never a bad thing and no reason anyone should worry about a data leak. /s

Zabbix for agent / snmp based statistics.

Uptime Kuma for up/down states with a webhook notification into Discord so I get instant alerts on my phone when one goes down.

That’s an error on my part, apologies. I copy/pasted and tried to redact my url from the APP_URL=https://bookstack.example.com section and ended up deleting the entire line; yay replying from mobile. :|

I currently use Bookstack on Docker in Unraid but the above docker compose snippet is from when I used a debian VM with docker installed on it to run my docker stacks.

Here you go, this is my docker compose. You can modify the pieces as you see fit.

version: ‘3’ services:

Bookstack

I’m going to go a different route than your question. If you have a spare m.2 slot and room in your PC, you can install a m.2 network adapter. I recently installed a m.2 to 2.5gbe adapters in a Dell 3060 SFF as a proof of concept at home for getting Proxmox ceph cluster working over 2.5gbe.

I used this adapter. https://www.ebay.com/itm/256214788974?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=96RQC3CqQ_u&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=9BfwgvpgRMG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I use Apache Guacamole with Duo 2FA and LDAP authentication. All of it is self hosted and sitting behind Nginx for SSL. Works great aside from when I’m in the office and they do some security te blocking that I’m too lazy to find a work around for as I rarely go into the office.
