I have some data on a NAS (TrueNAS, in this case), and I'd like to back up the critical data to an offline hard drive every night. What I'd like to do is mount the hard drive and some kind of low-power SBC inside my safe. The script would run every night at 3:00AM. The thing I'm not sure of is...

I've learned a lot about ZFS lately, since I started using it for my TrueNAS. I know little about filesystems in general, though. What are the merits of ZFS vs ext4 vs btrfs for workstation use? I do some video editing, and a lot of photo editing. Software-mirrored boot drives are important to...

I want to install Ubuntu on ZFS root so that I can snapshot user's data and export those snapshots. The problem is that I don't want to have to export an entire system's worth of data, and just the contents of the users home directories. How do you go about creating a dataset for each user on...

Yes, but as I understand it, if I give the entire controller to the Windows VM via vfio, then I can't use it on the host. Can't I pass individual devices over to the VM without using vfio?

Will Windows be able to screw with the "Linux Partition" though? What I am trying to avoid is Windows being able to affect the Linux install... I've heard of Windows updates screwing with dual-boot setups, but I don't know how they are able to supposedly do that. I've never dual booted...

Unfortunately, I need Windows for work for a handful of apps that I can't replace on Linux (Photoshop, unfortunately; and no GIMP won't work). I despise Windows to the point that I currently carry around my "work" laptop (Windows), and my "personal" laptop (Fedora). If it's nothing I need...

I have a small Webserver running CentOS that hosts a few Wordpress sites. I want to back this up to a FreeNAS box on my LAN. The CentOS box backs up to a local directory every night. I want to rsync that daily backup to the FreeNAS box on my LAN. All of the backups are placed in a /backup...

I need some help configuring my my virtualhost file for Wordpress Multisite. I want to use subdomains instead of directories. I have enabled Multisite on boosterclubnetwork.com and the primary site boosterclubnetwork.com works fine. I added a site madison.boosterclubnetwork.com however that...
