• Windows to Linux Switch

  I'm using openmediavault.org for my "NAS" OS. No desktop, but it does have a good web-based GUI. To automount your NAS drive, you'd have to modify your fstab file. Lots of good tutorials online. Source: over 1 year ago

• Thinking about making a home storage server

  Basically, there a few options to start with. The most decent ones are TrueNAS/FreeNAS (https://www.truenas.com/) , OMV (openmediavault.org), both supports zfs. Also, you can look into UnRAID (https://unraid.net/) which allows you to scale easily. Also, some info on zfs https://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/hardware/10-reasons-why-zfs-rocks/ https://www.starwindsoftware.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-zfs. Source: over 1 year ago

• just how well does the nvidea shield pro do as a plex server?

  I have 5 Optiplex 3010's (i3-3rd Gen processors) sitting in my closet with 4GB RAM that would work just fine as a direct play Plex server with openmediavault as it's OS. And should even HW Transcode a couple of 1080p files with a Plex Pass. Source: over 1 year ago

• How I reclaimed my server after resetting devices after the breach (Ubuntu)

  Wow, I'm on a Debian based headloess OS (openmediavault.org) and my update was much easier. Source: over 1 year ago

• No write access after clean install of Linux Mint

  The link that u/Fribbtastic had quite a bit of detail. Or there is always r/linux4noobs. I don't have mine installed on Mint and the GUI of my openmediavault.org OS is quite a bit different (I.e. There is no desktop, only a web interface/command line). But the command line should be the same for all distros built off of Debian. Source: over 1 year ago

• Cockpit: Web-based graphical interface for servers

  What about webmin? I used it in the past, it has plenty of modules and parse config, so you can edit them by hand too. https://webmin.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Total beginner here, trying to find an alternative to something like windows “storage spaces”

  Https://webmin.com/ can be used as a GUI for mdadm if you're not comfortable with a console. Source: 12 months ago

• ESXI on old desktop

  If you want to roll your own virtualisation box, I would suggest either Debian or OpenSUSE TW with one of these tools, for everything else, I suggest Webmin. Source: about 1 year ago

• Cant figure out how my disk pace is spread

  You could also just install webmin https://webmin.com and use the web-interface to resize your logical volumes and volume groups... Source: about 1 year ago
