setting up a vpn assuming the above is possible with the client vpn on one unraid and the "server" vpn on the remote unraid? I imagine a VPN is safer? When I say safer I mean in terms of exposing unraid to the outside world. But now sure if it has that option to connect it to minio? That would seem like exactly what I needĪlso, how secure will it be with letsencrypt vs. Is there a way to connect nextcloud to cloudberry? I read something about you using webdav with duplicati, but I've read more than a few posts of people having database crashes with Duplicati, so I would rather use cloudberry.

Do you think I could do that, basically creating my own cloud? I feel like I read somewhere it wasn't stable enough for long file transfers, (several terabytes at a time). How is it working out for you? There's a nice video tutorial by spaceinvader one on setting up nextcloud. I was planning on using nextcloud eventually anyway on my main server. and then got side-tracked with the hardware vpn solution which seemed simpler, but turns out wouldn't work behind a second router. They don't have a problem with me forwarding a specific port to the unraid read that thread, seemed a bit complicated to set up with letsencrypt, etc. Pfsense is out, just no time to learn all that and I wouldn't be able to change the network system at a friend's house. I could just manually enable it once a week, and manually initiate the backup with cloudberry, while running btrfs with snapshots on the remote? I would be willing to just manually initiate this process in the interest of making things easier. Okay how about this? Can I set up openvpn as a docker on the remote server, then is there a vpn client docker that I can run on the main unraid server to connect to the remote via the vpn? I don't see it being a problem at all.Īlso I'd love to here what other members think. If the VPN is on all the time you can mitigate those risks. If there's a problem closing the connection will it cause a problem when the process happens the next time when it needs to create the VPN connection? I know I'm being a little hypothetical here but I'd be thinking about these things. If there's a problem creating the VPN connection, what should the system do? Retry? How many times? Should the backup be delayed to cater for that? There's 2 things there that might cause problems. If you wanted the process to be Create a VPN connection > Do the Backup > Close the VPN connection. Personally, I think having it always on means there's one less thing to be broken. If there's no traffic being routed through it it's just not in use. There's no issue with the tunnel staying open. So no issues with it always being connected? Is it going to be something that's always enabled? Both t he VPNs always connected to each other? I would like the process to be automated, so I doubt there's a way for the VPN to know once the backup is complete. Just needs a name, selecting site-to-site-vpn, choosing the site and clicking save.

PPTP will send your password as plain text and anyone will be able to capture your traffic and see the contents.ĮDIT: creating a VPN in UniFi takes around 3 seconds once your sites are configured. In terms of best practice just don't use PPTP as your VPN method. Here in the UK Virgin Media consumer do by default and you have to enable it in the modem settings. In terms of ISP some do block VPN connections. Troubleshooting as well if you haven't worked with pfSense might be an issue. Risks will be that you're putting all your eggs in one basket and if you unRAID box / container goes down your entire network won't work.

Gonna be helluva learning curve but gonna be a reliable lower cost project. Setting up pfSense on both of them using docker containers and treat your unRAID boxes as your routers as well. Lowest cost might be putting some 4 port NICs (use Intel only) in your unRAID boxes. I've set up lower costs VPNs before and they are a headache to maintain.Įven the cheapest pfSense boxes by netgate are around that price. without seriously testing a solution i can't put my name to it.

All i'm going to say is that you get for what you pay for I almost always install Ubiquiti for clients and reliability alone makes it worth it.
