  • A long time ago I used something like sockd to run a local proxy and then send that data to my personal remote proxy server over port 80, something like https://win2socks.com/ I think

    Maybe there’s something better than socks these days.

    Back then it worked pretty well, but I don’t think they were doing DPI. They (admin guys) did seem to notice large file transfers and seemed to be killing them manually.

    I would assume most places these days will collect net flow data at least, so while https will protect the contents, they will be able to see the potentially unusual amount of data moving back and forth to your proxies IP.

    I would suggest at least using a VPS to hide your schools IP address from the irc servers. And you may be in serious trouble if you get caught. If you’re in the UK you’re going to be risking jail time, and speaking from personal experience, they take this shit seriously.

    So maybe just set up a personal hotspot.

    Hasn’t been an issue for me. HA would only be depending on Opnsense for a DHCP lease so assuming you have reasonable lease times it’ll just pick up where it left off.

    Without checking I would imagine you could just set a delay for the HA container to make sure opnsense can start first, if it does become an issue.

    I use an N5105 generic mini pc running proxmox and opnsense. You can get them fairly cheaply from Aliexpress. They’re particularly low power and come with 4-6 gigabit network ports. I have two containers, the second of which hosts my Home Assistant instance. As an added bonus they often don’t have a fan.

    For wifi I use Ubiquity wifi 6 Lite APs with the controller running under home assistant.


  • You can ignore the windows machine unless it’s using nfs, it’s not relevant.

    Your screenshot suggests my guess was incorrect because you do not have any authorised Networks or Hosts defined.

    Even so if it was me I would correctly configure authorised hosts or authorised networks just to rule it out, as it neatly explains why it works on one container but not another. Does the clone have the same IP by any chance?

    The only other thing I can think for you to try is to set maproot user/group to root/wheel and see if that helps but it’s just a shot in the dark.
