If LVM isn't somehow mitigating the issue I will do a reinstall.
I have run out of space on / before and it is a huge pain in the ass. I do not need much room for /home on this system so I would prefer to be cautious and avoid problems down the road.
Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to specify this… maybe a different installer image.
just to check my understanding: a 4 port card provides different capability than a 1 or 2 port card with a switch attached, yes?
thanks for all the info!
i am definitely a person who will always change the defaults for no particular reason. so I appreciate the warning. except I don’t quite know what you mean by “assignments”. do you mean like the names? eth0? or their functions? I do like the idea of having a physical jack that’s always guaranteed to allow access no matter what I foul up otherwise.
all these years I have been running my home network with a collection of routers just kind of attached together in a way that shouldn’t work due to “double nat” according to everything I ever read, but it is pretty much functional if not at all optimized. maybe if you don’t believe in double nat it won’t happen to you.
thanks! so for example: Intel Gigabit Dual PORT GIGABIT ETHERNET PCIe NIC Card EXPI9402PT NC360T which is CA$30. Does that sound right?
What’s a server card?
I’d prefer to avoid VMs if possible I never had much luck with them.
that sounds useful.
i like to keep things separate when plausible.
I was hoping to make use of one of the various computers I have cluttering this place up so I could justify continuing the collection. ;)
Do you know how to determine suitability of an existing card, or how to correctly purchase a replacement?
Does “interface” mean you need separate cards? Or you have a single card with multiple interfaces?
Is DMZ like a guest network?
I looked up “IDS/IPS” and it wounds like something I would prefer to avoid doing if I can.
The best internet I could subscribe to where I’m at is 1024 Mbps down, 50 Mbps up. I’ll add that to the post I guess it is relevant since so many people have fibre. (sigh)
Yes this was the winner!
I have settled into kasts. Thanks for the rec. :) It is simple but does the job. If my phone issues persist I will try the flatpack of cpod.
it looks like a low-bs rss reader. nice!
That is my previous experience. I guess i missed it somehow.
