Today i've nearly finished the transition to #Vue.

Next steps are adding more #API #endpoints, implementing the pages in the #frontend and finally #dockerizing and publishing it 🔥

A new episode of SysAdmin Weekly is live!

What makes a great SysAdmin? Paul Schnackenburg joins me to talk tech skills, soft skills, burnout, curiosity, and why "just knowing the tools" isn’t enough in 2025.

Whether you've been running AD since 2003 or just built your first homelab, this one’s for you.

Watch Here: youtu.be/lhiiYpGVVtQ?si=IODUCZ

Also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon.

What do you think sets the best sysadmins apart?

Little trick:

Server backup by using proxmox-backup-client inside a Linux container by running it with podman :podman: . Volume-mounting the entire root-fs of the server into the container read-only:

[root@argon ~]# sudo podman run --rm --name pbs-backup-job \
--security-opt label=type:spc_t \
--hostname argon \
--entrypoint /usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client \
--secret pbs_repo_password,type=env,target=PBS_PASSWORD \
--secret pbs_key_passphrase,type=env,target=PBS_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD \
-v /:/mnt/root:ro \
-v /root/argon-backup.key:/etc/proxmox/argon-backup.key:ro,Z \
docker.io/ayufan/proxmox-backup-server:latest \
backup root.pxar:/mnt/root --repository backup@pbs@neon.edelga.se:data --keyfile /etc/proxmox/argon-backup.key

Works incredibly well :-)

Everybody knows it’s stupid to run “sudo rm -rf /“. Besides such non-sense example, what are more realistic mistakes made by Linux users? Here are some 😎👇

🎉 Happy #FreeBSD Day!

On June 19, 1993, an email thread on an early BSD list proposed project names for a new #opensource UNIX derivative. “FreeBSD” was quickly agreed upon from a list of choices, according to @FreeBSDFoundation.

Thank you to everyone who helped shape this #opensource OS and its lasting impact on #tech over the last 32 years! 💻🎂

Shout out to @Framasoft for their awesome 'MostlyMatter' Mattermost fork removing the absurd 10k user limit, released within hours of official releases.

Saves a bunch of work. They work great.

Hey #infosec and #sysadmin friends, what's the go-to for data recovery of Windows partitions these days? Consumer grade, not forensics. Actually asking for a friend :D

Has anyone here had positive or negative experience with AMQP?

Dealing with clients. Rule of thumb: As bigger the organisation as less knowledge of the people one deals with.

They believe in strength in numbers. As more people are in a meeting, as more likely that one knows what's needed.

Unfortunately, it's not always working that way.

I've started a New Web Thing. New for me anyway - a collection of links (a #linkroll) to stuff I've found interesting!

Loads of other personal sites publish this kind of content, but I'm imitating one of my favourite sites (and not for the first time) with this: @shellsharks maintains Scrolls, a weekly wrap-up in a similar vein.

I've called mine scraps!

You can find the first scrap here: fyr.io/scrap/2025-06-18

Updated the #PeerTube platform on videos.abnormalbeings.space to version 7.2.1, everything seems to work as expected - update script was comfortable to use as usual - many thanks again for making this probably the easiest Fedi platform to maintain that I am running, even with the larger scale than my lemmy and masto instances :D

Crazy how #Cloudflare is actively destroying the net with their "checking if the site connection is secure" nonsense and others. Highly avoidable company for everyone with a spark of responsibility.

Sometimes I feel like I don't do that much at work. Then I start a work blog with weekly "what I did" posts and oh wow, I do a lot. That's why I feel stretched so thin sometimes. #sysadmin #systemslibrarian

A spoofing attack is a form of cyber deception where an attacker impersonates a trusted device, user, or session to trick systems into granting unauthorized access or privileges

Spoofing attacks can occur in various forms across multiple layers of the OSI model, as illustrated here 😎👇
