I know i was really surprised how many there are. But honestly think of how many companies are using active directory and azure

What site is that tracker thing?

It gets more confusing when you read their user name

Because its not on a powerful google server, it’s just a volunteer. Some instances allow proxying to hide your ip but i believe it is more taxing on the server

I believe you can set up a http stream and then have others connect to it

You can add shows/movies and initiate the downloads with a request in the app

Best move is to try to do pivpn installer again and when it says we found a pihole installation do you want to use pihole with pivpn say no. If it still breaks uninstall pihole, install pivpn l, then reinstall pihole

I’ve never had an issue with pihole (i run them on the same device). Pivpn ibstaller typically detects pihole and juat sets it up as pivpn dns but you could also have it not do this in the installer

The easiest way is with pivpn

I have decided to use rrsync to do this.

Im using btrfs on the back drive but using ext4 on the remote devices. Wont the snapshots, if sent to a remote device be the same size as the original data?

I’ve tried it before but i want a situation where i dont need to use the ssh agent. I think i’m gonna go with using rrsync

Yeah this is what im leaning towards

I use it too but i like rsync better for backups

I probably will eventually. I put btrfs on it and it works pretty well. Im a little iffy on the windows driver but i tested obs and it can write over the network just fine.

Yeah it seems like it was a permissions error. I set the tight permissions and now i have it working

Ok i’m running into some issues. I have formatted with btrfs but immediately it does not work when attempting to mount.

I had it mounted and then set up with fstab, test installing some games to it but the second i ejected the device and then reattached it it cannot be mounted.

I get the error

An error occurred while accessing 'wd_black5tb', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sdb1: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error

I also installed winbtrfs with chocolatey but the drive fails to show up once plugged in and i dont see the drive anywhere

I’m not really worried about performance on windows since i will only very occasionally be plugging it in there. Ive never heard of udf but will check it out too

I’m leaning toward btrfs. Gonna set it up tonight and test. Is there any major differences from ext4 i should know? I know it has snapshots but i read about if you dont use the right kind of drives it can corrupt data, is thus true or not really something i should worry about?

So i mostly play older games (half life, skyrim, dishonored, etc) i have no issues with the mechanical drive for these. Now admittedly the larger games like skyrim i havent tried on linux only on windows but i dont see why it would be an issue.

I will probably eventually get a ssd for gaming and make the hdd purely for storage.

I have already recorded to this drive from the windows device with no issues. It is not intended to be super high quality tho. I just dont know if running over the network will go as smooth.

Rn, im leaning towards using btrfs bc it seems the performance speed between it and ext4 will be negligible and i will be testing out the driver for windows and obs over the network.

Did you read it at all?
