  • Dunno about ideal, but it should work.

    It does have quite a bit of overhead, meaning it’s not the fastest out there, but as long as it’s fast enough to serve the media you need, that shouldn’t matter.

    Also, you need to either mount it manually on the command line whenever you need it or be comfortable with leaving your SSH private key in your media server unencrypted. Since you are already concerned with needing to encrypt file share access even in the local network, the latter might not be a good option to you.

    The good part about it is, as long as you can ssh from your media server to your NAS, this should just work with no additional setup needed.














  • Honestly, that was a bit of a wise crack. What I am doing with those two things (plus a number of other that are required these days, notably for DKIM) is running my own mail server.

    Fair warning: Doing that costs money, time and effort, and messing it up can lead to… interesting results. (You usually don’t want “interesting” for something as fundamental as your email.)

    If you are still interested, join us in [email protected]. (Still figuring out how to properly link to a community on lemmy. In the meantime, look for it under “Communitys”.)

    The postfix mail server can be found here: https://www.postfix.org/
    The Cyrus IMAP server can be found here: https://www.cyrusimap.org/

    Additionally, I also use roundcube so I can have a web interface for email.
