    And, can your parents do remote hands if you need to check something physically?

    My dad no, my mom has some knowledge that I can call. Worst case, I do have a pikvm there where I can ask her to connect the hdmi and usb cables so I can further troubleshoot if I can't access the device over the network (do have a site-to-site vpn between my lan and theirs)

    Oh that's actually a great setup you have there. Also for connecting are you using plain old SSH or do you have a VPN as well like Tailscale or something?

    I just use ssh and vnc/rdp as needed. Sometimes I do use the pikvm depending on what actually needs to be done. If I'm at home, I can just target those machines directly. If I'm away from home, I either vpn into my home network (then target them) or I will ssh in and tunnel the required ports.

    Ah ok. I am planning to Tailscale my home connection. Still trying to figure out the specifics of DNS as I have a dynamic IP at home.

    When using the Tailscale network you can use the built in DNS, and use the domains they provide. I generally just copy/paste the Tailscale IP from the app though as it's super convenient.

    Oh didnt know this was possible. So, Tailscale gives out domains even on the free plans?

    They're just local addresses that you can use while connected to the Tailscale network, of course. It's like having a LAN but all the devices are scattered over the internet.

    Oh I see. Ig I got some reading up to understand this in much more detail

    I've been using it forever, my devices are just always connected and it's seemless. My SSH and SCP/FTP programs mostly use Tailscale IPs in the saved connections as no matter where I am, as long as I have Internet access, the Tailscale network just works without you having to do anything.

    ALPINE LINUX ON RACKNERD!!

    WE WANT THE ALPINE NOT A BELLY ITCHER!

    ALPINE FTW ON RACKNERD - LOW RESOURCE USAGE + AWESOME SUPPORT + GREAT PRICES = PROFITS

    DEDICATED RASPBERRY PI CLUSTERS WITH ALPINE LINUX

    Honestly, I wish the raspberry pi colo some places offer would be cheaper. I would be happy to setup a pi5 with nvme at home, ship it, and then pay for the colo. I technically colo a pi at my parents place already :lol:

    You did mention that. This pi run Alpine?

    Nope, that pi runs ubuntu that I repartitioned/fully customized. I also have an intel nuc there that's still running the last free esxi which I had an alpine VM on for awhile. Though for racknerd, totally open a support ticket with the iso link and ask them to mount it so you can get it! They're super fast at responding and the novnc works perfect for installing a custom os!

    Oh thanks for confirming that. And yes, Bas had a great experience as expected with the RN support mounting the ISO for him.

    yeah, their first reply confirming I wanted a custom os where I have to fully support it (I wanted to try opensuse leap on a vps) was like 5 minutes after I submitted it. I forget how long it took for them to download/mount/etc but know that was also pretty fast.

    For my ticket it took them around 30 minutes to mount it, but it was early in the morning there, so i understand why it was a bit slower. First reply was in 15 minutes.

    Probably was peak business time maybe.

    I think he sent it in early on a saturday. Probably got line up wiht a couple other weekend requests as well

    My parents wouldnt be able to do that

    Mine as well.

    Maybe its worth educating them on such matters!

    It could be only if they have an interest in it as well.

    Tell them it can help grow the family business! FInd some ways to make it fun, that builds interest!

    Yah. Might have to finally try that. Would also take a bit of load from me.

    If you do remember Dustin did mention their average response time to be just 10 minutes!!!

    They have always been crazy fast in my experience, to get any faster they'd have to become mind readers.

    Lol! That's pretty accurate. My fastest was 3 minutes or less

    Thats more on par from what i usually see from them too. Great service!

    Are you rackman? That can be your super hero name

    Would love to wear that tag around.

    If i could assign it, i would give you the rackman tag. For now you will just have to know that is how i refer to you mentally each time i see your name now

    yeah sounds ike no issues with custom iso. Just more steps so not as fast as point and click

    Yup. It's quite normal.

    Yeah not too bad time wise though in the grand sheme of things! Would stink to do multiple installs though
