I don’t make my network accessible from the internet. Anything i need remove access to i would put out on a cheap vps. If i had to do it on my home network i would use a siloed vlan with vpn access.

I don’t wait to be asked how much I am expecting to be paid. I generally ask the HR person what the salary range is for the role. You have 8 years experience so you can demand the top end of that pay scale.

What is a good transcoder? I haven’t ran my media through one. Is the space saving significant? Did you lose video quality?

It can be done. It’s not worth the work involved. You could firewall off the two proxmox instances from each other and your own network. Then allow VPN access into the environment. You’ll have to allow the machines access to the Internet to get software updates. The moment you do that you’re opening the door to them making an outbound tunnel to make services publicly accessible. Then you’ve got every bot on the internet scanning your services for vulnerabilities/exploits.

I do the same. I have probably 20 VMs on my home lan. Then I have about 4 servers with various providers.

how much of the 20tb is used?

Either proxmox or esxi

It was a joke.

I dont understand why you’re getting downvoted for this.

Ive been using esxi (free copy) for years. Same situation. Being able to spin up virtual machines or take a snapshot before a major change has been priceless. I started off with smaller nuc computers and have upgraded to full fledged desktops.

Have you considered doing an RFP?

I was going to mention mcafee. Its a built in option for synology nas. However it appears that software has gone end of life.

You’re not wrong.

The last paragraph he calls out that he doesnt want to hear this.

Get a copy of vmware (esxi) or proxmox and load it on that secondary pc.

Chkrootkit isn’t an antivirus.

Get a deer finder is power isnt available either

Your browser doesnt like your certificate. You setup the networking correctly because its able to get the certificate.
