I didn’t say you were, I said you were asking about a topic that enters that area.

You’re entering the realm of enterprise AI horizontal scaling which is $$$$

I thought I had a lot of RAM with 64

Import it into the trust store in the browser/OS. It should be the same (or very similar) operation for a self-signed cert and a CA that isn’t subordinate to the standard internet root CAs.

If you can’t import your own root CA cert then you’re probably screwed on both fronts and are going to have to use certs issued by a public CA that’s subordinate to a commonly trusted root CA.

My point here is that there’s little distinguishing a self-signed cert and a cert issued by your own private CA for most people that are self-hosting.

Trust the self signed cert. Works similarly to trusting a CA.

Running your own CA is essentially still a form of self signed. Though it will work better for some use cases (at the cost of more complexity)

You don’t need a public DNS record for https to work. You can just use public external certs as long as it’s for a domain you own. You don’t need to setup the same domains externally.

If you want certs for a domain you own, then yeah you’re looking at self signed.

You may be thinking like a programmer but the guy you responded to is thinking like a software engineer.

Encryption in transit even internally is a good practice. That said, op is making life hard by refusing to use DNS.

I feel like op is about to find out why businesses pay for cloud services.

You just described a load balancer. The router doesn’t know about DNS but clients using your service use DNS. You can do some simple load balancing behind DNS. If you want to do it by IP address you want a load balancer though.

If overcomplicating things is a concern for you, then just use let’s encrypt. Running your own ca is a pain in the ass and probably decreases security for most people due to the difficulty of doing it correctly.

I’d be interested in a community for commercial sysadmin type stuff, but the ones I’ve seen are all pretty dead. I am one of those people that work in the industry.

They’re making a KVM targeted at data centers that doesn’t support VGA?

Ceph is a huge amount of overhead, both engineering and compute resources, for this usecase.

Sometimes I think this community should be called homelab instead of selfhosted based on the kinds of questions

What’s the cost and impact of downtime for you? If you’re doing this for personal use it’s probably minimal for both so doesn’t really matter. If you want to try the new thing and you’re not afraid of the time investment or potential downtime then go for it

Runc is native.

It’s been a long time since I took it but these are two I recall being helpful. There is a ton of material out there in this cert. I think I recall the official book being helpful too.

Part 1 and part 5 look most applicable to you. You’re unlikely to ever need or want to mess with dynamic routing unless you’re doing networking for very large networks for example.
