<h1>Servers & Networking</h1>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Open source and networking hobbies led me to depoly a set of
|
|
interconnected Linux servers:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>NGINX Reverse Proxy and VPN Server</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This server is the internets access to all of my other servers,
|
|
and the glue holding them together. I was using IPTables briefly
|
|
but have moved to NGINX to forward traffic from specified ports
|
|
onto private servers connected to it. This device doubles as a <a
|
|
href="https://www.wireguard.com/">Wireguard VPN</a
|
|
> server which in the past connected servers on the same virtual
|
|
network, however I have switched to reverse ssh tunnels to connect
|
|
other servers to this one. The VPN is still useful for odd networking
|
|
tasks and troubleshooting.

<h3>Lightweight Server</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Running on Raspberry Pi, this servers main job is to run
|
|
Subterstrike servers, Minecraft servers, other game servers, and
|
|
this website you're looking at.

<h3>AI & FTP Server</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A powerful computer with an RX 6950 XT GPU runs my local
|
|
generative AI servers including <a
|
|
href="https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/">Invoke AI</a
|
|
>
|
|
for Image Generation,
|
|
<a href="https://ollama.com/?ref=useaiforit">Ollama</a>
|
|
and <a href="https://docs.openwebui.com/">Open-WebUI</a> for LLM
|
|
services. As this is also my primary device with a few spare
|
|
terabytes of NVMe storage it contains a
|
|
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vsftpd"
|
|
>VSFTPD file server</a
|
|
>. By the way, this server runs on
|
|
<a href="https://archlinux.org/"><i>Arch Linux</i></a> :)

<h3>Derelict Laptop Promoted to Server</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
An ancient gaming laptop with significantly more computational
|
|
performance than physical durability was promoted to server,
|
|
where it runs my <a href="https://nextcloud.com/about/"
|
|
>Nextcloud</a
|
|
>
|
|
self hosted office suite. While originally this was a 'because I
|
|
can' project, I felt justified when I later saw
|
|
<a

|
|
>Microsoft announcing USA demands come before Canadian
|
|
privacy</a
