Hello

I installed bitwarden via their install script a while back and all was working well.

recently I wanted to start running a reverse proxy because security and also its cooler to type in a domain name instead of numbers. I disabled the ngnix instance that bitwarden had installed because it was hogging the same ports a Ngnix Proxy Manager.

Now how should I get Bitwarden accessable? I have the .conf file from the bitwarden Ngnix instance, can I just load that into NMP somewhere?

or should I just change the ports the old ngnix operates on and point NPM at it when the bitwarden subdomain is accessed?

if it was just one service it would be simple but there are many running in the bitwarden stack, all on the same port and I'm very new to ngnix so I can't fully grasp what the .conf file is doing and I'm unable to add new passwords to bitwarden until I get this sorted out.

Thanks

Edit: bitwarden is in docker container, as is Nginx Proxy Manager

Hi guy, I've managed to get bitwarden up and running in a docker instance as per the instructions provided by bitwarden here.

Its up and available inside and outside the local network but I can't figure out how to get it to connect to an email provider so it can send verification emails and invitations. I used my Microsoft hosted email, lets call it [email protected] (domain provided by a 3rd party).

I've edited the global.override.env file to suit the values given by Microsoft and opened port 587 in my router, (unclear whether they want SSL or TLS but I've tried both)

I've also tried to connect with my gmail but no luck. When I try to verify my email I just get "An unhandled server error has occurred"

Bitwarden is also accessed through bitwarden.mydomain.com.au in this example.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, or even let me know where I might find relevant logs. the stuff in the /bwdata/ folder hasn't been very helpful.

The only thing I can think of is that when I run "docker ps" in the terminal, none of the bitwarden related containers seem to be specifically passing port 587 through, but that was never mentioned in the guide, and I don't know which container would need it.

Thanks

EDIT: I've closed port 587. I also ran the recommended telnet commands to check if I could get to the STMP server and got back a response including STARTTLS so that all good

I found these log entries in the api folder.

I then followed the link supplied by google, it leads to a page about two factor authentication and app passwords. After enabling two factor authentication, generating an app password through gmail and using that password in the global.override.env file it's now all working.

Thanks for your help guys.

Still can't figure out how to get an app password from Microsoft though.

Hello this isn't strictly 'selfhosted' material but there seems to be a lot of networking knowledge in this group.

I'm thinking of leveraging my universities network to assist in downloading "Linux ISO's" via torrent. I thought a cool little project would be and old rasberry pi with a battery pack, wifi radio and an external hdd in a box would be cool.

Considering I have to use a university supplied email and password, unique to me, to connect to the wifi (only once then it connects like normal). How obvious will it be that I am downloading "Linux ISO's"? I'd definitely be running a VPN as a base level of privacy.

Also if there is a better community for this please point me in the right direction. Reddit's adds were annoying but it was definitely easier to stumble onto relevant subreddits.

Hey all

Been playing around with plex and the *arr's for a while on my main desktop.

Now looking to set up a server to run plex, downloads, pi hole and eventually some other backup's.

Unfortunately the PC I had laying around is 32bit and it seems like most things are removing support for that architecture if they haven't already. Now I'm faced with the problem/opportunity of getting something new (to me).

But I'm struggling with the absolute sea of options out there and also don't want to spend on brand new gear.

There's quite a bit of server grade hardware floating around (like a Dell Poweredge server T410, 32GB ram, Intel Xeon E5645 2.13GHz Quad-core for $100AUD) or even rackmount gear (probably overkill but a boy can dream).

Or should I just get a consumer case with the most drive bays I can find and build from there?

Lowish power consumption is a priority, planning on running ubuntu or similar.

Any and all tips welcome! Thanks.

Hi All.

I bought It Takes Two through Steam a while ago but only got around to installing it recently. I now realise it uses EA's launcher which is a big piece of shit. Add is some issues linking my EA account to my Steam account and I'm done with it.

It's been a while since I pirated any games, it used to just involve a key gen or copying a few modified files into the right directories.

These days I see whole 'repacks' from fit girls and skid rows.

Is there anything I can do with the game I've already downloaded or do I need to download a repack from someone?

Thanks In Advance.
