Building on our last article, we’ll make the Proxmox VE 6.0 subscription warning dialog disappear when logging in to the web interface.
If you find Proxmox VE useful, you should consider getting a subscription to this great product. You’ll get support and more stable packages with one.
Note: Please be careful when trying this out! I can’t guarantee that it’ll work properly!
Preparation First, you’ll need a computer or two to install Proxmox VE.
This time, we’ll make customizations to Proxmox VE permanent across upgrades to the system. We’ll create a hook for apt, the package manager used by Proxmox VE, that executes a script reapplying the customizations. I use a similar solution to make various customizations and changes to Proxmox VE running on low-power Intel NUC nodes persist.
Note: If you are logged in as root (I think you should be logged in as another user), leave out sudo in the commands below.
Proxmox VE 6.0 is an incredible virtualization platform that works great on everything from low-power computers like the Intel NUC to Threadripper PRO workstations and massive AMD EPYC-based servers with up to 128 cores, 256 threads, and 4TB RAM. And Proxmox VE is free, too!
However, it uses enterprise subscription-only repositories by default and won’t allow you to install upgrade packages without a subscription. Instead, this article will show you how to use free, no-subscription repositories.
This tutorial will show you how to easily remove the desktop interface from your NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit to run it in headless mode. This can be useful for using the NVIDIA Jetson Nano as a small, low-power server with machine-learning capabilities.
The NVIDIA Jetson Nano is a mighty little single-board computer with a Quad Core ARM64 CPU, 4GB LPDDR4 RAM, and a 128-core NVIDIA Tegra (Maxwell-based) GPU, all while using as little as 5 watts.
This article will be more networking-oriented. We’ll enable an OpenVPN server on MikroTik RouterOS, and we’ll do so on the router with the shortest of names, the MikroTik RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD-IN. It should work on other MikroTik routers as well. We’ll be using RouterOS console in this article, but you should be able to do this with Webfig or Winbox too.
Generate CA and Certificates To use OpenVPN securely, we’ll need certificates. Change the values (my_ca_name and 10.
In this article, we’ll install Plex Media Server on SmartOS. Plex Media Server is a media server that organizes and makes available audio, video, and more. Smart OS is a “converged container and virtual machine hypervisor” based on illumos, which is a fork of the now-defunct OpenSolaris. SmartOS supports Linux-branded containers (zones), allowing us to install Plex Media Server on SmartOS. These instructions might also work on other illumos distributions with some modifications.
