I have good experience with both QNAP and Synology boxes, running both
right now. I run regular HDD's in them, and have had them fail on both
systems, but have never had to restore data from online backup, as
their redundancy works very well (some sort of RAID solution).

Not a recommendation precisely but there's a guy on YouTube named Jeff
Geerling that's doing a lot of that sort of thing using a Raspberry Pi and
multiple SATA drives. I've just built my first RP4 box aimed at
astrophotography and I'm pretty impressed with how well the Pi works. My
next project will likely be some sort of NAS box using a second Pi4 with an
M.2 system drive.

There is a bootable Gentoo image for the Pi4. It was pretty zippy but it's
a year and a half old so if you're fixated on Gentoo you'd have a lot of
work to do vs using Ubuntu server or something prebuilt.

HTH,

Thanks, I'll try that when I have a suitably large chunk of free time.

Working fine here, with the following USE set:

USE="-gcrypt -ldap nls offensive pam -sasl secure-path (-selinux)
sendmail -skey ssl -sssd" ABI_X86="(64)"

I wonder if your issue isn't related to updated PAM libraries.  The
post emerge messages for PAM suggest either rebooting or restarting
certain services after upgrades.


I thought so too, but neither reboot, nor re-merging the PAM libraries 
made a difference. To be fully honest, for "re-merging the PAM 
libraries" I only looked at the immediate dependencies, so there's some 
room for error there. Still, I think the best next step is to try what 
others suggested: study the strace or the core file to try to understand 
in which library the problem occurres.




[gentoo-user] problem with tailscale and gentoo

2021-11-10 Thread John Covici
Hi.  I am having problems using tailscale on my gentoo system.  I am
in touch with them, but the hard part is that every single line that
the daemon logs when its up is logged to all the consoles**.  I wonder
if its logging everything in emergency mode or something?  I tried
StandardOutput=journal  and StandardError=inherit but still getting
all those lines on ALL consoles.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
