Quick status of my journey getting back access to my servers and services

- Permalink

Following the previous posts, tonight I’ll do a quick update of were I am.

At this stage, I regained access to about half of my servers and services. I haven’t fix all my proxmox VMs/Containers yet because I work on getting back access to the hosted services at the same time. Getting access to the server is easy, as I wrote already, but sometimes getting back access to the services takes a longer time. I didn’t go through them all yet.

In term of selfhosted services on my proxmox servers, I regained access to NginxProxyManager (I’ll write a short post about it because it was a bit weird process), miniflux, the hosted sites (like this one) and sengil (mastodon multi user client). NginxProxyManager was a key one and I’m glad I didn’t have to reinstall it from scratch… Even though I had to update the DB directly for it…

What I think/hope I can regain access in the next days without reinstalling them: forgejo, uptime kuma, willow, ntfy, linkding and syncthing. Forgejo, Ntfy and Linkding being the most important ones, I don’t mind reseting the others. What will probably needs to be reinstalled from scratch: watchyourlan, picoshare and homepage (but the last one will most probably be removed).

I also regained access to 2 of the rasperrby pi (out of 3), so I got back my access to kodi/jellyfin and pihole.

Today I regained access to all 3 of my digital ocean droplets. That part was easy enough via the digital ocean UI. I have fixed my access to my mastodon accounts managed by gotosocial but still need to work on the 2 others: mailcow and my matrix server. But for the later, I might nuke it as I think it’s too heavy for my small usage. I’m not going to write about retrieving access to gotosocial as it provides a simple command line tools where you can change the password. So after getting the access to the VM, it was as easy as writing 1 command per user while following the official documentation.

It’s slowly but surely progressing, getting back my different accesses little by little… The road is still long, but I’m getting there :).
