An OmniOS ZFS Fileserver
Total security for the data and best flexibility for future expansion
This series of articles started as simple reminder to myself of the steps required to prepare my server, in case I need it again, and to produce some documentation for other users willing to follow the same path (of pain) and not finding enough information on the web about OmniOS, then it was expanded to produce a complete series of articles on the topic. Not only the software, but the hardware is described and commented too, including some opinions about alternative prebuilt solutions.
Questions concerning the topic of these articles should be written in the comments of the appropriate page or sent me by email (see my personal page on the left).
The articles I planned or I wrote are the following:
- Why a NAS and Which One
- OmniOS: The Hardware
- OmniOS: Installation and Basic Setup
- OmniOS: How to Install TransmissionBT
- OmniOS: Postfix And Stunnel
- OmniOS: Two-Factor Authentication
- OmniOS: Installation of HTTPi
- OmniOS: Netatalk with PAM Authentication
- OmniOS: Automatic Snapshots with Znapzend
