UrBackup Server:
Open Source client/server backup system, that through a combination of image and file backups accomplishes both data safety and a fast restoration time.
TLDR: Basically, it allows you to create a complete system backup, using a simple web interface, for systems on your network.
urbackup.png
Access web interface:
url = http://192.168.0.100:55414
NB: Change the IP address for your system.

Change where the backups will be stored:
Once you have the web interface open:
  • Select Settings
  • Change the Backup Storage Path. /mnt/dietpi_userdata/urbackup is recommended.
  • Click Save
  • Restart service with systemctl restart urbackupsrv
Download client:
Install the appropriate client on the systems you wish to backup.

Log System Choices:
Various logging method choices from lightweight to full.
If you don't require log files, get a performance boost. If you need full system logging features, DietPi can do that too.
logsystems.png
logsystems.png (27.86 KiB) Viewed 137866 times
Log System choices can be changed at any time by running dietpi-software and selecting "Log System" from the menu.

DietPi-Ramlog #1 (default):
Ideal for users who do not require log files.
+ Mounts /var/log to RAM.
+ Increases overall system performance.
+ Increases the life of your SDcard by reducing filesystem IO (read/writes).
+ DietPi will automatically clear log files in /var/log every hour (to free memory used by DietPi-Ramlog).
─ Log files are NOT saved to disk.
─ Rsyslog is not installed to save on resources. This may prevent some programs logging that rely on rsyslog. If required, it can be manually installed with apt-get install rsyslog

DietPi-Ramlog #2:
Ideal for users who require the ability to keep log files, with the benefit of improved performance.
+ Mounts /var/log to RAM.
+ Increases overall system performance.
+ DietPi will automatically save/update log file data to disk every hour /root/logfile_storage.
+ DietPi will then clear log files in /var/log (to free memory used by DietPi-Ramlog).
─ Potential of losing upto 1 hour of log file data if power is interrupted.
─ Will increase SD write cycles on an hour basis, to save logs (however, significantly less so than a constant log writing system, eg: Full logging mode): https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/view ... 58#p123670
─ Rsyslog is not installed to save on resources. This may prevent some programs logging that rely on rsyslog. If required, it can be manually installed with apt-get install rsyslog

Full (Rsyslog & Logrotate):
For users who require the maximum logging possible, with no interference from DietPi.
─ Mounts /var/log to DISK.
─ Decreases overall system performance
─ Reduces the life of your SDcard due to increased filesystem IO (read/write).
+ Comes with both rsyslog and logrotate installed as standard.
+ The "standard" of Linux logging systems, essential if your log file data is critical to system operation and/or maintenance.

Pi-hole

Post by Fourdee »

Deprecation warning: This post is deprecated. Please find our new documentation at: https://dietpi.com/docs/software/dns_servers/#pi-hole

Pi-hole
Pi-hole is a DNS/Web server that will block ads for any device on your network.
- Also Installs: Webserver stack

Pi-hole.gif

Access web interface:
  • URL= http://<your.IP/domain>/admin
  • Password = <yourGlobalSoftwarePassword> (default: dietpi)
Configure devices to use Pi-hole for DNS resolution:
  • Option 1 - Setup single devices to use the Pi-hole DNS server:
    Simply change your DNS settings to use the IP address of your Pi-hole device. This will need to be done for each device that you want Pi-hole to work with.

    Example:
  • Option 2 - Setup your router to use the Pi-hole DNS server:
    This method will automatically point every device (that uses DHCP) on your network to Pi-hole.
    On your routers control panel web page, you will need to find a option called "DNS server". This should be located under DHCP settings.

    Simply enter the IP address of your Pi-hole device under "DNS server":
    Pi-hole_router.png
    On your Pi-hole device, you will need to set a different DNS server.
    Depending on your router configuration, if you don't do this step, the Pi-hole device may not be able to access the internet. It's highly recommended to have the device running Pi-hole, pointing to a DNS server outside your network.
    • Run the following command: dietpi-config 8 1
    • Select: Ethernet
    • If you are running in DHCP mode, select Change Mode, then select: Copy Current address to Static
    • Select Static DNS from the list, then choose a DNS server, or manually enter a custom entry.
    • Once completed, select Apply to save the changes.
Updating Pi-hole: pihole -up

Repairing Pi-hole:
  • You can use pihole -r to repair or reconfigure your Pi-hole instance, but note to NOT select to install Lighttpd when being asked, as this will mix our own webserver stack setup with a different once provided by the Pi-hole installer, which causes various issues.
Accessing Pi-hole via OpenVPN or WireGuard:
  • To allow (OpenVPN or WireGuard) VPN clients accessing your local Pi-hole instance, you need to allow DNS requests from all network interfaces: pihole -a -i local
Optional: Pi-hole stats with DietPi-Cloudshell: (broken since Pi-hole v5 due to new query database, WIP)
