@gsuberland im not much into the whole ecosystem, but if you want to do this kind of customization why not just like run an ordinary Linux server distribution and set things up how you want?
@necrophcodr 1) because if I was doing it myself then Linux can fuck right off, it is miserable to use, I'd use FreeBSD instead
2) because I'm running a NAS, and TrueNAS significantly reduces the maintenance overhead, risk of data loss, etc. by providing sane defaults, alerting features, etc. plus easy management of Samba and such.
I'm using TrueNAS CORE (the FreeBSD based one) on my NAS, which uses jails for hosting stuff, and it's a breeze. super simple, works great. but ix EOL'd it.
