Homelab@selfhosted.forum•Can someone please explain to me, a casual home user, why it's dangerous to expose my NAS login page to the internet?...English

1·3 years agoI did start over recently - Dell R730 salvaged from work, 64 cores, 256GB RAM
Took the guts and moved it to a Machinist X99 motherboard in a Rosewill server case so I could put in silent fans and have room for 15 drives.
Proxmox hypervisor booting on 2x 2TB NVME drives.
Bought 6 x 16TB drives and a HBA to run them, then did HBA passthru to a virtual machine running Truenas which mounts everything as a samba share
Multiple other Ubuntu VM’s running docker compose. One VM runs utility / ARRS, 2nd VM runs Plex so that my media playback isn’t affected by utility. These servers mount the TrueNAS samba shares for file processing. That way they are booting/running on NVME but media is on spinning iron.
Also have LXC running Adguard Home for DNS based adblock/malware protection for the entire house. Also have a Raspberry PI as a 2nd DNS server.
Several Windows VM’s used for work (I connect to customer environments so I spin up a separate VM for each customer to keep their environments isolated.
I have an O365 instance hosting my own domain for mail
