What does the 3-2-1 rule look like for you? (lemm.ee)
 

I'm trying to plan a better backup solution for my home server. Right now I'm using Duplicati to back up my 3 external drives, but the backup is staying on-site and on the same kind of media as the original. So, what does your backup setup and workflow look like? Discs at a friend's house? Cloud backup at a commercial provider? Magnetic tape in an underground bunker?

You can't just leave us without the story!

It'll be a great run or a great story!

[SOLVED] Problem getting Samba to work in c/linux4noobs@programming.dev

Thank you, creating my own config file from scratch worked. Not sure if I'm remembering wrong. For some reason I thought in the past it was created with the install.

Yeah, I was trying to figure out why the install didn't create a config file or a log file. Can't do setup without the config.

Thank you. Removed the samba package and installed following the instructions. It still didn't create a config or a log file. I'll keep troubleshooting.

I'll appreciate it if you have a chance to check. I ran sudo apt update --fix-missing and didn't see anything.

I've installed Samba on my Debian 12 home server but can't get it to start. I ran:

sudo systemctl start smbd
sudo systemctl status smbd

Here is the output:

   Duration: 7h 25min 18.079s
  Condition: start condition failed at Fri 2025-02-14 17:13:11 EST; 14min ago
       Docs: man:smbd(8)
             man:samba(7)
             man:smb.conf(5)
    Process: 598599 ExecCondition=/usr/share/samba/is-configured smb (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
        CPU: 1ms

Feb 14 17:13:11 harvee systemd[1]: smbd.service: Skipped due to 'exec-condition'.
Feb 14 17:13:11 harvee systemd[1]: Condition check resulted in smbd.service - Samba SMB Daemon being skipped.

The install also doesn't seem to have created a samba configuration directory in /etc or a log in /var/log

I'm stumped. Googling turns up a lot of people accidentally checking the status of 'samba' instead of 'smbd', but I'm not finding much on this issue. What am I doing wrong?

I could see that, but I also run with an arm strap phone carrier

Depending on how technical the race is and how much elevation it has, you should have no problem finishing after using a marathon training plan with 30-50 miles per week: https://www.scienceofultra.com/resources/mileage-minimums

Sounds like the vert is a little more serious than Africa but yeah, my initial thought was, "isn't that just a normal commute for some people?"

Exactly. Although I haven't worn mine to the sauna yet...that might be the next test. I put a small one in my backyard so I usually just grab a robe for the walk to it and back and a towel to sit on.

What am I missing without expensive running shorts? (lemm.ee)
 

Bought a few $10 pairs of gym shorts from a big box store, probably an 8" inseam. I wear boxer brief style compression undies when I run, so netting and how they feel on my skin isn't really an issue. They have side pockets that are fine for carrying my key fob, which is the only thing I really need for most runs. On runs they seem completely adequate. What am I missing by not wearing more expensive or nicer shorts purpose made for running? Is it one of those things where if I try something nicer I won't be able to go back?
