Help me Build a Small Community
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
I originally asked for things along the lines of survival: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/4805526
With the following resources, it seems our community is off the ground in terms of bare necessities:

Now, what is the best FOSS way to set up communication within the compound (and between our 2 communities)?
The following list will help serve as a springboard for the types of things we're looking for:
- Open-source server operating systems (e.g., Linux distributions)
- Open-source web servers (e.g., Apache HTTP Server, Nginx)
- Open-source database servers (e.g., MariaDB, PostgreSQL)
- Open-source application servers (e.g., Apache Tomcat, WildFly)
- Open-source server virtualization platforms (e.g., KVM, VirtualBox)
- Open-source network monitoring tools (e.g., Nagios, Zabbix)
- Open-source load balancing solutions (e.g., HAProxy, Pound)
- Open-source server backup and recovery tools (e.g., Bacula, Amanda)
- Open-source security tools for server hardening (e.g., Fail2Ban, ModSecurity)
- Open-source server configuration management tools (e.g., Puppet, Ansible)
- Open-source server monitoring and performance analysis tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana)
- Open-source server provisioning and deployment tools (e.g., Foreman, Cobbler)
- Open-source server access control and authentication systems (e.g., FreeIPA, OpenLDAP)
- Open-source server backup and replication solutions (e.g., Bareos, DRBD)
- Open-source server log management and analysis tools (e.g., ELK Stack, Graylog)
- Open-source server file and storage systems (e.g., Samba, Ceph)
- Open-source server containerization and orchestration platforms (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
- Open-source server firewall and packet filtering systems (e.g., iptables, ufw)
- Open-source server monitoring and management solutions (e.g., OpenNMS, Cockpit)
- Open-source server collaboration and communication tools (e.g., Nextcloud, Jitsi)
Edit: How do I make bullet points look normal on mobile? Sync has the page looking INSANE vs the desktop preview.
Sorry, maybe it’s me but I don’t find it clear what you need. Like, the actual scope of all of this. And which are the 2 communities you wanna link? Actual physical communities and so you are building a physical network? I’m not sure what are you aiming for 😮
Physical places.
Likely to be 2 intranets communicating in an extranet. But we are open to things like Usenet, LAN / PAN / WAN / MAN / CAN / VPN / EPN / SAN / POLAN / etc.
Do you have any whitepaper on what you're building or planning? You're reply just raises more questions. CAN is automotive networking for things like electronic braking or transmission shifting. What are you building? Without some form of intended application, this is just a random list of open source projects.
