If you’re literally unfamiliar with the technical process of this, I suggest you go back and read a guide, so every step very literally, and then come back if you have a problem.

It’s very obvious that’s you’re skipping steps or ignoring something.

As long as it has Internet access you can do whatever you want like any other normal machine.

For running a Lemmy server, or you mean the desktop app? I’m confused on what your goal is here.

Yeah, that’s not a straight Debian image, it’s a yunohost image.

Stock Debian images are here: https://www.debian.org/distrib/

Where’d you get the image? It sure seems like you installed a yunohost image of Debian. See here for the default credentials to try logging in: https://doc.yunohost.org/admin/command_line/

Need more info. Is this in a desktop, via SSH…etc?

Where’d you get the Debian image from?

Plug it into a machine, mount the drive, then copy the data off of it. You can get an external USB drive adapter for cheap if needed.

Nothing made with purely HTML would be capable of this.

TPM2+Tang+Clevis. You’ll need to get really familiar with the TPM registers to properly set something up that will meet specific criteria, but you can make a pretty safe system with Tang that you can enable/disable remotely.

All data and benchmarks would disagree with you. If you find something showing that SMB isn’t slower than the others mentioned, I’d love to see it.

I think you’re asking about the Samba share? If it works, there’s no real downside except the speed and general wonkiness of the SMB protocol.

As I would rank the different options:

1. Rsync+SSH would be fastest if you’re sending entire directories and not packaging first. A bit slower if sending huge files.
2. NFS would be fastest if sending prepackaged large files, but overall slower if sending a bunch of smaller files
3. SMB will be slowest in any scenario, but may be easier for you

Maybe give Zerotier a shot. Similar premise as Tailscale, but a simplified NAT and routing implementation.

My overall question though is…why??? If you have access to a VPN, why would you connect to another location to use it when you can just use it from anywhere?

Just empathetic. Is that bad now?

If you’ve been running these “for years”, you certainly should know the pitfalls of switching to a brand new distro. Like the exact situation you’re asking about.

You should also know that packages tagged as compatible with another version of any distro won’t harm your current one to just install and find out if it works.

As many other commenters are saying, we don’t know what your problem is, or why you’re here.

BUT THATS NOT WHAT I LIKE TO UUUSSSEEEEE WAAAAHHHHHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Exactly. Getting downvoted by plebs because of this.

When people like you stopping coming in here with useless comments and complaints, I’ll stop responding to them. 🫰

Man, if you’re this green, just go back to RHEL 9 until they come back and tell you it’s okay to do exactly as they say. Did you just come here to complain, or do you honestly not know how this all works?

Literally download the RPMs like I said if you don’t know how to use backref repos.

🤦

So do like I said and visit the Docker official docs, setup the RHEL repos, and install it. Or, you can just install the ROM packages individually. OR you can wait a few weeks until the official packages show up which will ease the the same thing.

Your choice.
