HomeLab V1 Logo

Description

This is the first version of my home lab server. I'll push all dashboard and configuration files for every service I have.
It's just a lab, not for production. You must check every service I host and select which you want to have on your own HomeLab.

Which Hypervisor do I use?

Today, I'm on Proxmox because it's cool, open source, simple, and doesn't need licenses if you don't need support.

List of Services

  • Pterodactyl
    It's for host servers like Minecraft and Discord Bot.

  • Grafana
    It's cool to see metrics and logs on one panel.
    If you want, you can see an example of the dashboards I have in this folder.

  • Jellyfin
    My Own Netflix platform.

  • Active Directory + Windows 10-11
    Sometimes, I test GPO and tricks to hack Active Directory and obtain information. For this part, I recommend GOAD Repository.

  • Docker
    If you don't know what Docker is, take a look at this video.

  • LXC
    Just an alternative to Docker. It can run containers too.

  • PfSense
    Just a simple router that can be virtualized.

  • Cadvisor
    Monitor your containers.

Futur

In the future, I would like to perform some automatizations with Terraform, Ansible, Packer, and other technologies for auto-deployment.
Furthermore, I'll create an isolated network for my teams and me to improve our pentest skills.
