It’s Sunday somewhere already so why wait?
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
I’ll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn’t want to forget the post again.
Set up paperless-ngx and cannot get my scanner to send a scan to a FTP server. It supposedly supports sending to FTP but doesn’t have much documentation for it. I’ve tried FTPS, SFTP, and unsecured FTP. Both secure types just cause it to error out. But with unsecured the scanner just freezes then reboots. Really annoying me. I’m about to give up and just scan to s USB thumb drive then copy the scans to the server.
I had to have my scanner scan to a windows VM that saves it to a network drive for paperless to injest. Its not my favorite solution but at least I don’t have to manually move the files around
The scanner also supports sending to email. I will try that before setting up a windows VM. I was just tubing i would use USB for the initial import of my file cabinet.
I’m having some crazy deja vu reading this 5 comment thread…
It’s been a few months since I visited one of these general “how’s everyone’s week been” threads, but the last time I did someome else was talking about just having setup paperless, struggling to get their scanner to print to ftp, thinking about email, someone had suggested wireshark; it feels like I just re-read that exact conversion again, but they’re new comments…
Freaky.
