Actually gonna start using my polywork page now.

Also pointed my domain here. Too busy to write my own website atm.

Building an Internal DNS Server - 214

Time to add another DNS server to the network. This could be considered a small project. It still has a lot of moving parts. What OS should we use? What hardware should we use? Can we manage another server? #sysadmin Building an Internal DNS Server - 214 — SECTION 9

Well, this is new. I've never used an ALIAS Record to set up a custom domain before. Usually I'd just use an A or CNAME record.

Deployed Pi-hole on a Raspberry Pi to efficiently block ads, trackers & potentially bad websites on my local network .

I created small shell script that allows me to update my dns records on Cloudflare using their API, so that I can have a domain name that always points to my dynamic IP.

The script can be found here:

Set up https://polywork.0az.io!

As it turns out, you don't need to set up Cloudflare Workers, or fiddle around with the Host header, like the custom domain docs imply. All you need to do is disable proxying in the Cloudflare dashboard for your alias.

(I don't have anything else set up for that domain… yet!)
