Technitium DNS Server VS openbooks

It works on minimal hardware. I am running it on an Orange Pi 3 LTS.

#!/bin/bash # Check input file if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 " exit 1 fi # Configurable value for zip file suffix SUFFIX="daily" # Get input file DNS_FILE=$1 # Read lines while read -r line; do HOSTNAME=$(echo $line | cut -d',' -f1) IP=$(echo $line | cut -d',' -f2) TOKEN=$(echo $line | cut -d',' -f3) # Construct API URL with IP and token, change any unwanted settings below to false as documented in https://github.com/TechnitiumSoftware/DnsServer/blob/master/APIDOCS.md#backup-settings URL="http://$IP:5380/api/settings/backup?token=$TOKEN&blockLists=true&logs=true&scopes=true&apps=true&stats=true&zones=true&allowedZones=true&blockedZones=true&dnsSettings=true&logSettings=true&authConfig=true" # Construct output file name FILE_NAME=$HOSTNAME-$IP-$(date +%Y%m%d)-$SUFFIX.zip # Call API curl -o $FILE_NAME $URL done < $DNS_FILE

You can try using a DNS/DHCP server other than the Windows one, e.g. Technitium I use this on Linux but as it is written in Dotnet it will of course also work on Windows https://technitium.com/dns/

I recently made an effort to harden my network due to (technically) exposing more of it with FireZone (WireGuard). For the curious, I shared some details in a recent comment. I didn't mention it in the comment, but I also set up local DNS (Technitium) with block lists.

Thanks for asking. There is already a feature request on Github for it. It is not planned to be implemented for now since there are some core features that are prioritized to be implemented. But it should come later once the planned features are implemented.

How would this compare to https://technitium.com/dns/?

I am working on open source DNS server project since a few years adding features to it whenever I get time: https://github.com/TechnitiumSoftware/DnsServer

There are already some very good ebooks solutions out there so there's really no need. Calibre for the backend and database management, Calibre-Web for the front end, and Openbooks for content.

OpenBooks - Download books from IRC Highway

I’ve got a feeling this if the wrong sub for this kind of request. However, in the mood of selfhosted, here is an app you can host to help you find books you might want.

I love openbooks by evan-buss. I want a version of that for audio books or at least a way to turn those PDF book into audio book with an actual human voice not the robot voice. Does anyone know if there is anything out there like that?

Some things don't have user controls or auth built in that I do share and for that I use cloudflare (openbooks is one such example).

OpenBooks https://github.com/evan-buss/openbooks That's the one I use for individual books. Easy to use.

There are also things like the IRC Highway that allow you to search for books and download them using IRC (https://github.com/evan-buss/openbooks is a friendly UI for using this). You can also check subreddits like r/opendirectories which might have books in PDF format etc.
