Reminder: Meeting tonight! Topic: Intel Pocket PC (and possible give away!)
Hey Everybody! We've got a meeting tonight!! Location: Hudson Public Library Time: 7pm Topic: Intel Pocket PC running RetroArch, etc. I was given four of these tiny pocket pc's. I'm going to run RetroArch on one and see what we get. I also think they'd be cool as a plex driver for a TV as well. Beyond that, there's a lot going on in the linux world, from the Intel pay for features stuff to the Nvidia opening up ( a tiny bit ). We should also talk about where we'd like to host meetings. I reached out to Frank and it looks like WPI is back on the table. Would that work better for people? See ya there! Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
Cannot make it tonight on vacation with family. For future meetings, either WPI or a more Worcester-ish location would help. Joel On June 16, 2022 7:58:23 PM Tim Keller via WLUG <wlug@lists.wlug.org> wrote:

Will the same video conference link be used? On 6/16/2022 2:04 PM, Joel via WLUG wrote:

I am having trouble with getting pi-hole working with my Asustore NAS. I think I have traced it down to an issue with the docker install. I did verify that the docker CE (community edition) was also installed. Per a tutorial about docker, I should be able to run something like hello world and it will install.

The = is from "ls -F", it means it's a socket file (which we also see from the "s" file type in "ls -l" and the filename is also a good indicator). I have no experience with docker, but the error message and other quoted bits implies you're running things as user "admin" which I'd guess doesn't have user or group root privileges so you can't write to the file.

If you are attempting to run containers without being root, I would recommend that you use Podman rather then Docker. It is much more secure.

Sorry for the delay, I have just restarted work so I was busy with life related stuff. My NAS box is an X86, so that might explain why I could not get PI-Hole working. I also noticed significant disk thrashing when I left pi-hole running long enough (even though I could not configure it). My personal suspicion is that some kind of permission needs to be set top allow configuration. Pi-Hole is currently uninstalled until I get more than 2G ram for the NAS box. I do plan to run memtest86 immediately after installing the additional ram. I did get docker to run by running "sudo ash" before running the docker commands. Obviously the SSH login did not provide root permission even though I used the admin account. On 6/29/2022 4:32 PM, John Stoffel wrote:

But in general, I think you need to run docker as root so that it has the permissions to do stuff properly. But I only have one docker container running, so that's what I do.

Yeah, I was out busy last night so couldn't make it. Hope the meeting went well. Hudson has been fine, but Worcester also works for me since I'm in the middle. Moving it around to new locations to make it easy for people isn't a bad idea.
Hey Tim/Everyone, Speaking for myself, Worcester works better for me. Ron On 6/16/22 13:58, Tim Keller via WLUG wrote:
