All the options I gave are self-hosted DNS. They mostly leverage Unbound under the hood but “the people” have spoken and they like a nice GUI. I’m afraid - and I say this as someone who actually owned the grasshopper book on DNS and BIND - the days of BIND in homelabs are over except for the diehards. All three options also do DHCP, by the way, and adblocking through dynamic lists.
Ah Docker, my old nemesis. The problem is exactly that there doesn’t seem to be just one post that tells you what to do. Next point is that the changes in ZFS 2.2 allow the use of overlay2 in a more performant way which has never been properly documented or Incus or LXD (that I have seen) :
eg Reddit - Dive into anything
Lots of folks say it can now be used and there is general carousing, but no one explains how to enable it properly in one shot. So many confusing options and pitfalls :
And why not cover shiftfs too :
I see some evangelists here pushing Podman, but unfortunately the whole homelab crowd is basically not interested. It’s a shame, but there it is. I would also expect that anyone wanting Podman would be capable of deploying it themselves, whereas the typical Docker crowd will require some handholding - even me, post the ZFS changes. For example, where should the the persisted data for the Docker containers be stored after you’ve configured ZFS delegates? Is it different for volumes and mounts (presumably not)?
