Since the video went live this morning, Proxmox support has been added to easily manage Proxmox servers with a quick login. Again, though, this is still in early development and shouldn't be used in production just yet.
Dude, I love your channel! Finally someone who has done the heavy lifting and found the sweet free & open source apps that make a real difference. Much appreciated & hope you keep it up!
@@DBTechYT Yes, I can set it up in docker and paste all my ssh-keys for all connections in it, so I have one secure point from where I can get to every system in my homelab. That´s a simple but perfect working jump-server, that can be used in browser from every machine.
You put out these videos at the perfect time. I was just looking for something exactly like this! I've tried guacamole (ui is terrible imo, no native dark mode, installation is kind of complex), teleport (going paid now), kasm (extra bloat just for this use), and others.
So... with Dockge.... it's a 2 part thing. The first part is that Portainer is my go-to out of habit. The second part is that the official release of Dockge hasn't been updated in 7 months. hub.docker.com/r/louislam/dockge github.com/louislam/dockge So, yeah... that's why I'm using Portainer over Dockge at the moment.
Ah that makes sense. Just love the clean interface of dockge it would fit right in with nexterm very similar. Hopefully others take up the task to maintain dockge too.
I think setups like Cosmos, CasaOS, etc. are good to get familiar with certain aspects of self-hosting, but I like to set things up my own way, so, while I used them for a while for their convenience, I wanted something more (and less at the same time) so I quit using setups like that. But, if you just want a simple setup that "just works" they are often a good way to go. :)
Looks like Guacamole in sexii if I am not mistaken wonder how ssh keys to connect to the endclients will be handled in the final product. Just missing Powershell - I don't see any use for RDP for Server Managment honestly and even less VNC. IAM could also be a big topic strange that the certs\keys not are displayed or do you have a CERT entity which you fed in your instance which we didnt see?
Awesome video!! One challenge I have found as a newer home labber is knowing when to update docker containers and such. I don't want them to automatically update without me telling it to, but would like to be able to "follow" or be notified when services that I use get updated. Any recommendations? I figured there had to be something out there that is already doing this.
I use Watchtower to let me know when a service need to be udpates. Here is the docker-compose for my setup: code.dbt3ch.com/lom5twu1 This is recent a video I made on how to set up Gotify: ruclips.net/video/mIVHxFrFKqQ/видео.html
@12:35 You're creating a SSH connection but just using basic user/password authentication. If you're looking to use private/public key authentication, you'd have to have that accessible to the container, either inside the user directory or from an externally mounted volume? Or is that 'key' option going to import that?
by selecting "key file" you're able to upload a file with your key in it and even enter a password for that key if you decided to add a password to your ssh key. You should install it and take a look for yourself :)
that look like a good projet i think i'm gonna use it, accessing all my lxc SSH from one interface could be nice i'm not a fan for the "app store" thx for the video edit: by the way, why people use docker volume instant of folder ? i prefer using /opt/nginx:/data that way i know i can find the file in Disk easy, but using the docker volume is "not" simple to accessx
There are a lot of containers that don't require access to the volume so there's no need to use a path since there's no need to mount one. Also, docker volumes are sometimes easier for permissions, depending on the setup.
You're not the first person to ask this, but I'm not sure. Might be worth deploying to see what happens. If it doesn't deploy, put up a feature request on the github :)
I'm looking for something to handle lots of servers. I mean we in our organization have lots of servers and when someone joins to our team, it has a flow to give him access to servers but when he leaves, we have to get all accesses and this is horrible. Currently we use ssh keys authorization but I was wondering if there is any solution that makes it easier? My plan is to write an ansible script but any other ideas are appreciated. Plus servers handling can contain checking other stuff like package management or locales and etc...
Manually managing server access with Ansible is not scalable enough, I highly recommend FreeIPA, it is like Active Directory but for Linux, you can give specific groups access to specific resources, and disable it by just disabling the user account. It also provides ldap and kerberos for your other services, this is the standard tool for companies that heavily utilize Linux servers, at first it may look a bit difficult but it gets easy quite quickly.
You can watch the video to learn more. Or you can visit the resources linked in the description to learn more. Or you can deploy it for yourself and make that decision.
Seems not ready. I asked the developer if they intend on continuing bug fixes and they said yes, so I'm hoping to hop on the train in maybe like 6 months
Yeah. It's in ACTIVE development.... I said that it was in early development multiple times in the video and that it wasn't ready for production. Also showed where it said that on the website more than once. Also said that I was showing this to get people excited about it so they could keep an eye out for it. I hope you'll give it a chance when it's further along.

Good god they are working fast
XCP-NG hopefully on roadmap
trying to add mine but its not working. should just be ip address, username and password. Right?
@@DanDease yeah, but you need to inlcude the proxmox realm as part of the username. so like "root@pam" or whatever your "username@realm" is
@@DBTechYT that's what I was missing. Thank you! Working as expected now.

I appreciate that! If you've ever got requests, let me know in the comments or via email :)
Thanks for the tip on Nexteem. Will definitely be keeping an eye on this one.
I hope you like it!
Love that 2FA is built in from the start. These are some great videos David!
That was a big stand out point for me, too!
Hey man, this came at the perfect time! Thank you. Glad to see you doing these!
Glad you like them!
Love the videos, keep up the great content.
Appreciate it!
Have been tinkering with this, love that 2fa is in it from the start and that it has key with passphrase support
I'm really excited to see where the project goes!! They've already started adding Proxmox support to it! :)
Looks great! Like the simplified interface. Snippets will be a great addition. Use them a ton in Terminus. Looking forward!
glad you like it! :)
This looks pretty good, will keep an eye out for the release video!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
thanks for the demo and info, have a great day
You are the man! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
It really looks promising!
Agreed!! Thanks for watching!!
Interesting server management tool. Thanks for the demo!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
It works great, thanks for the video. Hope they will develop this further.
Such a great tool and I can't wait to see where it goes!
You and me both!
That´s really cool! Thanks a lot for showing this app.
Glad you like it!

That's great! and the dev is always working on new stuff for it! :)

Hope you enjoy! I'm loving the direction Nexterm is taking!!
great potential here thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Looks nice! 🎉
background screen looks good... not problem viewing on today's video...
Great video!
Thanks!
Ha, I think your video broke his site. I can't get it to come up now. I will try again tomorrow. Great video!
Oh no! I hope that gets solved soon!! Such a cool project in the works! I really want to see it succeed!! :)
Back to portainer, no more dockge? This looks incredible!! Holy cow this was exactly what I was looking for to replace guacamole.
So... with Dockge.... it's a 2 part thing. The first part is that Portainer is my go-to out of habit. The second part is that the official release of Dockge hasn't been updated in 7 months.
hub.docker.com/r/louislam/dockge
github.com/louislam/dockge
So, yeah... that's why I'm using Portainer over Dockge at the moment.
Ah that makes sense. Just love the clean interface of dockge it would fit right in with nexterm very similar. Hopefully others take up the task to maintain dockge too.
Yeah. Lots of people are doing their own thing with Dockge as you can see here: hub.docker.com/search?q=dockge
This kind of reminds me of Microsofts SysInternal RDP Connection Manager but with more features such as SSH and VNC.
If you see the source code, Nexterm is built on top of guacamole daemon.. so yeah, its a good stuff
That's good info! Thanks for sharing :)
Awesome stuff. I hope someday there will be an Active directory integration, it will be very usefull
Definitely add that to the feature request section of the Github! :)
please copy and paste if is posible, i can't work on a system that can't do that.
Go put it as a feature request on the Github repository
Ditto. Needs copy and paste. Until then...I'm still on Guacamole.
This is just an extra layer on top of guacamole I don't really see the point of it
Looks Promising! I got a question, what is your thoughts on Cosmos Server? Have you tried it? BTW great content , keep up!
I think setups like Cosmos, CasaOS, etc. are good to get familiar with certain aspects of self-hosting, but I like to set things up my own way, so, while I used them for a while for their convenience, I wanted something more (and less at the same time) so I quit using setups like that.

Guacamole didn't (maybe still doesn't) support ARM (only Intel) so i couldn't use the docker image on my Pi4. Does this support ARM ?

I use xrdp on Linux VMs, wondering if this will work?
No idea.

People have mentioned "Teleport" and "Xtreme" in the comments as possible alternatives

@@DBTechYT I will check them. Thanks.
Warp gate is another option for ssh
@@Nasticator seems nice. Thanks.
This seems to be basically a competitor to teleport but not yet prod ready?
I don't think this is trying to compete. I think it's trying to be a well thought out, easy to install, easy to use way to manage multiple setups :)
That icon looks like a left menu slider (slide in/out)
Agreed. I'm curious to see what comes of it :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
Is it like Xtreme?

Support for raspberry pi 4b 8gb?
I dunno. Try it. If it doesn't work, it won't hurt anything on your system.
The ui reminds me directus
I could see that. maybe they use the same base framework?
@DB Tech I think his name is pronounced muh TIE us
You're probably right. I'm just really bad at names! :)
i think it’s pronounced mah-thigh-us phonetically
You're probably right. I'm just really bad at names! :)
