Local LLM on Proxmox
Has anyone managed to achieve this successfully for daily work? My specs: Aoostar WTR Max 8845 - CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS (8-core, 16-thread, up to 5.1 GHz) - GPU: Integrated GPU: AMD Radeon 780M (RDNA 3, up to 2700MHz) - RAM2x 64Gb DDR5-5600 SODIMM slots (128GB) There are many opinions on the Internet about recommended hardware like a dedicated GPU but I just want to start with the iGPU first then scale up once I find the quality acceptable.

@Josh San ROCm support for the 780M on Linux is unofficial, so you'll have to rely on your CPU and RAM. Give your LXC plenty of cores and RAM, and make sure to reserve enough for Proxmox itself. Ollama is a option; just create an Ubuntu LXC and install Ollama, along with a Docker container for open Webui access.For a start this is a good start. You will soon attach a gpu with enough vram is my guess (By the way I have the same system running here with Proxmox)

@Josh San 2/3 of all the ram and cpu and leave the rest for proxmox

NetScanXi v9r4 (Multi-Tenant)
** FREE Community Tier available NOW ** Meet NetScan Xi v8r9 — your network has secrets. This finds them. ** FREE Community Tier available NOW ** to home lab enthusiasts. I hope you can then assist me in some spreading the words to potential enterprise users/adopters. You can download the zipped file set by messaging me, includes admin, user, deployment and training guides. Please test and provide feedback and ideas for future releases. Own use only, do not distribute, copy or amend code Download Link Here to access from my Google drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LY6TWdodUKhKRMmz8fMEfoW8EoYG6jHh/view?usp=drivesdk As this site is not for self promotion, please contact me via LinkedIn for any commercial based enquiries. https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-hancox-077966298/ Every time a new container is spun up, a remote device connects, or a service setup defaults to cleartext authentication, a new blind spot opens. Traditional scanners love to scream about problems, but they bury you under a mountain of raw noise. They tell you what is broken, but rarely where to start or how it impacts your compliance audits. That’s why I engineered NetScan Xi v8—the self-hosted or cloud-based, lightweight network visibility engine that pairs deep infrastructure discovery with instant tactical triage. Reachable straight from a centralised dashboard, version 6 introduces a powerhouse feature suite designed to help IT teams and security professionals move from chaotic firefighting to structured defense: - Defensive Credential-Exposure Auditing: Safely flags risky, unencrypted, or cleartext authentication (like exposed FTP, RDP, or Redis) using non-intrusive, detection-only scripts—zero destructive brute-forcing involved. - Enhanced Software & Application Inventory: Automatically builds a comprehensive, filterable per-host inventory tracking product versions, services, ports, and CPEs across all assets.

@Richard Hancox compare to openvas lightweight and strong focus on Multi-Tenancy I see (pdf)

@Richard Hancox Today I have tested NetscanXI.Thank you for that!.You asked me for feedback. What I noticed is that the scanner only checks the version number: Scanner detects OpenSSH 10.0p2 running on port 22. According to the official, general OpenSSH database, the mentioned CVEs (like CVE-2026-35386) are only resolved in version 10.3. Because of this, your scanner immediately concludes that 10.0p2 is lower than 10.3, meaning the system must be vulnerable. Debian uses backporting: In my experience, the Debian (and Proxmox) security team rarely upgrades the main version number of software within a stable release. Instead, they take the specific code fix (the patch) from the newer version and apply it directly to the current stable version. My exact version is secure: I can see from your scanner that I a run version 10.0p2 Debian 7+deb13u4. This specific +deb13u4 addition proves to me that Debian has manually added the updates and patches for these CVEs to your stable OpenSSH package. Furthermore, I must say that it is very comprehensive, especially during a deep scan, and it is nice that you can also adjust the device type; it has certainly given me good insight into my home lab (and that it can be considered safe according to the scanner). The fact is with security that we are always playing catch-up, and band-aids will always need to be applied.👊

What are your hidden home lab dependencies?

My depencies are staying hydrated, get enough food and sleep😁Without these three, there is no homelab😁😁(dns,authentik,cloudflare,ntp) But I agree with you, you don't think about most things anymore, it has become second nature. But right now, my homelab doesn't compare to yours at all in terms of scale.
