This is an HTPC option for a private network, we will not have any direct external access, the remote access will be done by [TailScale installed on an EdgeRouter-X](https://github.com/jamesog/tailscale-edgeos).  
You can install [TailScale via Docker](https://hub.docker.com/r/tailscale/tailscale) as well.

The only open port will be from Plex, **32400** to keep remote access easier for apps and TVs.

Alternatives:

- Plex Media Server to Jellyfin: I have a lifetime license for Plex, and I still think it’s the best and most complete solution, if you want to install both it won’t be difficult to adjust it in Docker.
- qBittorrent to Deluge, Transmission, rTorrent: qBittorrent has the largest number of options with no need for addons, its configuration is fast and has a good performance.

## Debian 12+

Debian is a safe choice, everything should work on versions 10 and 11, but Kernel upgrade from version 12 Bookworm works better with Intel Quick Sync for HW Transcode on Plex, Jellyfin or Emby.

`sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config`

```
PermitRootLogin yes
```

Reboot and reconnect with root user

```
deluser debian
rm -rf /home/debian

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade -y; apt-get autoremove; apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg2 software-properties-common htop ncdu nano net-tools zip fdisk sl -y

timedatectl set-timezone **Etc/UTC**
```

[List of tz database time zones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones)

### Swap

```
fallocate -l 1G /swapfile
chmod 600 /swapfile
mkswap /swapfile
swapon /swapfile
```

`echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | tee -a /etc/fstab`

```
sysctl vm.swappiness=10
sysctl vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50
```

```
echo 'vm.swappiness=10' | tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
echo 'vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50' | tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
```

## Install Docker:

```auto
install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg
chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg

echo "deb [arch="$(dpkg --print-architecture)" signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian "$(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME")" stable" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null

apt-get update; apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin -y

```

`systemctl status docker`

You should see a green status. 😉

## Mount disks

If you’re starting now, you probably have a disk with a large amount of space, after formatting this process is easier to mount.

Each disk has its own _UUID_.  
You can find out the _UUID_ of your disk by running `blkid`, the result will be like this:

```
/dev/sda1: UUID="648c6531-4d62-4d3c-a0d9-074f651cdbfb" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="6e301172-01"
/dev/sda5: UUID="5e1b25a1-498b-4bce-af47-d30aa9ea31b5" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="6e301172-05"
/dev/sdb1: LABEL="HD" UUID=" **CA8261F08261E205**" TYPE="ntfs" PARTLABEL="HD" PARTUUID="deb852d4-a496-4b8c-9065-bec8d9c5d7e4"
```

If not show any addition disk, try:

```
fdisk -l | grep "Disk /"
```

The result will be like this:

```
Disk /dev/sdb: 20 GiB, 21474836480 bytes, 41943040 sectors
Disk /dev/sda: 20 GiB, 21474836480 bytes, 41943040 sectors
```

`fdisk /dev/sdb`

```
n

p

1

    
w
```

`mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sdb1`

`blkid` and get UUID

`nano /etc/fstab`

```
UUID= **UUID** /mnt/storage auto defaults 0 0
```

You also need an empty folder where it will be mounted:

```
mkdir -p /mnt/storage
```

`systemctl daemon-reload`

Run `mount -a`. If you can access your partitions and no errors appear then everything is fine.

```
mkdir -p /mnt/storage/{transcode,media/{tv-shows,movies},downloads/{radarr,sonarr,aria2}}/
```

## Install containers

### Environment

`nano .env`

```
STORAGE_DIR= **/mnt/storage** DOCKER_DIR= **/opt** TZ= **Etc/UTC** PUID= **0** PGID= **0** PLEX_CLAIM= **CLAIM\_CODE**
```

> You can obtain a claim token from [https://plex.tv/claim](https://plex.tv/claim) and input here. Keep in mind that the claim tokens expire within 4 minutes.

### Pre configuration

#### Scrutiny

```
mkdir -p /opt/scrutiny/config/
```

`nano /opt/scrutiny/config/scrutiny.yaml`

Notification “urls” look like the following. For more information about service specific configuration see shoutrrr’s [documentation](https://containrrr.dev/shoutrrr/services/overview/).

```yaml
version: 1

web:
  listen:
    port: 8081
    host: 0.0.0.0

```
