A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

One is the route from my Proxmox (vimes) server to my NAS, (colon) going via my Router (pessimal) (as it should be) Second one is my NAS going to Proxmox directly. However I didn't set any static routes and this is causing issues as the Router Firewalls those Asymmetric Connections. This is happening since I upgraded Proxmox... I am not the best at network stuff, so if someone has some pointers I'd be most grateful.

I'm a moron and had a wrong subnet mask.

You got it perfectly right! It was the subnetting... Thanks!

That whole "shortest path" has caught me out before (tho in a different way)!
And firewall logs of "state violation" aren't always helpful when that's pretty much the default log message

[–] genuineparts@infosec.pub 1 points 6 months ago

Absolutely. But I at least realized it had to be asymmetric routing... because if I didn't I would have been even more puzzled. Because even setting firewall rules wouldn't fix it then. I'm glad there are people here that understand that sometimes we brain fart and they give you a great pointer! Like the second I saw netmask I knew what was wrong and facepalmed.
