Achievement unlocked: SSO for the hypervisor! ๐
My Proxmox VE is now officially using Keycloak OIDC for authentication, and the setup is fantastic:
- Centralized Users: Managed alongside my other apps (Keycloak using my LDAP as the backend).
- Hardware MFA: Locked down with a FIDO2 stick from @nitrokey
- Unified Control: Centralized policies, logging, and RBAC across the board.
Another great improvement for my HomeLab/SelfHosting setup.

One of the most useful Red Hat products I use daily is also one of the least-known: the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal (RHOKP).
It is basically a self-hosted, locally searchable mirror of docs.redhat.com + the Red Hat Knowledgebase in a single container image.
Perfect for:
- air-gapped environments
- customer networks with painful proxies
- trains, planes, and terrible WiFi
- anyone who wants docs that still work offline
I wrote up how it works, why I think it matters, and how to run it locally with Podman:

New post: FreeBSD resource monitoring and accounting.
A practical tour of the base-system toolkit for figuring out *what is actually using my server*: top, vmstat, systat, gstat, netstat/sockstat, procstat, pfctl, and per-jail attribution with kern.racct and rctl.
No ports, no agents. Just FreeBSD.
