Raspberry Pi home server

From munkjensen.net/wiki

About this page.

This page contains explanation of the things i did to make different projects live together on a single Raspberri Pi.

https://www.pestmeester.nl/ is the base inspiration for my Home Server.
https://github.com/pi-hole/ provides super easy installation of an AdBlocking Domain Name Server functionality.
https://github.com/pivpn/ provides super easy installation and administration of OpenVPN Server funnctionality.

Hardware

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, 1GB Ram
4 Gb MicroSD card.
USB Harddrive, 500 Gb SSHD
Raspberry Pi Camera Board v2.

Basic installation

Download and write Raspian Lite to the MicroSD card

Raspi-config

Go thrugh all the menu points of the Rapsberry Pi SOftware Configuration Tool, and change the basic configuration to fit the needs of this Home Server.

Hardening + SSH

Follow the guide: Hardened SSH daemon using the 'sudo' command when root powah is required.

Add USB HD

I configured /dev/sdb1 to be mounted on /data, not the strange UUID..

Nginx, PHP7, MySQL

First the 'easy' stuff. Answer all install questions wisely!

sudo apt-get install nginx php-apc mysql-server

Then, because PHP 7 is not available in jessie repo I get it from the stretch repo:

# Add the GPG keys needed to use the stretch repository
sudo gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key  8B48AD6246925553      
sudo gpg -a --export 8B48AD6246925553 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 7638D0442B90D010      
sudo gpg -a --export 7638D0442B90D010 | sudo apt-key add -
# Add the stretch repo as a source for apt
sudo echo "deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-stretch.list
# Update the local apt index so the stretch repo is present
sudo apt-get -y update
# Install the needed PHP7 packages
sudo apt-get -y install -y php7.0-fpm php7.0-curl php7.0-gd php7.0-cli php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-mysql -t stretch
# Remove the stretcg repo as a source
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-stretch.list
# Lastly I update the local apt source lists so stretch repo is removed.
sudo apt-get -y update

Then continue the pestmeester guide

LetsEncrypt

OwnCloud

PiHole DNS

This must be installed using the option to NOT install the normally included webinterface, because that will require lighttpd, wich is not compatible with OwnCloud ;-)
All PiHole administration must consequentially be done using terminal commands.
