Couldn’t help myself and converted another VM to #NixOS 😅
This one used to be an OpenMediaVault samba appliance that later grew in scope and now runs a systemd service or two.
Converted it to NixOS before things escalate. The initial setup and samba config was done in about 30 minutes. The services took longer.
This was a good move as it made setting up vsftpd (for receiving scans over LAN from a network scanner) for testing purposes quite easy :)
Also sops-nix is cool (will blog about it!)
