If your CLN takes 6 minutes to startup, make sure you don't have a 14 GB gossip store ๐ซ ๐ตโ๐ซ
You can now add all of your nostr friends that are using Boardwalk, then send them some cash that will show up right in their notifications

And a partly functioning dlc wallet up next ;)
1. pretty sure you can configure how often you have to re authenticate. If you are not authenticated then, for example, when you try to use tailscale to ssh into a remote machine you are given a link in your terminal that you must visit (login.tailscale.com), then you perform whatever authentication like user/pass, google, or github (whatever you chose to set up), and now your terminal session is authenticated and you can proceed with accessing the remote machine. As far as I can tell using the tailscale VPN on top of your regular VPN does not work, so you must turn you VPN off before authenticating with tailscale
2. For the purpose of public internet traffic I think they do pretty much the same thing, just I control the proxy server and holesail is free. I can easily move the proxy server wherever, just using a VPS so I don't have to mess with my home firewall config.
However, I can just share with you a holesail connection string, and if you are running holesail you can peer directly with me and access whatever port I am sharing
this may be my problem... from the docs: "Note: If you did not set a custom connection string, stopping and restarting a session will reset it's connection string."
Do you have any content around how you manage your holesail connections?
Just started experimenting with this myself. When you say "holesail client runs within a docker container" is that on the VPS?
I'm trying to make something where I can assign domain names to my self-hosted services and connect to a VPS with holesail. I got a basic implementation working, but do you have any code to share related to your deployment?
My goal is to just run an nginx server on a VPS, then connect to any number of holesail servers and assign each a domain
I've recently started experimenting with holesail and setup a forward proxy to expose self-hosted holesail services to the broader internet.
Have you experienced issues when you stop the holesail server then try to restart it? I'm using holesail-manager, and when I stop the server then restart, I am unable to connect from the client until I make a new server session. Seems like it creates a new connection string...
Where is the best place to stay up to date on development?
Holesail.io is next level
I've always wanted to self-host, but for most pieces of software this is no simple task. A while ago I attempted to set up sovereign-stack.org by nostr:npub1j4z7qht2yntl6tw7f48cj92dtm7nfsa8jnjklshj5yvug42nvykqxlwuxp (which I still think is the ideal solution), but the necessary network configurations are over my head.
I just set up a test mint running on hardware I own! You can use it at https://testnut.brownduff.rocks (no promises on how long it will be up).
For this setup, I am still relying on AWS to connect me to the broader internet, but that's it. I am running nginx on a free AWS instance with 1 GB memory and 1 CPU, then connecting to my home server via holesail. I outline the basics here: https://gist.github.com/gudnuf/d3f797a7f69a819c12ae7765e288cf8b
My next steps are to make the AWS deployment more automated and be able to handle any number of domains/holesail connections.
I've been trying to figure out how to self-host for a long time and be able to expose things like a mint or a blog without using tor or VPNs. Holesail knocks everything else out of the park in terms of complexity and ability to just make it work.
have you used holesail.io?
We just released Boardwalk v0.3.0 which makes sending eCash even more fun than it already is!
Another exciting feature in this release is shareable links for locked eCash are MUCH shorter making it easier to send money on messaging platforms that cut off long links.

Nostrudel PWA is my new daily driver because I can easily enable zaps with NWC. What other options are there for NWC zaps on ios?

attempting to build a Cashu wallet that uses nip88 to coordinate locking eCash into a DLC
Adding a bolt12 offer to your profile is the easy part, but then there needs to be ways of paying that offer. That project was basically all the ways i could think of using cln to pay an offer (REST, nostr wallet connect, and cashu mint). But it all used cln under the hood, so not very easy for zapping
