NAS setup using plebian #26

hey, I made an installation guide to a NAS / home server to self-host docker container using plebian as a base OS. I believe it might be of interest to the peoples who download your image.

Hi,

I'd be happy to link this in a "further reading" section of RUNNING.md, but I found a few issues:

  1. static IP should be set through NetworkManager, not interfaces. We use NetworkManager by default as it is a lot more flexible with binding to interfaces and doesn't block bootup if no cable is plugged in. You can use nmcli for setting up a static IP, or disable NetworkManager before switching back to Debian interfaces.
  2. Manual DNS servers shouldn't be set in resolv.conf but through systemd-resolved, which is the used DNS resolver
  3. Consider whether you even need a static IP. Plebian brings up multicast DNS by default, you can just ssh into the hostname of the board with .local appended, assuming your system is able to resolve mDNS.

I've added the article to a "Further Reading" section of "RUNNING.md", thanks for taking the time writing it!
