Netmaker community/ forums #923

Hi everyone,

First off, since this is my first post/issue in this community; I've been following development roughly since v0.5.11, around the time I started my homelab & realized I didn't know that much about networking. I think you've made an incredible piece of software/service, accessible for motivated beginners but still in depth enough for more experienced users. The amount of documentation and the guides from @afeiszli are a blessing. Finally managed to setup a DO server node without too many issues thanks to your long in depth video about netmaker from last month.

So on to my question; Are there any official forums for netmaker (or planned)? I still have unanswered questions after scouring through the docs, the issues pages, reddit and other random forums and I don't feel like they're worthy to issue an issue since they aren't really. I'm also asking it because there are so many possibilities,use-cases and combinations of setups for netmaker so it would nice to see what others do with it, I already saw some layouts in the issues of which I hadn't even thought about

Also, if a node has an error/warning status under nodes/graphs; where would I be able to see that error? It's solved by pulling the latest netclient configuration on the troubled node but I couldn't find any reference to it in the UI itself nor in the docs.

Anyhow, excellent work! Can't wait till I'm able to contribute too.

edit: typo's and added question about node status

Join the netmaker discord https://discord.gg/4h5nvB3S

The node warning/error status indicated that the node has not checked in with the netmaker server in either the last 5 minutes(warning) or 30 minutes (error).

Thanks for your reply, I dislike the chaotic nature of Discord so I'll be waiting for something a bit more structured and based on posts instead of chats.

How did you find out about the meaning of the status?

Closing this for now, as the official forum is Discord, and there are not currently any plans to change this
