Hello everyone, I’m trying to use kopia server installed on docker on an unraid server. Could someone tell me a tutorial or a good guide to follow for configuration, please? I’m missing out a lot… ---

Hi, what do you need? I am running a repository server on docker on my synology. Here is my docker-compose: ```auto version: '3.7' services: kopia: user: ${UID}:${GID} image: kopia/kopia:latest hostname: diskstation container_name: kopia-server restart: unless-stopped networks: - kopia ports: - 8010:51515 cap_add: - SYS_ADMIN security_opt: - apparmor:unconfined devices: - /dev/fuse:/dev/fuse:rwm command: - server - start - --disable-csrf-token-checks - --enable-actions - --tls-cert-file=/certs/fullchain.pem - --tls-key-file=/certs/privkey.pem - --address=0.0.0.0:51515 - --server-username=${SERVER_USR} - --server-password=${SERVER_PWD} - --server-control-username=${SERVER_CTRL_USER} - --server-control-password=${SERVER_CTRL_PWD} environment: KOPIA_PASSWORD: ${REPOSITORY_PWD} TZ: Europe/Berlin USER: "nas" volumes: # Mount local folders needed by kopia - /volume1/docker/kopia-server/config:/app/config - /volume1/docker/kopia-server/cache:/app/cache - /volume1/docker/kopia-server/logs:/app/logs # Mount local folders to backup - /volume1/media:/nas_media:ro - /volume1/homes:/nas_homes:ro - /volume1/photo:/nas_photo:ro - /volume1/video:/nas_video:ro # Mount backup location - /volume1/backups/kopia-repo:/app/backup # Mount path for restoring snaphots - /volume1/backups/restore:/tmp # Mount paths for certificates - /usr/syno/etc/certificate/_archive/XiNQp0/fullchain.pem:/certs/fullchain.pem:ro - /usr/syno/etc/certificate/_archive/XiNQp0/privkey.pem:/certs/privkey.pem:ro networks: kopia: name: kopia ``` You then need to create the users on the repository server. The will get a username and a password. After that you can connect to the repository server. You may have to take a look at here: [Repository Server | Kopia](https://kopia.io/docs/repository-server/#:~:text=Repository%20Server%20allows%20an%20instance%20of%20kopia%20to,server%20without%20any%20knowledge%20of%20repository%20storage%20credentials.) ---

Many thanks, it’s a good point of start. Do you use self-generated certificates? ---

Hi, nope. This is a letsencrypt certificate, that is mounted. Cheers, ---

How do you handle the Letsencrypt rotation - given that the client refuses to connect, unless it has the SHA-Fingerprint of the Key in question when connecting to the repository from remote? ---

Currently, I re-generate the hash and restart the docker when it is necessary. Have not come up with a more automated solution yet. Cheers, ---
