With Apple phasing out AFP in macOS 27 and Time Capsules officially reaching end-of-life, it's time to move network backups to proper SMB. If you run a FreeBSD server, you can build a fast, rock-solid, and secure Time Machine target powered by ZFS and Samba - neatly isolated inside a FreeBSD jail using Bastille. https://it-notes.dragas.net/2026/01/28/time-machine-freebsd-jail/ Keep your macOS backups running smoothly via SMBv3 (with full vfs_fruit support) and full dataset quota control on ZFS! #FreeBSD #macOS #TimeMachine #ZFS #BastilleBSD #Samba #SysAdmin #Backup #OwnYourData #SelfHosted #BSD #RunBSD #OwnYourData

New on the blog: Hosting DokuWiki on FreeBSD with Bastille, nginx, and Caddy. A deliberately small, database-free wiki: one application jail, central Caddy ingress, PHP-FPM over a Unix socket, and explicit nginx rules protecting DokuWiki’s private data. The interesting part isn’t getting a page to render. It’s drawing clean security and backup boundaries. https://blog.hofstede.it/hosting-dokuwiki-on-freebsd-with-bastille-nginx-and-caddy/ #FreeBSD #DokuWiki #BastilleBSD #SelfHosting #Caddy
