FIrst of all I want to thank the community. If you have written something about Hass.io configuration, its use with Docker, or Ubuntu, or so many other issues THANKS!.
As Windows quasi-technical guy I was able to get a brand new NUC, running Hass.io in a Docker container on Ubuntu server 16.04. I still remember trying to get HA running on my Pi the first time.
My goal for this project was to migrate away from Pi with Hass.io to a platform that has all the benefits of Hass.io but with the ability to incorporate some of my own python/other stuff. This seemed like the best of both worlds.
So if anyone has any wisdom/suggestions as to how to work with this setup going forward and avoid some pitfalls I would appreciate it.
I was initially worried about using the Hass.io Samba component as I thought I was sharing the container’s config when I wanted to be editing the config on the NUC that gets put into the container (for persistence reasons). My preliminary guess is the samba-addon container that gets created does this automatically.
I had my pynx584 server running on another old PC I wanted to migrate away and I am looking to implement CallerID but couldn’t get the modem visible in Hass.io on the Pi.
Its too often the people who help (You!) aren’t appreciated.
I’ll stop wasting bandwidth now.
