Great video MRP. Thank you for sharing Kasm with your audience. Sorry for the issue with the extension not always working, we will get someone to look at that right away. Another note about the /dev/fuse issue. This may be a consequence of running in a LXC vs VM. Fuse by the rclone plugin that we leverage to allow users to map in their cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, Netxcloud etc). So its possible this feature may not work in this setup. Thanks again 👍

Regardless to minor issue, KASM Workspaces are just straight form the future. Everyone needs to try it. Thank You KASM Team!

[@wilsmith7173]

thank you, I have KASM setup on my UnRaid box using a Ubuntu VM. So today I learnt that I needed to upgrade my system..done. And I learnt about the server function and about the KASM extension, so a big thanks!

4:40 Tagging to easy show the IP. Brilliant!

[@VitorHugo-hd8bw]

I never thought about it. I just reserved the IPs from .100 to .250 and I just assign them manually to match the container (or VM) number.

[@techdad6135]

Ive heard of Kasm but didnt know I needed it until now haha.

[@tashkar]

Great, I've been waiting for something like this for ages! BTW: great video! :)

[@fernandavln38]

Excellent demo! Thank you

[@toolbelt]

Kasm kind of blows my mind

[@MRPtech]

Yeah. On first day when i got it running ... i was like i just invented fire.

[@diegofelipe2119]

Awesome, Kasm is very cool. Thanks!

[@goodcitizen4587]

Very cool. It's like a virtual desktop. I've been looking for that.

[@BillCClinton]

Ok, my friend! This is pretty darn slick! I have it installed and the plugin working. Wondering if there is a way have a pick list of workspaces when I choose to open a link via the extension. In other words, ask me each time I select open in kasm to ask me what to open it with?

[@davidbottger5495]

You are creating such amazing videos! I stumbled across your channel while setting up my homelab for the second time and absolutely love your work. I have one question though: When should I use Proxmox containers as opposed to Docker containers inside the Docker-Ubuntu VM? I want to keep my setup simple and was wondering why to use the proxmox containers at all. Is there a good reason to do so or maybe a rule I can follow to decide what to use for different containers? I am looking forward to hearing from you, David

[@MRPtech]

Thank you for your comment. How i choose what runs where. Depends on a service i want to self-host and is it critical for me to make sure that it is always ONLINE. For example : Cloudflare tunnel, pihole and tailscale runs inside VM. Reason? - these 3 things MUST be online all the time otherwise my home network falls apart and thinking ahead i have them inside VM because when i moved to Proxmox Cluster, VM migration happens "Online" where LXC containers migrated in "offline" mode. Online mode means that VM still functioning during migration where Offline mode shuts down LXC container, migrates and start back up again. These 15 - 20 sec while LXC would be offline will cause me trouble which might take 20 - 30 min to correct. If you planning to have a bunch of docker containers and they are critical for you, i suggest to go VM and when you go Cluster down the line you won't need to move all from LXC to VM Witch LXC containers to can increase HDD size while LXC is running. with VM you need to shutdown and start back up again to take effect. I am using LXC containers more for testing purpose. Set everything up and at the end check how much space that service will use, then create VM with same storage + couple extra GB just to be safe and all service gets moves to VM for Proxmox HA. Some services already have TurnKey LXC template. For example JellyFin. IF i have JellyFin LXC template with everything that it needs, no need for me to mess around with Docker to have same service going and i won't be mad if jellyfin will go offline for 30 - 45sec during HA migration. I hope this will help you....

[@davidbottger5495]

Thank you very much for the extensive answer. You did help me a lot.

[@Asbasnowe]

can you show how to mount persistent storage in kasm?

[@BACKSPIN9ball]

I get a docker-compose error when I try to do this and yet it is installed and running the later version

[@chj915]

what is the use case here for using Kasm Workspaces?

[@MRPtech]

I am using to check all sorts of links i receive to my YT Email. Bunch of "company" sending me links to their products which turns out to be hidden scripts with malware. For work i am using it to check websites developed by my team. As i am checking same website multiple times, browser keeps saving pages to cache which then hides things that are done. Instead of clearing cache on my mains browser i just spin chrome/edge/brave browsers in KASM. Simple and easy.
