Hey everyone,

I'm struggling at this, and hence looking at your collective wisdom.

We are all selfhosting here (at least, willing to), so we know that it takes some time and skills.

But have you envisionned what your familly will do if the worst happen ? (e.g. you die in an accident)

Can someone take over, or all the setup will slowly fall appart and data be lost?

In my case, no one will be able to follow up. So all important documents and photos are mapped through nfs to all PC at home, so familly will still be able to access.

They know that everything important is stored on a NAS (hiwever, not sure they can identify and find it).

Same for all the passwords, a keepass file that is setup to be access easily and from all PCs. I have the plan to document in there an emergency way for them to secure the data.

And you, how do you manage that?

My wife has a laminated card which has the instructions to my KeePass vault, and an explanation of how the backup drives are encrypted.

Once the family photos are safe and she can login to all my accounts to finalize them, the server can be replaced with a WRT54G for all I care. Continuity will be impossible. Even a qualified sysadmin would probably struggle with it.

I like that idea, totally non-nerds friendly.

Will look into that, thanks :)
