Don’t sleep on the video walk through, it can be truly invaluable.

To be honest, would a spreadsheet not be a good use for this? There are FOSS asset trackers, but a simple .ods with a pictures column might serve you well. Are there additional features/conveniences you are looking for?

If you have any kind of firewall on your network, you might make sure it’s not blocking that port with a rule. Here’s a couple screenshots from my setup in case that helps.

The config in NPM

The config in HA’s configuration.yaml

Try adding just the NPM IP and HA IP first, then add the docker internal network as well if you still have issues.

ABSOLUTELY.

Never use one source for critical data! One backup is no backups! No backups is playing with the entropic forces of the universe!

1. Have at least three copies of your data - primary, backup, and offsite backup.
2. Store the copies on at least two different media types.
3. Keep at least one of those copies offsite - what if your house or datacenter burned down?

If you don’t care about recovering your photos, by all means use an actively changing project as your sole means of data storage!

And if the power in your area sucks, the power conditioning even a good small UPS provides is invaluable.

The multifactor can’t be understated as part of your security stance! I turn it on and enforce it on my home network for any service I host that supports it. And like mentioned elsewhere, only 80 and 443 are opened and they go straight through a proxy.
