Ultimate FreeNAS 11.3 iocage Setup

TrueNAS

I will be moving from FreeNAS jails to ubuntu with docker, docker compose, and portainer. FreeNAS support and updates are lacking. There are many advantages to making the switch and with ZFS on linux I think FreeNAS may be a thing of the past. Stay tuned for a new guide of my latest setup. Check out my other gists for progress on the switch. https://gist.github.com/mow4cash/626275e095f7f90898944a85d66b3be6

I recently began using VOIP.ms. It has been very stable and a good price compared to other alternatives. I use it with free 3CX PBX and it's hard to beat the combo of these two. For every friend you refer, you both receive $10 in VoIP.ms credits! The more referrals you make, the more credits you earn! All the way up to $25 per referral.
