W3RDW Blog - First Post This post is copied from a separate site where I plan to document content related to one of my hobbies, HAM radio. This post is the first post I shared on my other site, https://w3rdw.radio. In the future, I plan to only post HAM radio content on the W3RDW site. You can find a link in the top right corner of my WhiteMatterTech site. Setting Up an ADS-B Flight Tracker with a Cheap Antenna and Docker on Ubuntu In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through the process of setting up an ADS-B flight tracker using a cheap antenna and Docker on Ubuntu. ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast) is a surveillance technology that allows aircraft to determine their position via satellite navigation and periodically broadcast it. By setting up your own ADS-B receiver, you can track flights in your area and contribute to the global flight tracking network. ...

Overview In this post, I will detail how I run my Matrix Server with Docker-Compose, how I use my Matrix Server as an encrypted notifications hub, and how I federate my Matrix Server over a Cloudflare tunnel (using Cloudflare’s Zero Trust interface). Short Cybersecurity Note Matrix Servers can be a part of your cybersecurity stack in your homelab or business. The component pertinent to cybersecurity related to Matrix Servers is encryption. If you’re pursuing a CISSP, you will want to be highly familiar with encryption and the process by which it is achieved. ...

Introduction For this tutorial, I will show you how to run a Dockerized version of MacOS on Unraid. The project we will use is sickcodes/Docker-OSX, which is intended for conducting MacOS security research in containerized environments on Linux and Windows. For this tutorial, I will show you how to use Unraid’s Docker-Compose functionality to manage the container. We will also be building a special VNC-compatible image, which is required for Unraid. If you are not using Unraid, building the default image will likely work better for you. ...

Introduction This post will cover how to set up a Docker container of Cloudflared on your internal network to provide a private tunnel from Cloudflare to your internal resources. After setting up the Cloudflared tunnels, you will no longer need to expose ports 80 and 443. This post assumes you currently have a vibrant and functioning internal network with a reverse proxy (in my case, Nginx Proxy Manager) already configured. Additionally, this post assumes you have a Cloudflare account with the ability to modify DNS records for your domain(s). ...

Introduction In this previous post, I showed how to connect to a Unifi router with HTTPS, effectively ridding you of the tedious words, “Your connection is not private.” However, the method shown in that post directs your connection to an external DNS server (e.g., CloudFlare) in order to resolve your Unifi router. This adds some latency by requiring your traffic to flow out and in rather than staying local. Additionally, it requires opening some ports externally. While this is not necessarily bad, it certainly increases the risks and attack surface of your network. ...
