We officially announced our intention to delay VM support as part of the Q1 status update back in March. Since then, its important to note that TrueNAS pivoted their VM strategy again when they decided to drop Incus for traditional VMs and go back to their previous implementation with libvirt (as of 25.04.2). Due to all of this, we decided it would be best to restart the VM implementation in 2026 once development is finalized. I can see the confusion here, but we never promised all of these features would be delivered with the 1.0 release. Our focus on 1.0 is achieving platform stability. Furthermore, you're forgetting one pretty major feature that wasn't listed on the site: Local UI. This is the next feature we are focusing on after the Q3 release. Snapshots and Buddy Backups are still possibilities for this year, but likely would continue to carry the "beta" tag into 2026 to give more time for public testing. The Q3 update is nearly complete, which will carry some pretty big features including MULTIPLE new curated apps and folder support for Apple Time Machine/Quotas. Furthermore, we will have a new "Experimental Features" toggle that will enable users to create Encrypted folders as well as provide access to our new app templating/install scripts solution.

Do we have any expected timeline for the Q3 update? I only ask because I wanted support for TrueNAS 25.10 which carries Blackwell NVIDIA drivers but that only comes out end of October.

Looking forward to the Q3 release. Bring it on!

Is there a new roadmap or can we get a new road map? the one on the website is coming up on a year old.

I would like to see gluetun added that would be cool.

I believe integrating Home Assistant with HexOS could be a game-changer for the operating system, offering functionality that is sorely lacking in almost all other OS platforms today. A Home Assistant integration would allow users to monitor and manage their NAS more effectively. Imagine being able to track critical metrics such as system uptime, array health, disk health checks, and the overall status of your storage systems — all from within Home Assistant. Furthermore, adding control features would significantly enhance the user experience. It would be fantastic if users could automate tasks like rebooting or stopping/starting applications, VMs, or containers directly through Home Assistant. Additionally, automating disk spin-downs during off-peak hours for power savings would be a powerful and eco-friendly feature. The potential of Home Assistant integration is vast, and it's difficult to fully capture all the possibilities in a single topic. However, the core idea is simple: having such an integration, with continuous updates and new features, would be a major advantage for HexOS. While most other operating systems either lack similar functionality or offer only basic, limited capabilities, HexOS could stand out by providing a more comprehensive, user-friendly, and flexible solution.

Hi all, Just seeking clarification here - the HexOS team have said they're still targeting V1.0 for release this year. A topic on Reddit has a response from the HexOS_Official user stating Can the team clarify when VM support is coming, as that was a major selling point for HexOS. Will V1.0 be launched without a major feature? I understand that 25.04 pushed back the release of VM features, but from the how I read the Q1 update (the last time this was spoken about, in March...) I took it to be that it was being done, just at a lower priority than the App support, but would still be coming this year. If I am looking at the HexOS website, we are currently at 3/6 of the below features. Even if they launch App deployment in the next few weeks for their Q3 update, I don't see how they are able to complete VMs, Buddy Backups & Snapshots in the next 3 months, which means they can't actually be targeting a 2025 release, but we've had no official word saying the release has been pushed back. The last word on this was from March 7th:

looks good to me it has an intel nic 6 sata ports 3 m.2 ports (just double deck if there are any ports that get disabled if you try to fully populate all the ports) yeah its always hard to gauge power draw. there is too little understanding out there about it.

so your motherboard and poswer supply does not fit in your case. the jonsbo n4 supports up to matx cases and sfx power supplies. also we highly recommend not getting a motherboard with a realtek nic (network interface card) because those just cause problems. here is the skeleton of your build on pc part picker for reference. https://fi.pcpartpicker.com/list/pHnZTM I see that it costs ~630 euros let me see what i would do with a similar budget. https://fi.pcpartpicker.com/list/pzG73w i went with an intel cpu because they tend to do better if your usecase is say plex. with a fairly strong igpu for most non ai or gaming tasks. i went with a thermalright cooler since they are usually pretty good. this one has better cooling headroom than the be quiet one you had before. im not thrilled about the rgb personally so if you are able to find it without it i would get that. The motherboard i picked has an intel nic and ddr5 support. be careful if you decide to purchase the motherboard without using the pcpartpicker provided links as msi has like 5 different motherboards with the same name. Oh also this motherboard should fit in the jonsbo n4 no problem. 1 thing is that this motherboard only has 4 sata ports. the best way to add more is by adding an hba card (flashed to it mode) into the pcie slot. i would recommend any of the following, lsi 9200-8i, 9305-8i, 9400-8i Since the motherboard supports ddr5 ram, i picked the same capacity ddr5 ram for you. same case I didn't pick the cheapest power supply that fit. I personally like the seasonic brand of power supplies and this one was fully modular making it just a bit easier to cable manage in that case. this skeleton also came out to about ~630 euros. (not including storage) the motherboard only has 1 full sized m.2 and i opted to use it for the boot drive. and swapped out your ssds to sata ones instead for compatibility purposes. i know its not ideal but itll likely be imperceptible on the day to day. i didnt look into hdd pricing because its hard for me to check the pricing in your country outside of pcpartpicker but definitely check out the pricing of seagate exos drives since for some reason they end up being sold at a lower price than the ironwolf drives fairly often. i'm not sure what you mean by this but if you can clarify it for me i'm happy to answer this and any more questions you may have as well as help you further modify this list if you desire.

I'm deeply disappointed to hear this. We did have a banner on the forums for a while pointing to the Q2 update, but the post itself is still where all of our update posts have been going: the Announcements forum. In addition, there have been multiple Command Deck updates since then that have seriously improved deck.hexos.com performance and responsiveness, as well as resolved a significant networking bug. Check out the Announcements forum and specifically posts by @jerod (our CTO). FYI, I'm Jon (the CEO and Co-Founder). Clearly we're missing some simple comm relays (like the Q2 update dropping) and some of our terminology could be more clear (differing from major and minor updates, OS vs. Command Deck as well). I do apologize for that, as comms are ultimately my responsibility right now. I've told our dev team to stay out of the forums beyond reading posts and communicating with @mill3000 on relevant support tickets. No blame on them for their lack of activity here. And while I greatly appreciate your input and desire for a dev-blog, we honestly just don't have the appetite to do it right now. Writing blogs wasn't part of the job description for the dev team either. We're putting all of our effort and the capital that was entrusted to us by customers (like you) towards building the product. I'm not sure what you mean by this comment. Is there an app you're trying to bring to HexOS that you've developed? I get it. You feel strongly about the devlogs. 😮‍💨 I don't. We're not even making big investments in marketing right now (our website is still the same from after launch week). All the capital is going towards making this thing really great (including backing/funding the ZFS AnyRaid project). Maybe that changes in the future when it makes more sense to me. Right now, each on-the-clock keystroke from our dev team goes to writing code or communicating ideas internally to further the project. I provide updates as I can and when there's something important to say (such as a release dropping). Clearly you're missing some of those and I'm struggling to understand how and why. It's important that I get this sorted because if it's happening to you, I'm sure it's happening to others as well. Especially as we're now moving at a faster pace than we were in the first half of 2025 and anticipate more frequent updates moving forward. I feel this too. 🤦‍♂️ I see the purchases you made and when you made them. @mill3000 referred to you as an OG and he's not wrong. No worries, I ignored all the BS from your post....mostly ;-). I definitely recommend checking your server for the Q2 update (the Command Deck will immediately be different if you haven't noticed already) and if you haven't, apply the available OS update from the Activity card on the dashboard. We have a lot more in store for Q3. I'm working on a few blog posts now. one to catch everyone up from June, and another to talk about our upcoming plan for apps. Thanks for taking the time to let us know how you're feeling. I'm confident if you purchased based on the vision you saw from us last year, you'll be happy you did by the end of this year. If you ultimately feel sour about this and want a refund now, let me know and we'll take care of it for you.

Ahoy, did a quick look but couldn't find an answer, So do we know if HexOS will be moving to TrueNAS Fangtooth or Goldeye for the next release "Q3"? Im running a intel N355 and Electric Eel 24.10 doesn't seem to detect a few features of the processor (Onboard Graphics) and Network interfaces, I assume this is kernel related with 24.10 relating the N355 release. When I force upgrade TrueNas to Fangtooth 25.04 the onboard graphics start working but it breaks the HexOS interface.

Having AMP (https://cubecoders.com/AMP) supported would allow users to get game servers up and running super fast and easy! I know my primary use cases for hexos is media streaming, image backups, and gaming servers. The first two are already covered with plex and immich. Just need a game server app for hexos and therefore recommend AMP!

Is anyone directly associated with the HexOS app looking at the current review videos in youtube? They are auto-generated on mass from your front page and possibly other sources I can't find. It looks like you are working on a product quite different from what this forum page is describing. I think you are losing both a great advertising tool but also an opportunity to do a five to ten minute video on what is going on, upcoming releases, what third quarter actually means to the company and the like. Your last post with a little more fluff would have been perfect. Public service announcements like don't update TrueNAS beyond a certain point could be useful. I understand your knee jerk reaction to say it's too much work but I bet you could work miracles with something small like this. Maybe you could get someone from LTT to make an appearance to remind everyone why they have high hopes for the product overall. Be the way, what the heck is this video? It's your web page I think but what is this guy talking about? Someone must have gotten the scripts mixed up.

Fair point. We are planning to update the site for end of year with more content and details. I'll make sure this gets addressed. There are three types of issues that can exist for a given app: issues with the app itself (responsibility of the app developer), issues with the TrueNAS-cataloged container (responsibility of TrueNAS), and issues with the app curation itself (responsibility of HexOS). For issues with the app, if we can clearly identify the problem, we have no problem carrying the torch up to the app author to get proper visibility if required. For issues with the cataloged app in TrueNAS, we can escalate to TrueNAS directly for intervention if we can identify the root cause properly. For issues with the curation, we can quickly modify our curation using the new system to push out a fixes. We also will have a new docs site that will launch with the Q3 update explaining out the curation system works and how others can participate to help us fast-track the curation of other apps while we continue to work on core features.

To be fair to the developers, they aren't charging full price for it at the moment. The full intended price is $300 for a lifetime license. I just checked the website and it's still being sold for the beta pricing of $199.

Yeah, as mentioned in the post, I saw this. I just thought it meant instead of being early in 2025 it would be late 2025. I understand this, but your website only says "*Some features will not be immediately available upon beta release.". If you are launching the product and having people pay full price for it, you need to either update your website to remove the not available features, or update it to make it VERY clear that these are future state features and not applicable to the current state of the product. I am mostly excited for the new App Curation system, and to see how the team resolves the issues with the existing apps (Plex & Immich). I am cautiously optimistic about this update being the first time it feels like I will be using HexOS instead of TrueNAS.

Hi, i don't really know if it's possible or if it has been discussed earlier but is it possible for HexOS to display differents pcie cards information (like what card is in what slot) or direcly display the GPU informations like the usage the drivers etc a little like it is done with the cpu informations? I think it could be a great options for those who use gpu for transcoding or in VM... thank you all 😁

happy i could help

so out of the box it likely would not support both since there is only one full size pcie slot. I think there is an extra x4 pcie slot but it would like likely need some modification to allow larger devices to fit (or you need to purchase an adapter) and even then im not 100% if itll work or not. the 12600k works really well with plex specifically because of the optimizations intel made with intel quick sync. you likley don't need need a gpu.

I know that Immich is already a Curated app, but for me, it has the big downside that Users have no e2ee and as an Admin of the Server ill be able to all Files/Photos/Videos a user has uploaded to the NAS. ENTE has e2ee and allows any file uploaded to be encrypted and not be readable by the Admin of the NAS - which is a huge selling point if I want to convince my Family and Friends to finally quit buying iCloud Storage and switch to a home hosted NAS solution. I would like to hear if the Community would be interested if ENTE gets a curated installation, and if the HEXos team maybe already has a plan to add it to the list.

the standard for plex/jellyfin is onboard intel igpu because it has access to intel quicksync. as a bonus you will be saving a LOT of money over the years not paying for dgpu idle electricity costs

I just saw this @zczachor and I had a similar post myself, Maybe read some the things there, and look what suits your needs: I also linked it in the other post but this was my final build: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/b/dHBj4D One of the things to keep in mind: Intel and dedicated GPU is best if you want to use Plex on your HexOS installation. or even the on-board GPU for the intel I believe is slightly better then the on-board of AMD (I have not tested this personally, and for me an on-board AMD is enough, even as a Virtual machine).

Apologies it's been a hectic week for the team but the forum will be opened up.

i believe there is a skip button now for this.

not exactly. it depends on what chipset is powering the ethernet port. Many mobos come with realtek powered nics (network interface cards) and a large chunk of those give problems. there are some mobos that come without problematic chipsets like the ones powered by an intel nic (an intel mobo can still have a realtek nic) honestly i think your 6th gen i5 might still have a good enough time transcoding videos in plex. GPU transcoding is supported but the main reason we try not to use gpus is a mix of factors but can be boiled down to cost. 1) price of gpu 2) price of electricity - even at idle a gpu will be using a decent bit more in electricity and that adds up. i say give it a shot with your an igpu and if you really feel limited add the gpu later.

i'm not gonna go as far as saying never gonna happen but i'd say its on the furthest back burner if at all. special vdev is a scary one to implement because if it goes down, itll take the whole pool down with it on top of not being very useful for most homelab users slog also doesn't make the most sense for most users as to my best understanding it only really protects you in case of power loss and at that point you might be better served just getting a ups. Personally i do run a triple mirror special vdev on my storage pool and i think it causes some stability issues with hexos.

So actually we do want to have an official discord (in fact, we already have it "parked" so-to-speak), but we want to wait to roll it out when we can be more prepared to manage it. Our team is entirely revving on dev cycles right now and adding comms platforms to manage to an already thinly spread set of resources is only going to overwhelm and delay development. Bottom line is that I'm all we've got for official comms right now and I'm spread insanely thin at the moment. I really want to hire someone to take over communications for me, but the timing for that is more likely Q4 or even Q1 2026.

Hey it would be cool to have a straight forward way to install Nextcloud (e.g. the all in one edition https://nextcloud.com/blog/how-to-install-the-nextcloud-all-in-one-on-linux/) on HexOS. I set it up myself on my homelab, but the setup was not as easy and while the software itself works great, I'm not as satisfied with my implementation. It offers a lot of features with a client that is available on a lot of devices already, essentially substituting Cloud storage, Google Calender, Contacts, Office products, Slack (e.g. for small businesses) and as I just saw even LLM like ChatGPT. This would add huge additional value to HexOS, since you easily could substitute a lot of subscriptions that way, while having enormous privacy benefits, a thing the target audience of HexOS would surely profit of. Especially if there is also a way to safely expose it to the internet.

glad i could help

the jonsbo n4 case has ventilation holes all along the top of the case the 70mm coolers wouldn't really be chocked and would likely be bringing in fresh air from outside of the case

they work better for transcoding video in jellyfin or plex. if that doesnt matter to you feel free to use amd. they are garbage hardware with even worse linux drivers. Ive seen so many problems from them from system crashing to straight up not working. the most common 2.5 and 5gb nics are realtek because they are cheap but straight up disabled by truenas/hexos because they cause data corruption. networking more important. you can survive using amd for transcoding. gen 12 doesnt have that issue only 13 and 14 does. you don't need more than 32, heck you don't need more than 8 but the more you have the better itll perform. you can find it for a fraction of the price on ebay, there are fakes so i tend to avoid things being shipped directly from china. that said i've heard the fakes work fine. i would also avoid the 9300 and go with either 9200 or 9305 because 9300 has overheating problems. so for this i would just check the description and see if it has already been flashed to "i.t. mode" or i would ask the seller if it has been. these cards have 2 different modes and "i.t. mode" is what is compatible for us. while they can be manually flashed at home, its just not worth the effort since a large amount of them come pre-flashed. this looks not bad to me. since it comes with 2 sata break out cables each worth around ~10-12 usd

use the link i made for the build click edit this list remove the motherboard i picked then look for a new motherboard set sata 6gb slider to minimum 6. this will give you the models with 6 sata ports but majority of them do not have pricing so you will have to look for pricing yourself. also avoid any with realtek network interface cards. cache drives are barely a thing in hexos/truenas you are far better off allocating that budget for additional ram. if you do go with expansion cards like the lsi hbas they do support both sata and nvme on one expansion card depending on the model but im not too familiar with how to connect nvme drives to them. depending on the model the expansion cards are not expensive and might be a lot less expensive than different motherboard. if you start with a pool of at least 3 drives it is as simple as clicking add new drive and waiting. at this time until you change out all the drives in a pool all drives will be treated as the same size as the lowest capacity drive. once you finish changing them out, it should automatically increase in capacity. in the distant future we will have a feature called zfs anyraid which will let you mismatch drive sizes and still have use of the full capacity. That said its likely years away and may not be compatible with existing pools.

your best bet would be to jump up to a case that supports atx motherboards since matx motherboard with enough sata ports are rare. the jonsbo n4 can support 6 3.5" drives and 2 2.5" drives, which would require a total of 8 sata data ports to take full advantage of the case. There are motherboards that have 6 sata + 2 m.2 but they would likely be outside of your budget. any reason why you don't want to use a sata expansion card? for a homelab i would go with which ever of the 2 are cheaper. we have something similar but its not fully automated. hexos will warn you that a drive is problematic. you would then need to replace the drive and then tell hexos that the newly added drive is for the purpose of taking the place of the bad drive. then hexos will take care of the rest.

Hi there :). I'm upgrading from a hdd enclosure that I had connected to a mini-pc to this. I'll have 48tb of usable space and plan on upgrading with another 5hdd's at some point and then another 5hdd's even further down the line. I'll eventually add a GPU as well. Looking at the Nvidia Quadro p5000. Named the server Leela 🙂 CPU - Intel Core i9-12900K Mobo - ASUS Z790 Prime Gaming Mem - 64gb DDR5 (16x4) Boot Storage - 1tb nvme Teamgroup Mass Storage - WD Red 12tb NAS HDD's x5 SAS - SVNXINGTII SAS9305-16i PSU - NZXT C1000 ATX 3.1 Case - RackOwl 4U Server Chassis

Hi all. My $.02 is that there should be a way to echo or display the TrueNAS errors from within the HexOS management GUI. Basically, I have been trying to apply the new update(s) to my system, and it took me forever to realize that they were failing because I didn't assign enough space to my boot drive to download and unpack the update contents.

Personally, I'd vastly prefer that there was ONLY a local interface, and no centralized remote access to everyone's personal data. A remote interface can certainly be useful, but that isn't too difficult or technical to setup with something like tailscale. While I'm sure the HexOS team takes security and privacy very serious, imagine if there was ever a data breech at hexos that gave hackers/bad actors a list of all the home servers they could target, or worse a direct backdoor.

It would be useful in the dashboard if I could see a snapshot of users connected to services like SMB, NFS.

As the title says, I would like to get updates about HexOS in my RSS feed on Fresh RSS. Unless I'm blind, I don't see an RSS feed link.

Hey HexOS folks. I know a lot of us are feeling both frustrated about the pace of updates and hopeful about what's coming in the future for this platform. I have always been intimidated by platforms like UnRAID and TrueNAS - so this has been an opportunity for me to dip my toes into self-hosting. That said, the pace of communication from the team on the forum, Reddit, and elsewhere has been so very frustrating. The mods here are great and do what they can but we're not just here to get a product, I'm sure I speak for more than just myself in saying I'd love to see behind the curtain a little bit as an early adopter. Please, please, please consider this a priority, because idk about the rest of you but I can feel a fair bit of frustration starting to build here.

Thanks for your feedback and I wholeheartedly agree. I have gotten some very helpful messages from another community member here who actually acts as a Community Manager for some other pretty popular products. We are planning to expand the team in the future specifically in this area. I'm confident that by the end of Q3, you'll be much happier with the frequency of communication and updates!

FYI. An update from Robbie on Nascompares https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybOVCqDSLVg

You need to deactivate the C-States in the BIOS for Ryzen 1000-3000 CPUs, because this is causing the crashes.

I read online to check this box, save changes, and restart plex services. It appears to have worked for me.

The whole purpose of a NAS to keep data secure and resilient to data loss. Currently there is no way to backup and restore applications. Application Backups/Restore should be plug-and-play. Thoughts: First party implementation Simple Application independent Backup and restore applications Granular restore/backup individual applications Restore applications even on a new Hexos system from backup End-user should be able to browse application data through a file explore Breakaway from ZFS mindset like snapshots (abstracted away behind an advanced menu) and give users a simple traditional backup and restore option.

Had already installed the HA app through truenas and ran into countless issues, it was unusable! plus had been so long since i'd not be running bare metal / HA OS that i completely forgot about the lack of Add ons and other key features, which was a another blocker. Thus what would be amazing is a 'One-Click' option for Home Assistant BUT the option to install either as: VM (HA OS) App (Container) That way, users have the choice, and could be presented with the pro's / con's of both up front!

Hey all, similar to what TrueNas offers out of the box as the multi-user Time Machine option, I would like to see Time Machine Backup support for macOS devices. This could be a special type of folder for that special purpose only where settings are locked in and only user access permissions can be set as with any other folder. Hope to see this implemented at some point together with a quick tutorial on how to set up the backup in macOS with automatic drive connection on system start and so on. Would make the whole process of setting it up very easy for everyone. That feature would make HexOS a real alternative to the mac mini as a home server for "all-in on apple" people. Please feel free to ask for clarification and add your ideas!

For example, such UGREEN Nas has a mobile or desktop application that serves for remote access via a generated token. Although I did not understand how it is with granting access to a friend, and the fact that I have access to the interface through this token does not mean that I have remote access to the installed applications. I don't know how it works, I just noticed that new systems like UGREEN or FNOS go this way. It's probably a better way than Tailscale, which I would have to manually set for each friend or family. In addition, I noticed that these systems have Internet applications such as a gallery, a movie application and a file manager in the user interface, so through this mobile application and token you have access to everything directly from one interface and you do not have to open 10 applications separately.

I really dont know how simple is Tailscale going to be for everyone. I have not yet set it for my parents. I have been making it work for past 2 days, and got it working. My brother curently lives in Norway and can acces the data physicaly located in Czech Republic. Here is how: Go to Tailscale · Best VPN Service for Secure Networks and download the client for your PC/Mac or find it in APP store/Google play store. Log in with your prefered identity provider. You will need two (2) devices to make it work. After you have logged in into two (2) of your devices you will be taken to your command deck. Click on Settings. Then go to Keys - and Generate auth key Click Generate Key - you can add description at the top. Then copy the key. Open HexOS Comand deck and find Tailscale at the apps - log in to TrueNas. Se Set your time zone, hostname to what ever you want and paste the Auth Key you have generated in Tailscale. I use my server as an Exit Node as well - I'm trying to run Pi-hole on my Nas but just to a little succes. The Exit Node box is not filled in. If you want to use your server as and Exit Node you have to check it. Leave the rest as is and click Save at the bottom. That is it. When you want to get to your data just copy the ip of your device in the tailscale menu and add \\ in front of it. You will be prompted to log in into the drive so put in your user name and password you have created in HEXOS and you are good to go. This works on windows and iOS - i have set it up as a server in my Files app and in the VLC player to play media. I do not have different operating systems to confirm that it works there as well but i imagine it does. Hopefuly someone will find this helpful. I never used any of this and it took a lot of time to figure it out. Mainly the \\ before the IP adress. Im just u noob - i know :D. But it works without a problem. You will just be limited by your ISP - and the upload bandwith. With just 20Mb/s i cannot stream in 4K. But 1080p usualy works fine.

I know this is a request for a more 'One click' Hex TM integration, but incase people wanted to test this now, you can do this in Hex + TN today. (already had mine running a week without issue. TIME MACHINE INSTALL GUIDE Create a Folder & name it time machine (or a custom name) Set the Folder permissions (I left mine open, add user permissions here to restricted access) Navigate to the TrueNas UI (Server IP > Username: truenas_admin Pasword: server password from install) Navigate to the Shares tab, you should see your newly created share. Click on edit (pencil) On the Purpose drop down change to > Basic or multi user time machine. Press save/apply, and it'll prompt a restart of the SMB process. Go to your mac settings > general > Time machine. Click the + icon and locate your time machine share, then click setup disk. FYI if you aren't already connected to your Hex server, you'd need to do so now. Either search for the server in the network tab of finder OR connect to the server with finder > go > connect to server > SMB://[THE IP OF YOUR HEX SERVER] You can now choose to encrypt your backup with a password + if you choose, restrict the total disk usage the backup will have. You should now see your time machine backup setup. This will start automatically, but you can create a back up straight away if you choose. AUTO CONNECT SHARED DRIVE SETUP Now that could be it, but to ensure your Time machine backup will always occur, you need to ensure your Mac is always connected to your Hex server. to do this, we need to add the share to the login items Open Settings > general > Login items > click the + icon Locate your connected time machine share, then click open. You should now see the drive in the login items. That's it, you should be all setup and running.

I hope Home Assistant integration is pretty high on the 'To-Do' list given its prevalence in the community and seemingly frequent pairing with TrueNAS. It'd be my first request as far as home automation handling goes after some searching
