Local DNS/DHCP (with a raspberry pi for failover), Zabbix for monitoring devices troubleshooting Internet outages, Zoneminder as a front-end for the security cameras. But mainly, it's about my day-to-day, real-life, human-readable data and content, which I've tried to digitize as much as possible...
Email: Most of my email going back to the mid 90's. Available locally via IMAP or remotely via webmail.
Photos: new photos I take, plus scanned versions of old photos, organized by photographer and year. Shared via HTTP and DLNA
Audio: My entire music collection, in FLAC or MP3 format. Also a bunch of free music downloaded from Internet Archive and Musopen. Shared via HTTP and DLNA.
Video: All my home videos, including digitized Super8 films from my childhood. My entire collection of DVDs and VHS tapes (including shows taped off TV). Also, public domain movies downloaded from Internet Archive. Shared via HTTP and DLNA
Text: Scans of important documents, bills, bank statements, PDFs of the instruction manuals to most appliances and gadgets in the house. Scans of letters I received in college. eBooks. Interesting articles from the web or from periodicals. Public domain texts (Project Gutenberg, government publications, sheet music, textbooks). Shared via HTTP.
Software: ISOs of various old operating systems and applications. Netboot images for whatever OS I'm using on the desktop at the moment. Archives of old software. Drivers, ROMs, firmware, fonts. Shared via HTTP or TFTP where needed for OS installation over PXE.
While I've organized things in a pretty logical file hierarchy, I also use Yacy as a private search engine. It periodically crawls and indexes the file structure and categorizing results into collections, such as 'books' 'manuals' 'music' etc. to make searching easier.
