    @humptydumpty said in What's The Best Backup Solution Provider For Cloudron?: @jdaviescoates it’s nice not to have all your eggs in the same basket. I didn’t consider that you didn’t have to have the vps with hetzner to use the storage box. I do actually have a dedicated server with hetzner too, but it is at least at a different location. Still, looking forward to being able to have multiple backup locations so I can spread those eggs around! The storage box needs remounting after a CR update, right? That does seem to happen, yes. At least with the CIFS mount that I think I'm still using.

    Maybe I'm not seeing the big picture here, but we should let them continue using those free domains for spam, that way we can simply blacklist the TLD entirely. That's 60% less phishing emails right there.

    Yes, that was another can of worms (https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/12112/email-smtp-connection-closed/16?_=1721229448552). They thought the Hetzner IP (US server) was from iran and had it blocked causing the SMTP issue. I had to reassign new IP to the server and SMTP is working now. On my third attempt, I got one that's not blacklisted anywhere (yet). edit: tying up loose ends by adding link

    @humptydumpty You have to remember that 99% of providers have the login ‘root’, according to me the only provider I tested was OVH they have ‘ubuntu’. As for SSH security, I recommend to disable the password login, only with the key. Another option is to restrict in the Firewall in the Hetzner panel port 22 to your home internet IP address

    I update IPdeny lists (in order to block certain countries) with @imc67 script, see https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3795/firewall-spamassassin-automatic-list-update?page=3 It's not state-of-the-art security, but the spam and mail server abuse attempts have dropped significantly.

    @girish He likes running services like this so people can maintain anonymity when visiting popular online services. It is a calling of his. He stays abreast of what Free Software alternatives are available for sites like Youtube and then runs them on his (quite beefy) servers.

    @IniBudi Generally speaking, the only times where Linux needs to reboot for updates is when the file being updated was in use during the update itself, situations like the following but not limited to: Service(s) were updated but not restarted may require update Kernel updates or Kernel Module updates As you saw from other replies there are different ways around it, if you're paying money. But generally speaking, unless there was a huge security update, you can hold off on rebooting until the weekend when there is likely less server traffic.

    It is unfortunate that Cloudflare are becoming a choke-point on the internet. Thanks for publishing your research! Why did you like porkbun for DNS?

    @BrutalBirdie Yes, something just like that. If there is any Open Source equivalent, that would be good to know.
