do you have the FIPS version?
No, the fips version was not part of the promotion.
Vaultwarden would indeed work with the Yubikey. Because of some certificate issue I never got it to work with my old key. But that is sadly the downside of them. you cannot update their firmware (which to be fair would make them potentially less secure).
The other thing that i liked to do was to store a long passphrase on it (it acts as a keyboard when plugged). Then you can just add a custom pre or suffix and press the button and have an easy to enter secure password.

@jdaviescoates It seems you need to have an active zone or use zero trust.

@fbartels I came across this Yubico page that lists which keys work with Bitwarden (includes the legacy keys) https://www.yubico.com/works-with-yubikey/catalog/bitwarden-premium/

@humptydumpty yes, I know them. the one I previously had is 9+ years old. I don't remember the details but some certificate on my stick was expired and therefore the setup with vaultwarden never worked. I wanted to upgrade to a stick that supports fido 2.0 for quite a while and the Cloudflare promotion was too good to miss.

@BrutalBirdie Thank @fbartels . We owe him a beer now.

I hear you. I looked into Yubikeys many times but the cost ramped up quickly since it's best if you have a backup key and with a handful of family members, the bill wasn't easy to swallow. This deal makes it possible. I wish they made a nano NFC version though. I could have it hidden inside a custom made wearable like a pendant, bracelet, or even toss it inside a watch.

thanks for the heads up, I guess I had better set something up then... hopefully I'm not too late (probably should've read that and done it before clicking on the claim offer button!)

@humptydumpty do I understand correctly that in order to use Cloudflare on a domain, they have to be registrar for it, i.e. transfer the domain to them?
I am my own Nominet registrar, so if the above is true, I cannot use Cloudflare on domains currently with Nominet.
EDIT : should have looked a bit further.
They don't support registering .UK domains so the above cannot be true.
Doh !
Ignore me. -
@timconsidine Yes
They started fronting/protecting domains before they became a registrar which is very recent.

No, you can also delegate single zones or the whole domain to another name server.
For example I have some domains registered at autodns, which cloudron does not have an auto config for.
So I can delegate either the whole domain or a zone to another name server.Example:
I have my
AwesomeDomain.tldand I want to have a cloudron onmy.dev.AwesomeDomain.tldand want the.*.devzone to be managed by DigitalOcean.
I can set 3xNSrecords fordevwithns[1-3].digitalocean.com.as value.Now the zone is delegated to DigitalOcean DNS Servers and can be managed over there.
Watch out tho! When configuring Cloudron you have to click
Advanced settingsfor the DNS setup and set theZone Name (Optional)todev.AwesomeDomain.tldwhich would be by defaultAwesomeDomain.tld -
@BrutalBirdie thank you !
For some reason I struggle with Cloudflare.
Must try harder - I'm sure it's within my grasp
-
@timconsidine if you need some help, let me know. I am happy to help.
-
@timconsidine No, I still have my domains at their respective registrars. You just edit the nameservers to cloudflare and you're set.
Cloudflare Nameservers To use Cloudflare, ensure your authoritative DNS servers, or nameservers have been changed. These are your assigned Cloudflare nameservers. Type Value NS sunny.ns.cloudflare.com NS terin.ns.cloudflare.comBTW, renewal prices have gone up. The .com was $8.57 and it has gone up to $9.15. Namesilo sent an email back in aug-sep(?) about the price increase so it must be ICANN mandated.
-
@humptydumpty thank you
I use my Nominet account for *.UK and dynadot for all else.
Dynadot seem similar prices. -
@timconsidine i recently documented the steps in a little blog post. https://blog.9wd.eu/posts/9wd-tech-external-services/

@jdaviescoates during the mess of figuring out how to get to that offer button, I created a new account and signed up for the offer just like you did. I received an email yesterday with the "decline" and telling me how to become eligible. The sad part is that I haven't received the coupon on my eligible account yet.
