[01:04] anyone here know about linux nvidia drivers? [01:04] should i change it from neaveau? [01:04] what will happen? [01:26] not much, the nvidia driver really doesn't do anything on ubuntu server === chris14_ is now known as chris14 [04:09] I'd like to use a GUI while remotely administrating my server, but I don't want to make my server vulnerable, or have it run while I'm not connected. Could you point me to a good resource on achieving this? [04:12] !info cockpit | Username__ maybe [04:12] Username__ maybe: cockpit (277-1, kinetic): Web Console for Linux servers. In component universe, is optional. Built by cockpit. Size 20 kB / 72 kB [04:13] running something remotely, would always be a risk for intruders [04:13] better try to manage your servers cli [04:15] maybe elaborate the kind of administration you need, and volunteers might advice you how to approach Username__ [04:15] I just installed cockpit, and that I can only access it over the local network with my long password seems pretty secure to me. (I'm no expert) I like all the features a great deal, but now I want to set up docker, and the guides I'm seeing are using GUIs. I probably don't need one, I'll do more research [04:18] Username__: ssh remote management could be one way to administrate, but also needs a security thinkover so your server doesnt get hammered on ssh [04:19] If I set up ssh keys it should be good, since they're really long, right? I think I saw an option somewhere about that. [04:20] !ssh [04:20] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for its homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [04:20] !security [04:20] Security Updates are dealt with here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security - See also !root, !firewall, !server, and !usn [04:21] setting up another port on ssh and use fail2ban can help the hammering [04:22] !info fail2ban [04:22] fail2ban (0.11.2-6, kinetic): ban hosts that cause multiple authentication errors. In component universe, is optional. Built by fail2ban. Size 386 kB / 2,049 kB [04:22] with ssh keys the hammering is really just annoying [04:22] and fail2ban can reduce youe log spam here yes [04:22] keep in mind it is a universe package [04:33] Great, I told UFW to let 9090 through for cockpit and ssh, and enabled it, and installed fail2ban, though I installed firewalld when I first turned on cockpit because cockpit suggested it, and uninstalled it when it blocked cockpit. Should I try to switch over to firewalld, or is there a way to get rid of the "Not running (Error) message from cockpit in regards to firewalld? [07:37] if you use 'ufw', it can rate limit a port like 22, and then the hammering will be limited in practice... [07:40] morning JanC [07:40] o/ [07:40] lots of people on the streets this morning! :) [07:41] yeah indeed [10:47] oh reconnection it is I guess === shokohsc4 is now known as shokohsc [10:48] Hello, I am here to find the wizards of lake curtin so they may help me to get stuff from /cdrom/ to /target/. Still looking for help [14:33] have you tried: mount /dev/sr0 /target ? [14:34] err, do you have stuff in a CD and want to make it available on /target or do you have a directory called /cdrom and want to move/copy to /target ? === shokohsc7 is now known as shokohsc === elastic_dog is now known as Guest9292 === shokohsc8 is now known as shokohsc
