Hey all! For the longest time I’ve had a server that hosts some things (eg Syncthing), but is only available via SSH tunneling.
I’ve been thinking of self-hosting more things like Nextcloud and Vaultwarden. I can keep my SSH tunneling setup but it might make it difficult to do SSL.
How do you manage the security of having public-facing servers?
I need to learn more about cloudflare. Do you have the guide for this setup!
Unfortunately no guide, just things I’ve pieced together myself over the years.
Cloudflare is probably the easiest and most intuitive part of the setup though, you can setup dns/proxy/firewall rules very intuitively, and I’m sure there are plenty of guides out there.
Becarefull not everything is allowed true clousflare. I believe officialy only web content is. So having nextcloud behind it for example to upload and download files. Is as far as i am aware against the TOS.
@kylian0087 @hib It used to be but the updated TOS removed the mention of file types and it seems that using media traffic is allowed as per the latest TOS.
Oh that is really nice! Time to make some changes in then!
