SELinux is like giving a sculptor a pair of motorbike gloves so he doesn't cut himself. He can't sculpt either but hey ho. Also like Norton Internet Security. Of course it's secure because nobody can use the fecking internet while it's enabled. --- End quote --- Haha so true. The thing I hate about SELinux is that it just breaks things without telling you why. You will spend hours figuring out why a service won't start, or why you're getting access denied despite checking your Apache config a million times or why you can't write to a samba share etc... The logs will tell you that it failed, but not WHY. Why is it accessed denied? I set all the right permissions and it still does not work, why? Then the light bulb turns on "OHHH SE LINUX!" Turn it off, bang, everything works. The idea behind it might be great, but if I wanted that level of security I would just remove the CPU out of the socket and replace it with the plastic holder the motherboard came with. I've managed to keep my long red hair intact by disabling that as one of the first steps when setting up a new server. |

I found it, and all the problems with yum/dnf recently, can be resolved by using Debian instead :popcorn: |

I know it's already been mentioned but.... for the one commercial site I run.... it sits on Digital Ocean and just works. Took me less than a day to set up and does the Let's Encrypt magic using Traefik with very little config. I hardly ever touch it and it's been running continuously for ever. |

I've got a node on DO as well. Very good service. Apart from outbound email which is always shit on a VPS. |

For email I run iredmail locally on a VM on my own hardware (was HP Microserver now Fujitsu something or other). Just have to fight the spamhaus blacklists every so often when they stop trusting plusnet. |
