🧠 Command Essentials & Troubleshooting

🔑 Essential Commands Across Distributions

While the package managers differ, the logic remains the same. Here is how we navigate the different ecosystems:

🛠️ Fixing Common Issues

1. Disk Space Full: Run du -sh /* to find the culprit. Check /var/log for runaway log files.

2. Locked Out of SSH: Ensure Port 22 is open in the firewall and the sshd service is running (systemctl status sshd).

3. Permission Denied: Use ls -l to check ownership. Apply chown user:group filename or chmod 644 for standard files.

💡 Tips for a Successful Server Setup

• Minimal Install: Always start with a "Minimal" or "Core" installation to reduce the attack surface.

• Use LVM: Always use Logical Volume Management for partitions; it makes future disk resizing much easier.

• SSH Key Auth Only: Disable password-based logins immediately to prevent brute-force attacks.

• Documentation: Maintain an operational runbook for every custom change made to the system.
