Fixing Common Issues

 

  • Disk Space Full: Use du -sh /* to find large directories and df -h to see mount points.

💡 Tips for a Successful Server Setup

 

  • Minimize the Footprint: Only install the packages you absolutely need to reduce the attack surface.

  • SSH Key Auth Only: Disable password authentication in /etc/ssh/sshd_config immediately.

  • Automate Documentation: Use a "Runbook" or Git-based documentation to track every change made to the server.

  • Test Backups: A backup is only a backup if you have successfully performed a test restoration this month.
