Why not GitHub or GitLab for free?

That was part of the etc
Also I thought GitHub was more for storing scripts and opensource stuff.

@travisdh1 let us know what you find or solution.
Been having a few issues at one site where laptops just drop off randomly

@JaredBusch thanks for the detailed example

Thanks all for the input. Will look at Azure/AWS etc for hosting if I will only be under a £1

@scottalanmiller said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

Yeah, this is standard and built in to most static site mechanisms.

OK sounds good, any examples on how to do it

@obsolesce said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

I thought static as in literally static html pages. If you are talking about WordPress and PHP pages, that won't work on anything I mentioned, unless you have something running somewhere else that converts them to static HTML pages and pushes them to there.

It was going to be static but wanted to upload larger images but not have them taking up the page, and just clicking to enlarge for full view. Hence thinking a CMS with light box.
But happy if there's a simple was to do it with just HTML and PHP

As I mentioned my coding skills were lost 20+ years ago

@obsolesce said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

We'll technically it might cost you $0.02 a month to host a static site on Azure/AWS. It costs me $0.01 a month for my static site on Azure because the storage costs. But it's totally free on the others I mentioned.

OK that should a lot better will have to look more into their offerings, I just assumed pricing was a bit hight then that. Like Vultr etc etc

@scottalanmiller said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

If the pages are static how did WordPress get involved?

Although they are static pages I wanted to use a light box type Plug-in so I can use larger images but display as thumbnails. Just thought a easy with WordPress and that's was the first thing I thought of.

But was happy to install anything

(Before its mentioned, yes you can most probably do it all with just HTML/PHP but my coding knowledge is zero now a day)

Because User

^^this

@obsolesce said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

You can do that for free at Gitlab, GitHub, AWS, Azure, GCP, etc...

Why wast time and resources doing it at home?

I tried WordPress free hosting, but to use plugins you have to pay

Never heard of Gitlab before until Jared mentioned it. AWS / Azure wasn't aware of any free teirs after trial periods have finished, but will look closer see what I can find.

@pete-s said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

I think it would be easier to just setup a $5/month vultr instance. From what you say, there is no real reason why it has to be hosted at home.

But that will cost me this is only to host a few static pages.

@scottalanmiller said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

If he wasn't on WordPress, he could host for FREE with GitLab, CloudFlare or several other free enterprise hosts.

GitLab Pages is where my poor under populated blog resides.

I'll give gitlab a go

@scottalanmiller said in Technologies Begging to be Ransomwared:

If, for whatever reason, you need lots of users on lots of machines there are ways to do that. Like a simple script of net user and voila, 20 users and 100 machines, as fast or faster than AD will do it. And without the confusing caching and time out issues.

So how does that create the 20 users on all 100 machines?

@pete-s said in How to Secure a Website at Home:

What kind of website is it and who is going to access it?

It's a Wordpress site at the moment, but it's simple going to be static pages showing images and test. Showing repair jobs and meter reading, so everything is in place.

I'll only be a few people accessing when working together to diagnose the pcb.

@hobbit666 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Didn't want to start a few thread at the moment,

Always make a new thread. make it way the fuck easier to find this recommendation later.

Only asked in "What your Doing" thread as if people said don't bother no need for a thread lol

@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

I always use a reverse proxy now (that's what putting Nginx between the server and the outside world does).

Either way, same server or separate VM should be ok. I prefer a separate VM, but that's because I already have one setup with gobs of things running through it.

That's what i was thinking. Now to get one setup and configured
