Alright. You should just disable FTP by blocking the FTP port and use Hestia's file manager.

[@tochimoreno]

Thank you for the video, it has been very helpful to me, but I'm currently facing an issue and would like your assistance. I have followed all the steps as outlined in the video. I have installed the Hestia panel on Oracle Cloud, and have opened all the recommended ports, particularly port 25. The problem is that I am unable to send emails from Roundcube. Upon attempting to do so, a red message appears stating 'SMTP Error (): Connection to server failed'." "I have been dealing with this issue for quite some time now and have not yet been able to find a way to resolve it." "Many thanks.

[@BizanosaTutorials]

Oracle blocks SMTP ports docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/releasenotes/changes/f7e95770-9844-43db-916c-6ccbaf2cfe24/ . Good thing is you can use HestiaCP SMTP relay : as outlined here kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnm4e5-Pfbxsr9Usi=EkTByE7r1qorvUTs

You can slo contact Oracle support to open port 25

when using cloudflare dns, do we need to set the ns settings of cloudflare in hestiacp ns settings?

[@ivakarlovag6933]

this was not explained, as you have shown under point 2 how to setup own nameserver. but these are not needed when using cloudflare?

[@BizanosaTutorials]

@@ivakarlovag6933 when using cloudflare you don't need to add any NS settings on Hestia. You only need to connect your domain to cloudflare, add the cloudflare Nameservers in your domain provider dashboard. Then go back and copy your records such as A, MX etc into cloudflare.

[@stripedgoat]

Hello. I have a question... I'm looking around if I should try setting un my own vps, or rather go with a managed one.... HestiaCP looks relatively easy with their installation script, but how about server security? And how would one go with server maintenance? What does that consist of? Thanks!

[@BizanosaTutorials]

If you want to learn and get better, go with a self managed VPS. Yes HestiaCP is a good panel that's easy to use. I have an initial server setup for Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 11. Ensure you do everything in the video before installing any panel. Here are my tips you must follow for security: 1. Keep a backup. As a beginner you will mess up and a backup will save you. 2. Follow everything in my server setup video . It will definitely help. 3. Use Cloudflare. Go to security settings, turn on bot control and other features. Or just be a complete douche and put your site under attack mode (it may affect some things on your site) 4. Go to crowdsec and create an account and do the 3 steps to connect your server. 5. For WordPress add security plugins and only use themes and plugins from reliable individuals who update their stuff. If you have to use a managed service, go with Cloudways.

[@kabapy2]

many thanks, any tutorials about setting up reverse proxy in hestia

[@BizanosaTutorials]

What are you trying to proxy? Most times if you need to proxy , you should just go with docker/podman and Nginx proxy manager. Depends on your setup though.

If you're going to use docker, just install docker only. You don't need a control panel to use docker.

@@BizanosaTutorials Hey Bizanosa. I like all your videos. Those are so beginner friendly. Thanks a lot. My question now is "Do I need to have a valid and clean domain to be used as hostname for installing hestiacp? My valid domain right now is currently hosted on a shared hosting and I want to try the vps. That means my domain has deffirent ip address connected to the shared hosting. Can I use that to install hestiacp on my vps that I just purchased?

[@BizanosaTutorials]

For the hostname,use a subdomain and add the DNS records. I recommend using cloudflare for DNS. The video will get to DNS at some point feel free to skip to that bit. If you're using Vultr like I did in the video, add the subdomain when deploying your server.
