Great video! Thanks you very much for sharing your knowlege.

[@synacktime]

For sure!! Thank you for taking the time to comment! It's appreciated!

Good video man.

[@synacktime]

Thank you Neo, really appreciate it :)

Thanks for the video tutorial. Question -- would we need to set up port forwarding from our router? Sorry if you said this in the video and I missed it.

[@synacktime]

Yup! If you're hosting it privately. I'm going to do a video soon using tunnels with Cloudflare soon!

[@mehdirahman4127]

@synacktime Thanks for the reply and I look forward to your video! One more follow up I have is what if you use Caddy to reverse proxy instead of NGINX? I have done a search and it seems you do not need to expose ports in your router if using this approach.

Great video. Please change style of some of your site, because the sudden dark and white background change blasted my eyeballs out, when you alt+tab between them.

[@synacktime]

Thank you for the recommendation!

[@synacktime]

Ahh I see what you mean now :D I changed the logo a bit ago, lemme know what ya think!

[@hpgaming7012]

From where did you install the portainer?

[@synacktime]

Hey @hpgaming7012, I had it pre-installed. Here's a link to my site where I show you exactly what command to type to get you rolling! synacktime.com/projects/portainer-installing-upgrading/

Thank you for this great video, however I'm not able to set up the admin page, I've followed the steps to hash the password using shell not portainer I don't see where to add the hashed password it seems that I don't have the .env file. Any idea please?

[@synacktime]

Sure thing, my friend! Here is a copy of the .env file, though you'll have to rename it to .env - github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/blob/main/.env.template That should give you all of the variables you'll need. One of the variables in that file is the ADMIN_TOKEN, you'll just need to comment that out. Kudos on using the shell by the way!

[@salemzridette2653]

@@synacktime Thank you so much! That worked and I can disable the admin access by commeting that Admin_token line:)

[@synacktime]

@@salemzridette2653 Woo! :) Happy to help!

[@fred-schneider]

thanks for the great video session .. but .. - I would recommend to disable that annoying and distracting background pling-pling noise ! - I wished you would use a larger, colored, noticeable, calm (!), easy to follow cursor instead of an almost invisible, hard to follow micro-pointer !

[@synacktime]

Thank you for the suggestions! I've made a few changes in my screen zoom in my most recent video but I'll look for a cursor mod 🙌
