  • A new homepage for the business of my wife.

    I plan to use Hugo for it, I just wish the documentation would be better.

    For the homepage I need a few additional “non-blog” pages and from the documentation I am not sure how to do that the best way.

    But to be honest, I have not really looked deeper into that, so it is very possible that I just missed something.


  • I only bind applications to ports on the Internet facing network interfaces that need to be reachable from outside, and have all other ports closed because nothing is listening on them. A firewall in this case would bring me no further protection from external threats, because all those ports have to be open in the firewall too.

    But Linux comes with a firewall build in, so I use it even if it is not strictly needed with my strict port management regime for my services. And a firewall has the added benefit to limit outgoing network traffic to only allowed ports/applications.
