#stalwart — Public Fediverse posts

After thirty years of treating "where does this run" as a question of latency and cost, I'm moving jcoffey.dev and coffeylabs.org to Germany and my mail to the Netherlands.

It'll be slower, it'll cost more, and I get to rebuild sender reputation from scratch. I priced all of that before committing.

Why anyway: the planned cutover beats the emergency one, every time. This is that instinct, one level up the stack.

Wir sind zurück mit Bastelprojekten, Neuigkeiten aus der Homelab-Welt und dem ein oder anderen Rant.

Viel Spaß beim Hören!

I came across the #Fail2Ban #docker image from #linuxserverio and thought to myself that it's finally time to set up Fail2Ban. I admit i never used it before and it was a bit difficult to add it to my #playbook as all of my #servers have different services and therefore different #logfile paths, but that's nothing #jinja #templating can't fix.

Now that i've got #Discord notifications for banned #IPs, it's time to work on actual #IPblocking. I also want to use the #IPComplaint and #AbuseIPDB actions as i really like the idea of reporting abuse (even though i have no idea how effective that may be).

I may also want to replace the discord #webhook with #email notifications later as that's mostly the reason i've set up a #mailserver ( #stalwart ) in the first place.

I mean, most of my services are only accessible from #tailscale or my #homenetwork, but since #Ansible makes it so much easier to apply higher standards, i just can't resist. My #homelab is changing every day and i think setting up additional #security, even though i don't need it yet, is never a bad idea.
