I am making a series of blog posts about website and application hosting. There are many topics I'd like to talk about (IP, DNS, logs, linux settings). I am sharing here some knowledge and documenting for myself too.

This first post is not the most interesting in my opinion as this is talking about the basis : hardware and Linux distribution. I am not talking about non-Linux OS (OpenBSD, FreeBSD, etc). For the next one I will document way more commands and process to go through (iptable, fail2ban, logs on memory, etc).

I don't consider myself good at writing so any help is welcome, I try to put as many images/charts as possible but this one is tricky. Feedbacks are welcome.

I’m wondering how it goes with online game for instance (wouldn’t it be a no-go for many casual users?

I've wondered the same honestly. I'm able to connect to servers, never been an issue, but if I want to host my own game server it's only available locally and no ports are ever exposed (understandably, since they don't exist lol). Been a real hassle that's for sure!
