Mint Setup Notes

Apache httpd

  • Mostly sudo apt-get install apache2
  • Some notes at: https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/486

SSHD

  • Installing SSH daemon http://linuxg.net/how-to-enable-ssh-on-linux-mint-15-14-13-12/
  • sudo apt-get install openssh-server
  • Disable root login: https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/security-tip-disable-root-ssh-login-on-linux/
  • sshd defaults to PermitRootLogin prohibit-password
    • This seems to mean that ssh key is still permitted.

    • Change it no.  Don’t allow root to login directly at all.
