Question

linux

Hello guys! those who know, please tell me what a complete set of software is needed for convenient work on vps (os debian) I am engaged in site building, web servers, etc.
It is advisable to write a list) Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

Sergo17,
firstly, this is of course putty ,
secondly, you need some kind of sftp client, for example, a very convenient winscp ,
thirdly, because almost all settings of almost all applications in Debian, including system components, are stored in the form of ordinary text files, then you need a simple, fast and a little smart text editor, for example, notepad ++
three of these programs will be enough to completely, comfortably, set up a vps server for your needs
in addition to the simple top and the more advanced htop system monitor , there are quite complex and multifunctional monitoring systems, for example, nagios, zabbix, but for a beginner they will be unbearably complicated, so for a start it is better to use, for example, a very light but functional munin monitoring system

If your level of administration is below average, use the server management system: ISPManager, cPanel. Of the free, Russian counterparts, you can advise ajenti.org

Answer 6

Yes, what does the level of my knowledge have to do with it, I asked a list of utilities necessary for the webmaster that help to work faster (various resource monitors, text editors, and the like, (in general, what professionals use)

Answer 7

Professionals use the terminal + VIM. IMHO.

Answer 8

The first is fail2ban to cut off the most impudent bots knocking on port 22. This is simply the first minimum level of protection against your vps becoming part of a botnet, someone else's game or spam server. Strictly IMHO, installing fail2ban is necessary for everyone who uses ssh open to the "world".
