How is everybody securing their freshly installed #freebsd #openbsd #linux root servers before connecting it to the pubic internet?
Doing that properly would require configuring the firewall and installing ssh key files, all while network is not up.
I just found out that my providers #kvm web console does not allow pasting text. Sooo, how to get files to the machine then? Create and mount an .iso?
Or do you all allow password ssh authentication for the first five minutes and call it a day?
