I will set up, secure and fix your linux server or vps
About this Gig
Is your Linux server or VPS new, unsecured, or not working properly? I will set it up, lock it down, and fix problems so you can focus on your project.
I'm a Computer Science engineer with RHEL 7/8/9 administration training, hands-on networking and security experience, and CompTIA Network+ and Fortinet Cybersecurity certifications.
WHAT I CAN DO:
- Initial server setup and system updates
- SSH hardening (key login, root login disabled, secure config)
- Firewall setup (UFW / firewalld / iptables)
- Fail2ban protection against brute-force attacks
- Docker and Docker Compose installation and setup
- Automated backups
- Nginx or Apache with free SSL (Let's Encrypt)
- Troubleshooting: failed services, full disks, permission errors, DNS and network issues
SUPPORTED SYSTEMS:
Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, CentOS and RHEL, on any provider (AWS, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Contabo, Vultr, etc.).
BEFORE YOU ORDER:
Message me your provider, OS version and goal. Please take a snapshot or backup first, and share temporary SSH access only. Never send your root password in chat. Rotate your credentials after delivery.
Clear communication, fast replies.
FAQ
Which Linux distributions and providers do you support?
Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, CentOS and RHEL. I work on any provider, including AWS, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Contabo and Vultr. If your distro isn't listed, message me before ordering.
Do you need my root password?
No. Please never send your root password in chat. Create a temporary user with sudo access or add my SSH public key, and I will give you steps to do it safely. After delivery, remove my access and rotate your credentials.
Is it safe? What if something breaks?
Please take a snapshot or backup of your server before I start. I make changes step by step, keep your existing services running, and send you a written summary of everything I changed, so any step can be reversed.
Can you fix a server that is already live and has problems?
Yes, for issues like failed services, full disks, permission errors, SSH lockouts, and DNS or network problems. Message me the error and your OS version first so I can confirm I can help before you order.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes. After your order, I offer a monthly check (updates, log review, backup test and a short report). Message me or add the extra to your order.
