# Ansible playbook to set up VPSs
An Ansible playbook to set up VPSs (for Opnxng). It applies to Debian-based servers in any architecture.
## Before running
To install Debian on Oracle Cloud, refer to [this documentation](ORACLECLOUD.md).
On a fresh Debian system, replace the default `debian` user:
```
# Give root account a password
sudo passwd root
# Configurate SSHD to temporarily allow root login with password
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/sshd.conf
# Login as root, add new user and delete debian user
su root
sudo groupmod -n [user] debian
sudo usermod -l [user] debian
sudo usermod -d /home/[user] -m [user]
sudo passwd [user]
sudo userdel debian
sudo rm -r /home/debian
# Switched [user]
su [user]
sudo passwd -dl root
# Configurate SSHD again to allow [user] login and to set a custom port
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/sshd.conf
```
## Configurations
You can modify the [packages to be installed](set-up.yml) and the [UFW rules](roles/ufw/tasks/main.yml).
Passwords and other sensitive data are kept locally as encrypted variables in [secrets.yml](vars/secrets.example.yml).
