Upgrading GitLab server
I got a running GitLab server on my Debian Jessie server. GitLab Community Edition is an open-source git repository manager, but also supports code reviews, wiki’s, issue tracking and much more! GitLab is very similar to Github in a way, however you have full control of the server. You are running your own git server.
Normally Github will do all the system administration, upgrades and such for you. They make sure your code is safe and saved no matter what. Since I use GitLab, I need to take care of my own server. What you definitively not want is; to lose all your precious data!
Let’s Encrypt – Is your website secure?
I was searching for a good and free TLS certificate which is signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). A CA is an organization for issuing digital certificates. You need to have a Certificate Authority when you want to use HTTPS, secure HTTP web server connections. You know; when you visit a secure web-page (https://) and you will see a green lock-icon in your web-browser. This icon indicates that you have an encrypted connection with this website.
In this article I will explain how TLS certification requests normally works and how Let’s Encrypt works. Let’s Encrypt is a Certificate Authority, who provides free and trusted domain certificates. Eventually, I explain how to setup Let’s Encrypt yourself using Nginx webserver.
Debian 8 Jessie Server handleiding
Niet lang geleden heb ik mijn server opnieuw opgezet. Ik maak gebruik van Debian 8 (Jessie) als Linux distributie, en heb veel verschillende services geïnstalleerd en geconfigureerd (waaronder een mail server, webmail, cloud storage en git). Gelukkig hield ik alles netjes bij in een logboek. Ik zou graag mijn stappen willen delen, zodat iedereen een eigen server kan opzetten.
Ik ga ervan uit dat je beschikt over enige basis kennis van GNU/Linux (Debian). Ook al beschik je niet tot nauwelijks over deze kennis, zou het toch mogelijk moeten zijn om deze handleiding stap voor stap te volgen.
