Introduction
Everything on this page needs to be done as root, unless specified, so login as root, or su to root.
su -
Vultr.com
Vultr.com doesn't install ssh keys, you will need to log-in as root with the autogenerated password, then install your ssh key.
# As root echo 'ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIANJ9BKKslS9Zqp1dRWL1nRiLmFp7nGvP06zPJ4L7cES aram@emerald.local' >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys echo 'ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIJnkro8LT0TS+NTOIB787wfqIwv2VTmXXYsnsoVk71UE aram@horizon.local' >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
Change the autogenerated password:
usermod -p `jot -r -c 30 a z | rs -g0 0 30 | encrypt -b a` root
Set the hostname
echo 'freedom.mgk.ro' > /etc/myname
Update the software
echo 'https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD' > /etc/installurl syspatch
Install basic software
pkg_add bash rsync
Create a user
This will create a user with a random password that can do passwordless doas:
useradd -m -g staff -L staff -G wheel -c 'Aram Hăvărneanu' -s /bin/ksh -p `jot -r -c 30 a z | rs -g0 0 30 | encrypt -b a` aram
Enable passwordless doas for the staff group:
cat <<EOF > /etc/doas.conf permit nopass :staff permit nopass keepenv root EOF
SSH
For ssh access, use su to switch from root to the user and then add ssh keys.
su - aram # as a user mkdir -p .ssh echo 'ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIJnkro8LT0TS+NTOIB787wfqIwv2VTmXXYsnsoVk71UE aram@horizon.local' >> .ssh/authorized_keys echo 'ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIC8dcfsqZJWTNTCfATbD6WiZyWoK3AiihynONRjCrtMw aram@oceanic.local' >> .ssh/authorized_keys chmod 700 .ssh chmod 644 .ssh/authorized_keys
