Better to USE 18.04 LTS x64 2023 ?
Posted: Sun Jan 15, 2023 7:05 pm
SEE to the ********************** Where i get to the main point of this post :
I noticed that the hyper v version still uses Linux Ubuntu 18.04 LTS x64 and It does not say SERVER it just says its the 18.04 LTS x64 It seams I would have better luck setting this up for the first time. I want to setup a remote access server. I want to learn about how they work. All this encryption and tunneling and gaining remote access is all fascinating to me. For years I have been totally frustrated when I would see IP addresses and subnet masks. Well today I know what CDIR means. I was able to get a server 22.04 installed, up and going with a desktop but I was not able to realize an install of Open VPN. after I typed in sudo -s it allowed me to run the commands for isntalling the openvpn remote access server But it kept saying that It could not make a secure connection so it did some things but I don't think it did all of it.
I do not understand what the SSH is when I try to install Ubuntu - The tutorial I used said it was for headless installs
I do not know what the update package is talking about
I do not know how to get a setup with ssh keys from github or lunchpad
I do not know why the apt get repository was saying that it did not have a secure connection and it was refusing things when I tried to install openvpn.
I do not know if it is ok to have a desktop installed on a remote access server.
If I did not have a desktop installed how would I get a text document opened up so I could copy and paste commands.
**** I do not know if the server edition of ubuntu is required to run open vpn server
**** IF I get setup with the SSH THEN it would mean I could access my server from a webpage and I could copy and paste commands in. It seams that is a must do. ? I did reserve A Static IP for my bare metal server on my router. I put the mac address of the bare metal Ethernet card so it would seam I should be able to gain access to it once I get the SSH setup right.
Hey well here is a funny thing -
https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/installation
! I have been looking everywhere for the answers but where they are all at. I think it is best I go ahead and read it. I am going to make an attempt with a hyperv gen 1 install. At least then I will get to see what it is supposed to be like and then I will try installing the 18.04
I have a head full of questions so that will make reading and learning easer. If every thing works as planned, in a few weeks I will have a server setup and I will understand how to configure and use it. ANY advice ?
My main question is this:
************************
Because 18.04 is still being used as a hyper V it would make sense that I should be still using that version when I try to set it up on bare metal after all there must be a reason why they are not offering hyper-v in 22.04 there is a reason for lts In the windows world every new os has a very frustrating learning curve.
