Searches have turned up a mishmash of solutions, so I'd like to get some suggestions. I've been happy with FreeBSD in bare metal scenarios, so I'm testing it in a VPS setup as a Jupyter server.
I'm using ipfw and blacklistd set up using the docs here and here but it's sparse.
For examples:
-- for IPFW would I use workstation or client?
-- does IPFW need to be configured to use blacklistd?
-- is fail2ban a better option? It seems to have more tutorials.
Generally, if anyone has some good common sense tips I'm all ears. This isn't highly sensitive, I just want some sane protection.
