I want to install Open Claw and set up my personal AI assistant. >> Just use a VPS. >> Oh, I was just going to buy Macini. >> No, you need to use a fresh Linux VPS. Start by spinning up a server on your cloud. Then immediately we're under attack. Yep. SSH scam started 12 seconds ago. Do not install anything before securing your VPS root SSH access to update and APA to upgrade. Why? Why aren't these installed by default? We need to harden the SSH tunnel. Gnoop G. Then we activate the firewall, but we leave one door open. Port 2222 67. No, the standard for arbitrary numbers is 2222. Then we autoban IPs that gas passwords. And now I will not get hacked. No, I'm attacking it right now because it didn't enable automatic security updates. And now we get to the most interesting part. Install open clock. Installing a private VPN mesh. Now we [music] allow SSA only support 2022 but package to our private VPN. So we disable IP56 and UFW and apply kernel settings. Reload. Verify. But this of course doesn't work because we didn't install git. Now verify the repo isn't compromised by trusting 900 random npm [music] dependencies. You don't dump production apps into home like crazy people. Then we fix the directories permissions. Why are they broken? And now we are done. We configure the systemd service. You know, system D is a controversial idea that hasn't been recognized. Okay. Now, make sure we're logging everything and then run your application security audit if it has one. I love it. I thought we did [music] security already. >> No. No. And now you have the setup with no public SSH, no public web ports, and server only reachable via tail scale. 98.1% uptime. And this was simple. >> Yes, this was the Ubuntu version. Now I can show you how you would do this on Arch by the way. >> No, no, no. Thank you. What VPS are you running it on? >> Oh, I'm just running it on an isolated bank Mini. >> What? Claude, give me a new agent. I don't like this agent.
