So you just randomly type in what people tell you without checking what it does?

 

[Thor]

Before I enable this firewall just tell me if this is fine?

I added SSH port
web port
SSL port
mail port





I do not need anything else open do I? Wait. What is FTP, port 21?

"The mysql_install_db command is deprecated as of MySQL 5.7.6. If you're using version 5.7.6 or later, you should use mysqld --initialize instead."

It seems fine? Although it feels like it needs more configuration or is that just me?

 

[Thor]

To install the latest PHP can I just change the numbers?

The Digital Ocean stuff is out of date:

sudo apt-get install php5-fpm php5-mysql

 

[Thor]

Nevermind I have a new link

What you should do is actually create a load balancer in front of your stack, don't expose web servers to the public. Let the balancer have access to a private IP range and proxy and elect servers to route traffic.

Define "best"?

Best at easy maintenance? Probably.
