Announcing my personal gemini site at gemini://edaha.org. Currently
running Jetforce as the server software.
First post is a guide on how I set up my server using free services
from Oracle's cloud offering. You can check it out here:

Hello there

Many thanks for that - this is a great guide for anyone wanting to set up a server in the cloud, and the Oracle offering seems quite generous. I've tried it out today and I can confirm the steps are very well described and it works fine.

But I found a couple of small bugs in your guide that you might want to fix:

1. Opening the VCN firewall,

Guide says: "Enter "1935" in the "Destination Port Range" input box"

This should be port 1965 not 1935 (typo)

2. SSH'ing into your Ubuntu instance and updating it

Connecting with PuTTY - need to use PuttyGen to import private PEM and generate ppk file. I couldnt get PuTTY to directly use the PEM files.

3. Setting up iptables

Guide says to use: sudo iptables-save

/etc/iptables/rules.v4

I got "permission denied" with that command

Instead this worked for me: sudo iptables-save -f /etc/iptables/rules.v4

Many thanks again - now I have another space to play in.
