📦 New Release: All About Security 🛡️

📦 New Release, and the theme is all about leverage security 🛡️ measures:

SSH Port

Now you can use the port property under the ssh object, to define the SSH port of the server. Per default, the SSH port is 22. This helps a lot, to avoid hackers to bruteforce your server.

SSH Key

With the keyfolder property, you can define the location of your SSH public and private key on your local machine.

Fail2Ban

Fail2Ban is an intrusion prevention software framework that protects computer servers from brute-force attacks. With the property bantime you can define the ban time in seconds. With the property maxretry you can define the max retry.

If maxretry is reached, the IP is banned for the defined time (bantime).

Breaking Changes:

In the minectl 🗺 config files, we introduced a ssh object now. Please fix your config files for this change.

apiVersion: minectl.ediri.io/v1alpha1
kind: MinecraftServer
metadata:
  name: minecraft-server
spec:
  server:
...
    ssh:
      port: 22 | or your custom port
      keyfolder: "<path to ssh public and private key>/ssh"
      fail2ban:
        bantime: "<ban time in seconds>"
        maxretry: "<max retry>"
    port: 25565
  minecraft:
...
