Base Stack

Base Stack installs some basic applications and configs that are common to any server build. Specifically automatic updates and firewald with fail2ban for a secure server setup.

Requirements

A minimal Debian 12 server install with no extra services or packages installed.

Install

cd /usr/local/src/
git clone https://git.stack-source.com/msb/base-stack.git
cd base-stack
bash install.sh

MTA

For an integrated and full featured mail server configuration it's recommended to install vmail-stack: https://git.stack-source.com/msb/vmail-stack If you just want a minimal smtp mail server for getting automated emails (cron, website contact forms, etc.) off the server you can install and configure exim4-daemon-light with these commands:

apt -y install exim4-daemon-light mailutils
sed -i "s|dc_eximconfig_configtype='local'|dc_eximconfig_configtype='internet'|g" /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf
/usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf
systemctl restart exim4
echo "user@example.com" > /root/.forward
