How to Use

There is a Makefile to allow short commands for each playbook.

$ make setup

Used for setting the initial user, SSH keys and some personal scripts.

$ make deploy

Used to configure all the different services of the server

A couple of environment variables can be provided to change the settings of the task, like:

• TAGS: defines which services should be installed
• PLAYBOOK: defines which playbook to run
• LETSENCRYPT_FORCE_CERTIFICATES: defines if the Let's Encrypt certificates should be generated again
• ANSIBLE_OPTS: specify any other extra options
• ROOT: only for make setup, changes the port to be connected to (connects to port 22)

Email

Type: MX - Mail Exchange

Name: mail._domainkey
