Hi, my current setup is the following

Windows server pc with hyperV (it’s a weird choice I know but I wanted to experiment with stuff I’m also using at work) hosting some VMs:

  • OPNSense (doing dhcp server)
  • owncloud (personal cloud)
  • pihole

Till yesterday I had a fix public IP to reach my owncloud via port forwarding from my work laptop and as well my two desktop (outside my network)

Can you suggest a more secure way of doing it? Any general other suggestion to make my setup better?

Thank you

PS: i have no budget constrain but I’m usually not prompt to waste money :D

    It has been a while since I setup my wireguard server, if you host it on a linux system It can be easy as:

    • Install wireguard on your system
    • generate private/public key
    • create a wireguard config file with iptables rules
    • net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 on your server (yeah very important part)
    • open the wireguard UDP port on your router
    • configure clients

    The first time you delve into, it can be Intimidating (at that time I was a total CLI/linux noob) if you are a beginner, but I think you will easily find your way :)

    This tutorial seems rather complete and easy to follow with comments. Also, if you didn’t know, do not blindly copy/past the commands from the web directly in your CLI.
