Replace "jaileduser" with whatever you want the username to be.

Step 1 (as root) - Setup chroot environment and user. Replace fish in the last command with whatever shell you want.

sudo su - 
mkdir --parents /home/jaileduser/home
useradd --create-home --gid users --home /home/jaileduser/home/jaileduser jaileduser
usermod --home /home/jaileduser jaileduser
mkdir --parents /{etc/jail/jaileduser,var/jail/jaileduser/{cache/{key,pkg},lib}}
chown jaileduser:users /var/jail/jaileduser/cache/key

Setup full disk encryption using LVM on LUKS (single drive) with remote SSH for an already setup/running Raspbian stretch system. Using this guide there is no need to connect a screen or keyboard to the rpi at any stage since we will setup remote SSH at the same time (at present no other guides available tell you that this is possible).

1. Backup SD card

To be safe, backup SD card (using another computer is easiest in my case): sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/<rpi_sdcard> | gzip > rpibackup.img.gz or use my fish shell function.

2. Install LUKS dependencies and reboot

Am using a samba share on Ubuntu 16.04 server, and wanted to enable Samba traffic in ufw using sudo ufw allow from 192.168.8.0/24 to any app Samba comment 'allow samba from local' which returned the error "ERROR: Could not find a profile matching 'Samba'".

Cause: I was using the minimal amount of tooling required to use Samba (cifs-tools) on my server, which doesn't include the Samba application file.

Fix: install the samba package... or manually create the file:

sudoedit /etc/ufw/applications.d/samba

[Samba]
title=LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix

1. Install acme.sh shell script

git clone https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh.git
cd acme.sh
./acme.sh --install

Optionally, set the home dir and/or account info (if already have one).
If was previously using LetsEncrypt's certbot, can probably get account info from /etc/letsencrypt/accounts/acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory/*/regr.json.

My notes on how I setup OpenVPN server on Edgerouter Lite. Based mostly on this guide from openVPN wiki. This guide assumes easyrsa3 is being used, otherwise substitute whatever the easyrsa2 versions are for the commands below.

This guide will use 3 different machines.

A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) will be created on each machine:

• 1. Server - openVPN server (Edgerouter in this case).
• 2. Client(s) - the device(s) you will be connecting from.
• 3. CA Server - used to generate and sign certificates for server and clients to use.

Use the script from here.

automatic dkms module installer for patched alx

This is a quick and dirty setup that will automatically setup the dkms module for your specific kernel version.
This will only work on debian/ubuntu and other derivates and requires dkms and patch to be setup already.

The setup uses sudo and thus you are asked for your password once.
It will then attempt to download your kernels source, copy and patch the alx related files and place a "alx-" in your /usr/src directory, enable and compile the module and finally rebuild your initrd.
Currently the the very first compilation somehow fails, thats why it's run twice.
