standup interactsh server on aws ami linux

1. stand up a domain. In this case, I'll use digiarch.net since I own this and use it for nothing.

2. stand up an ami linux server. Configure the SG to allow the following inbound (letsencrypt also uses the DNS):

   • tcp 25: SMTP
   • udp 53: DNS
   • tcp 80: HTTP
   • tcp 443: HTTPS

blazor

why?

I know c# and always had trouble spending the time to learn full web framework and all the internals of making a web site. This didn't stop me from having ideas for sites, even easy sites.

This is my write up for notes extending the MSFT blazor tutorial: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/learn/aspnet/blazor-tutorial/run

cautions

• when attempting to dotnet run the blazor site, I discovered kestral (whatever that is) wouldn't bind to tcp port 5000, as noted in ./BlazorApp/Properties/launchsettings.json.
