Let all requests that link to acme-challenge directory files be linked to a specific folder.

Apache
Represents all websites, if the folder opens /.well-known/acme-challenge/, it will open the directory I specified /home/nginx/acme- challenge/.well-known/acme-challenge/

Alias ​​/.well-known/acme-challenge/ "/home/nginx/acme -challenge/.well-known/acme-challenge/"

Nginx
Represents the web page connection /.well-known/acme-challenge/, The root directory of the website is /home/nginx/acme-challenge

location ^~ /.well-known/acme-challenge/ {
    default_type "text/plain";
    root /home/nginx/acme-challenge;
}

Some people may be curious about what to do with this, I will roughly explain my situation, super old host, no Docker can not install HAProxy or certbo, only apache and nginx.
But I need to automatically apply for and update the certificate on the host, so I let the host mount the folder on another host that can run the certbot program through NFS, and let the verification file generated by him be generated directly In the /home/nginx/acme-challenge/.well-known/acme-challenge/ directory on the old host,
the webpage can be successfully verified and the certificate can be obtained.

When there are a lot of vhosts, you can all eat the same folder, instead of creating a directory for each vhost website.

Raspberry Pi fail2ban installation notes

My mainframe basically has remote logs set up, and all of them are sent to the log center on the Synology NAS. Among them, there is a Raspberry Pi that is used as a router, and there will be a bunch of sshd verification attempts to log in. Basically, I only allow public key verification, so I don’t want to use passwords to brute force it, but a bunch of logs of verification failures are really good. Hate.
