I just setup a minecraft server on an old laptop, but to make it acessible i needed to open up a port. Currently, these are the ufw rules i have. when my friends want to connect, i will have them find their public ip and ill whilelist only them. is this secure enough? thanks

`Status: active

To Action From


22/tcp ALLOW Anywhere Anywhere ALLOW my.pcs.local.ip`

also, minecraft is installed under a separate user, without root privlege

    Got it, I’m aware password auth can be brute forced, sadly many services don’t support more advanced auth methods so I’ve got a couple homelab apps that can only do password auth. I’m using very strong passwords and 2FA where available, and have been looking into an SSO solution like Authentik, but again not all services are supported.
