The main Protospace Wordpress website is found at https://protospace.ca

How to edit sections of the website

Editing

You can ask Alan, Andrea, Murray, Emrah, Gregg L, Greg M, Ian, Pat, or Tanner to edit the website for you.

Or request a Wordpress account from the Directors.

Log into Wordpress at https://protospace.ca/wp-admin

Edit the pages or sections you'd like following the guide to the right.

Technical Info

The website is hosted on a DigitalOcean VPS managed by Tanner. The same one that's running this Wiki and the MQTT broker.

The website files and database is automatically backed up weekly offsite and offline by Tanner.

webhost:

  • 1 GB Memory / 25 GB Disk
  • Debian GNU/Linux 10
  • floating IP: 104.248.105.181 (use this one)
  • actual IP: 142.93.156.31
  • private IP: 10.118.0.2

Recovering Access

In the unlikely event that Tanner kicks the bucket, recover access like so:

  1. Get Emrah to ssh eatil@protospace.ca

If that doesn't work:

  1. Get the directors@protospace.ca DigitalOcean credentials from LastPass
  2. Log into DigitalOcean
  3. Select Droplets > webhost
  4. Select Access > Reset root password
  5. A new root password will be emailed to directors@protospace.ca
  6. Open the web console under the green ON button (not Recovery Console)
  7. Log in as root
  8. Find someone that knows Debian / Ubuntu Linux
  9. Create a Linux user, add your public key, edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config AllowUsers
