Adding a common service on Ubuntu/Debian OS

In order to add a service on boot, we are using our own CLI tool called servicectl.

It is as easy to use as :

sudo servicectl -e <service_name>

So for mariadb, it would be:

sudo servicectl -e mariadb

To get more information on how to use servicectl, you can always display the full help:

sudo servicectl -h
Usage:

      --enable, -e [service]         Enable a service
      --disable, -d [service]        Disable a service
      --start, -s                    Start all enabled services
      --list, -l                     List all enabled services
      --help, -h                     Display this help message

Default Opened Public Ports

__VPSmini ports are all blocked. __

The only exception are:

80
443 (SSL)
8080
8443 (SSL)

Another random port that is used for your VPSmini SSH

VPSmini is built for web application. You can install any application on it, though they will only be reachable from the server itself.

We cannot open any other port for your VPSmini, even on request.

To expose your other type of application, you can try something like cloudflare tunnel or ngrok to expose it using the opened public ports.
