Open SUSE small-server 2017

Updated on March 14 2017

I have for more than 10 years a small server available from the net, as http and mail server for me and my family. This server was, long time ago, hosted on my own DSL line, being physically on an old laptop on my desk (headless - no monitor).

As of 2017 I have now a fiber connection at home, so I can have my server there. I plan to keep a very small one hosted (around 6e/month) and proxy and backup.
