    I would recommend donate to somewhere else :)

    LET can work on a small VPS. Donation is not needed.

    Give to children for example, or for protecting the planet (anti-pollution, forests, environment) :smiley:

    Is donating to school / foundation count? They provide free education / boarding school for orphan. Most of their income is from donation.

    It's hard to argue against helping disadvantaged kids :) <3

    Plenty of VPS still available!

    It seems people don't like to contribute to a good cause, and get a free VPS at the same time. I was wrong thinking this would finish in just a couple of hours with a low bar.

    Come on people, donate something, anything. This is LET, and such good offers should not go to waste.

    people don't wanna donate a lot, but when donating a dollar or two they feel bad cuz they don't want to be precived as the one that's doing it only for the vps

    It does not matter. Nobody is here to judge an act of good will, no matter how small it is. A donation is still a donation, and that is all that matters within a Low-End community.

    My donation was $25.
    The tax bracket I'm in allows me to get back 100% of my donations in federal tax returns (I don't know the annual limit but it's at least $100).
    There's no need for $1 donations.

    A few years ago, my former roommate, who has left the country, asked me to sell his old computer.
    It's a 6-year-old bulky DELL all-in-one that nobody wants, and he demanded no less than $200.
    I told him that the only way to get $200 is donating the computer and getting the money back via state tax returns, and he agreed.
    Thus, I took the computer to our maker space, and got him a $250 tax deductible receipt.
    Good luck for him to generate $250 of Arizona state income tax in the next 7 years, while he does not live in Arizona.

    @adly said: There should be an annual charity drive - similar to Black Friday but VPS for donation - much better than give away for nothing. Thanks for starting this @FAT32.

    We've done charity auctions in the past:

    Kind of feel bad because I can't use my eWallet for bigger donation, but still happy to help the site that taught me better than my instructors.

    Ps. Thanks a lot by reminding me to give something to the most useful tool I ever used. I've been planning to donate long time ago but I keep forgetting about it!

    In less than three months, I accidentally the server that I received in this offer.

    Last week, I decided to retire my 10-year-old ssh-rsa key, and created a short and sweet ssh-ed25519 key.
    I wanted to install it onto all the servers, so I did:

    ssh box7 sh -c "echo ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIHjRzRwQeqqjbeNh2vTjuCfuzU0jhrFHMWm/KP/xmlrF sunny-20211030 > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
    

    I thought this command would replace the authorized public key, but it actually emptied the authorized_keys files, and I can't SSH into the server again.

    By the time I discover this, it's too late.
    SSH password authentication is disabled, so I had to fix each of my 15 servers over VNC.

    The correct command should have been:

    ssh box7 "echo ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIHjRzRwQeqqjbeNh2vTjuCfuzU0jhrFHMWm/KP/xmlrF sunny-20211030 > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
    

    Yeah, SSH itself supports shell redirection if I write the command in quotes.
    Adding another sh -c achieves the opposite.

    For unknown reason, I cannot login to Virtualizor with my password.
    I tried password reset, but never got the email.
    Therefore, I cannot fix this server.

    Now, this server is up and ping-able, shows green on UptimeRobot.
    There's no service deployed and no ports open other than SSH.
    I can ping but cannot login.
    It will idle until it expires next year.

    any reason to manually echoing new key to authorized_keys file instead of just using ssh-copy-id command?

    The intention was to insert the new public key and erase the old public key in one step.

    Seems like I missed your PM. I did created your account earlier but due to how Virtualizor handles authentication it doesn't work. Fixed for you.
