Install Ubuntu Server

This guide assumes that the server is a plain-vanilla installation of Ubuntu Server. You can select the option to install OpenSSH Server during the installation wizard or follow the instructions below to install it post-installation. This guide assumes that you did not select any of the Featured Server Snaps during installation.

Post Installation

Once installation is complete run update and upgrade to ensure that you have the latest version of the server installed along with all of its patches.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Install OpenSSH Server

These days everything should be done over SSH. Install the server so that you can connect to it using this standard protocol rather than FTP or RDP.

sudo apt install -y openssh-server

Install GIT

If you will be editing or developing anything in this server, install GIT. GIT is the source control tool of choice.

sudo apt install -y git

Install the Lynx browser

Lynx is a command-line browser. This guide assumes that you are installing Ubuntu server without a GUI, therefore you will need lynx to browse the web or to browse sites on this server (e.g., localhost).

sudo apt install -y lynx
