I am felt up with my Game Service shared provider’s billing policies and I seriously trying to consider all options/help i might be able to get. Including trying to just rent a suitable VPS instead…
Does anybody know anything else that might help me runs Minetest gaming servers? Or anybody here who might be able help me sort this out?
Thanks you very much in advance!
Interesting, the docs are confusing though even in https://documentation.portainer.io/v2.0/deploy/ceinstalldocker/ it doesn’t seems to explains standalones clearly. I am confused if I would need both a “standalone” host or if I would need to also install the agent? If I do does the agent needs to installed on yet another VPS?
Documentation mentions that for Swarms (clusters) the agent is recommended. For standalone, which is most probably what you want I guess, the agent is not needed. So I guess :
docker volume create portainer_datadocker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9000:9000 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ceis all you need to do on your new VPS in order to get the web admin interface up.
Indeed, it does seems complicated to get a SSL going. As it doesn’t even seems like it will do a self sign by default?

Indeed now of days I don’t think certbot is that hard to run as you can tell it to do it as a temporary web server. So you can skip some steps. However I don’t know what to do with the cert once it been provisioned by Let’s Encrypt so that Portainer “can use it”.
https://wiki.debian.org/Self-Signed_Certificate ->
make-ssl-certis the name of the script to create a self signed SSL cert.That is also interesting but I am still confused on how would either Let’s Encrypt/this would be used so that Portainer can use these. Since it gotta be in a certain place right?
I’d like to check out how this works as I am curious about the options with Portainer.
Awesome seems good, thanks for the additional feedbacks so I am able to be made aware. :)
