# Basic System Configuration
# -------------------------

# ### Install Packages

# Update system packages to make sure we have the latest upstream versions of things from Ubuntu.

echo Updating system packages...
hide_output apt-get update
hide_output apt-get -y upgrade

# Install basic utilities.
#
# * haveged: Provides extra entropy to /dev/random so it doesn't stall
#	         when generating random numbers for private keys (e.g. during
#	         ldns-keygen).
# * unattended-upgrades: Apt tool to install security updates automatically.
# * ntp: keeps the system time correct
# * fail2ban: scans log files for repeated failed login attempts and blocks the remote IP at the firewall

apt_install python3 python3-dev python3-pip \
	wget curl \
	haveged unattended-upgrades ntp fail2ban

# Allow apt to install system updates automatically every day.

# ### Firewall

# Various virtualized environments like Docker and some VPSs don't provide #NODOC
# a kernel that supports iptables. To avoid error-like output in these cases, #NODOC
# we skip this if the user sets DISABLE_FIREWALL=1. #NODOC
if [ -z "$DISABLE_FIREWALL" ]; then
	# Install `ufw` which provides a simple firewall configuration.
	apt_install ufw

	# Allow incoming connections to SSH.
	ufw_allow ssh;

	# ssh might be running on an alternate port. Use sshd -T to dump sshd's #NODOC
	# settings, find the port it is supposedly running on, and open that port #NODOC
	# too. #NODOC
	SSH_PORT=$(sshd -T 2>/dev/null | grep "^port " | sed "s/port //") #NODOC
	if [ ! -z "$SSH_PORT" ]; then
	if [ "$SSH_PORT" != "22" ]; then

	echo Opening alternate SSH port $SSH_PORT. #NODOC
	ufw_allow $SSH_PORT #NODOC

	fi
	fi

	ufw --force enable;
fi #NODOC

# ### Local DNS Service

# Install a local DNS server, rather than using the DNS server provided by the
# ISP's network configuration.
#
# We do this to ensure that DNS queries
# that *we* make (i.e. looking up other external domains) perform DNSSEC checks.
# We could use Google's Public DNS, but we don't want to create a dependency on
# Google per our goals of decentralization. `bind9`, as packaged for Ubuntu, has
# DNSSEC enabled by default via "dnssec-validation auto".
#
# So we'll be running `bind9` bound to 127.0.0.1 for locally-issued DNS queries
# and `nsd` bound to the public ethernet interface for remote DNS queries asking
# about our domain names. `nsd` is configured later.
#
# About the settings:
#
# * RESOLVCONF=yes will have `bind9` take over /etc/resolv.conf to tell
#   local services that DNS queries are handled on localhost.
# * Adding -4 to OPTIONS will have `bind9` not listen on IPv6 addresses
#   so that we're sure there's no conflict with nsd, our public domain
#   name server, on IPV6.
# * The listen-on directive in named.conf.options restricts `bind9` to
#   binding to the loopback interface instead of all interfaces.
apt_install bind9 resolvconf
tools/editconf.py /etc/default/bind9 \
	RESOLVCONF=yes \
	"OPTIONS=\"-u bind -4\""
if ! grep -q "listen-on " /etc/bind/named.conf.options; then
	# Add a listen-on directive if it doesn't exist inside the options block.
	sed -i "s/^}/\n\tlisten-on { 127.0.0.1; };\n}/" /etc/bind/named.conf.options
fi
if [ -f /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original ]; then
	echo "Archiving old resolv.conf (was /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original, now /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.original)." #NODOC
	mv /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.original #NODOC
fi

# Restart the DNS services.
