Introduction

✨ This is my Linux setup and dotfiles. Feel free to use it 🚀🚀🚀.

Warning

• This is the setting for my personal laptop. It may be different if used for a PC or other devices.
• Be careful when copy all settings unless you know what that entails, just read information in detail for each repository.

📝 Basically, I use:

🪐 EndeavourOS

• Download ISO file.
• Dual boots with Ventoy.

🤯 Cosmic - Desktop Environment.

🛠️ yay - Arch Linux AUR helper tool.

• With yay you can easily install, update and manage your packages.
• Here is an example when using yay to install VS Code.

🥳 Many thanks to my colleagues at NDVN for inspiring me and guiding me towards Linux. You guys are amazing and kind.

Setup Docker

Public Port

1. Find Your Local IP Address

Other devices on your network will need your computer's local IP address. Open your terminal and use either ip a or ifconfig (if you have net-tools installed):

ip a

Example output:

2: enp0s31f6: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000
  link/ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  inet 192.168.1.100/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute enp0s31f6
  valid_lft 86241sec preferred_lft 86241sec

In this example, your IP is 192.168.1.100.

2. Configure firewalld to Allow Incoming Connections

1. Start and Enable firewalld service (if not already running): First, confirm the firewalld service is running and enabled to start on boot:

   sudo systemctl status firewalld

   If it's not running or not enabled, use:

   sudo systemctl enable firewalld --now

2. Determine your active zone: firewalld uses zones to define trust levels. Common zones are public, home, internal. To see which zone your enp4s0 interface is assigned to:

   sudo firewall-cmd --get-active-zones

   You will likely see public or home associated with your enp4s0 interface. Let's assume it's public for the next steps.

3. Add the port to your active zone: You need to permanently add the port 5173 (TCP) to the zone your enp4s0 interface is in. Replace your-active-zone with the actual zone name (e.g., public, home).

   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=your-active-zone --add-port=5173/tcp

   For example, if your active zone is public:

   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=5173/tcp

4. Reload firewalld to apply changes:

   sudo firewall-cmd --reload

5. Verify the rule: You can list the ports allowed in your zone to confirm the rule was added:

   sudo firewall-cmd --zone=your-active-zone --list-ports

   You should see 5173/tcp in the output.
