Habe eben einen zweiten Debianserver bestellt, der dann lediglich für die Backups zuständig ist.
I just ordered a second Debian server, which will then be solely responsible for backups.
Sobald er verfügbar ist Folgendes:


1. Grundinstallation prüfen
• Debian aktuell
• SSH sicher
• keine unnötigen Dienste
2. Backup-Ziel vorbereiten
• Benutzer nur für Backups
• Speicherstruktur sauber anlegen
• Zugriffsrechte korrekt setzen

3. Borg-Repository einrichten
• verschlüsselt
• stabil
• bereit für automatische Rotation

4. Verbindung vom Grid-Server testen
• SSH-Key
• erster Test-Backup
• Wiederherstellung probeweise prüfen

Erst, wenn alles sauber funktioniert,
kommt der letzte Schritt:

5. Vollautomatik nachts per Cron
→ komplett selbstständig
→ kein Eingreifen nötig
→ ruhige, sichere Backups für Dorenas World.


As soon as it's available, here's what I'll do:

1. Check the basic installation
• Debian up to date
• Secure SSH
• No unnecessary services
2. Prepare the backup destination
• Users dedicated to backups
• Create a clean storage structure
• Set access rights correctly

3. Set up the Borg repository
• Encrypted
• Stable
• Ready for automatic rotation

4. Test the connection from the Grid server
• SSH key
• First test backup
• Test the restore process

Only when everything is working perfectly will I proceed to the final step:

5. Full automation at night via cron
→ Completely autonomous
→ No intervention required
→ Quiet, secure backups for Dorena's World.

Cozy Comforts Rentals – Community Guidelines

Welcome to our adult community. We want this space to feel relaxed, respectful and enjoyable for everyone. By renting an apartment, skybox or parcel, you agree to the following guidelines.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adult Environment

This is an adult region. Avatars must clearly represent adults (18+). Any appearance or roleplay suggesting minors is not permitted. This topic is taken seriously to protect the community and the region.

Escorting activities require prior approval from management. If you have any questions, please contact Aphra Hendrix or Cinzana Versace.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Parcel & Design

You are welcome to personalize your rented space and garden to reflect your style. We simply ask that the overall exterior appearance of the property remains harmonious.

Please avoid building structures that exceed the height or size of the surrounding buildings. Tall trees may be possible, but should be approved in advance.

Please note that parcel protection systems may not function reliably above approximately 100 meters.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rights for Tenants of Parcels

Apartments and Skyboxes have no rezz rights. Sad, but true, there were renters installing harming scripts. Private parcels allow up to 444 prims per rental area and are reserved for friends.

The tenant can deed the parcel to a group and share with friends and family. You can close your own parcel and only let people on access list in. You can use your own radio stations. You can make yourself invisible from outside. Being an owner has many advantages. Also you are allowed to build skyboxes over 800 meters, but stay within your general prim limit of 444 Prims.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Automated Systems

Please do not install systems that automatically address visitors, distribute landmarks or notecards, ask unsolicited questions, or create the impression that you are the owner of the region.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Shared Spaces

Feel free to enjoy the adult furniture in public areas such as beaches or community houses. These areas are meant for everyone to relax and connect respectfully.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Respect & Cooperation

Our goal is cooperation, not punishment. If a rule is overlooked, we will address it together. Continued disregard of the guidelines may lead to loss of parcel rights.

We appreciate your understanding and your contribution to a welcoming, enjoyable community atmosphere.

Hallo,
Weihnachten naht, denkt über eure Bestellungen nach.

Man sagt mir, Weihnachten sei vorbei.
Aber das ist nicht möglich, na ja, Pech gehabt.
Blöder Kalender!

Just a heads up that the E Grid will be Offline Weds, Thurs and Fri of this week - (the 18th, 19th, and 20th) for some server upgrades.

We've just completed a full backup and that took 3 days, but didn't need to go offline.

This time it will be easier, if the Grid is down.

Should be back up by Sat Morning!

Ein donnerndes Echo aus Montevideo: Die Ära von Trotsky Vengarán

Es ist das Jahr 1991 in Montevideo, Uruguay. Die Luft in den Hinterhöfen der Stadt ist geschwängert von Aufbruchsstimmung und dem unbändigen Drang, laut zu sein. Inmitten dieser Kulisse formiert sich eine Gruppe, die das musikalische Gesicht Südamerikas nachhaltig prägen sollte. Trotsky Vengarán – ein Name, der wie ein Peitschenknall durch die Gassen hallt.

Liebe Haifischbartänzer und Musikzuhörer,
die nächste Musikalische Rumpelkiste wird angeliefert und morgen, Dienstag den 17. Februar ab 20:00 Uhr ausgepackt. Und wenn es auch Faschingsdienstag ist - keine Bange es gibt KEINE Fachingsmusik (oder vielleicht doch???). Ab 19:30 gibts unmoderierte Vormusik - also kommet zuhauf - wir freuen uns auf Euch alle.

Dear Sharkbeard Dancers and Music Lovers,
the next Musical Junk Box is being delivered and will be unpacked tomorrow, Tuesday, February 17th, starting at 8:00 PM. And even though it's Shrove Tuesday – don't worry, there will be NO Carnival music (or maybe there will???). From 7:30 PM onwards, there will be unmoderated pre-show music – so come one, come all – we're looking forward to seeing you all.

Art Of Noise - Die Architekten des künstlichen Klangs

In den kühlen, technisch versierten Korridoren der frühen 1980er Jahre formierte sich ein Kollektiv, das die Grenzen zwischen Musik und reiner Akustik einreißen sollte. Art of Noise war niemals eine gewöhnliche Band; sie war ein Experiment, eine klangliche Provokation und die Geburtsstunde dessen, was wir heute als modernes Sampling verstehen.

Alaaf, Helau und haltet eure Hüte fest – der Karneval ist los!
Heute wird's beim Lumpenball herrlich chaotisch.
Ab 20:00 Uhr drehen DJ Kai und Plattenschubse Marina so richtig auf – musikalisch irgendwo zwischen „Oh nein, nicht das Lied!“ und „Geil, mach lauter!“.
Kommt wie ihr seid, verkleidet euch wie ihr wollt –
Hauptsache, ihr seid dabei, wenn wir die Hütte zum Wackeln bringen.
Taxi: timegrid.de:8002:clubtime

Samba, Sonne, Sangria – wir drehen komplett durch! 🎉🌴
Achtung, Achtung!
Die Hüften werden geölt, die Gläser gefüllt und der Alltag bekommt Hausverbot!

Heute verwandelt sich Tosca in das heißeste Stück Brasilien nördlich des Äquators. Wenn selbst Rio de Janeiro neidisch rüberschaut und der Geist vom Karneval Samba in unsere Beine fährt, dann weißt du:
👉 Es ist Samba-Party-Time!
💃 Dresscode:
Alles, was glitzert, federt, klimpert oder beim Tanzen gefährlich wackelt.
(Je mehr Farbe, desto besser – Papagei-Level ist ausdrücklich erlaubt.)
🥁 Musik:
Samba, Latin Beats, Karnevals-Vibes und alles, was die Hüften schneller schwingen lässt als dein WLAN.
🍹 Getränke:
Caipirinha bis die Limetten Angst bekommen.
Sangria, die dich plötzlich Portugiesisch sprechen lässt.
Und natürlich genug Wasser… für die ganz Vernünftigen. (Also niemanden.)
⚠️ Warnung:
Es kann zu spontanen Polonaisen, unkontrollierbarem Hüftschwung und lauten „Olé!“-Rufen kommen.
Haftung wird nicht übernommen – besonders nicht für peinliche Tanzmoves am nächsten Morgen.
Also schnapp dir deine Lieblingsmenschen, bring gute Laune mit und lass uns feiern, bis selbst die Sonne Samba tanzt! 🌞🔥

Wer nicht kommt, muss den nächsten Caipi ausgeben! 🍹😉
