What to do after installation?
Hello,
I've just installed my first VestaCP (actually, it was Pre-Installed with my OVH VPS).
Everything works fine, web, mail etc.
Since the panel was installed directly with the installation of the VPS, what should I do next (that has not been done between VPS installation and VestaCP installation).
Now, I've just apt-get update/upgrade. Should I disable root authentification etc.
What is your checklist after a fresh installation?
Thank you for your help.

Re: What to do after installation?
Well... Use it, I guess?
Create some sites, have fun
But besides that, it's always a good idea to disable root or use key authentication instead of password
Maybe general server security checkup would be good
I have not used the pre-installed version of Vesta from OVH yet, so I don't know what they do and what they don't do with the security and what practices they use
