Very nice walkthrough.
Especially the IPtables section.
It’s usually easy to configure the server – quite another thing to achieve connectivity!
thanks!

Although you can set the time by running ntp in a cron job, this is seriously not recommended for anything but a simple home setup.

For anything setup for work-related services, rather set the time through the NTP service. This will skew the time in a safer way than making a big time change in case the time has gone completely out since the last cron run.
