 +===== Open Ports =====
 +
 +On your firewall/NAT/whatever, you need ports <code>21114,21115,21116,21117,21118,21119</code> open and forwarded to the Rust Server. Additionally, to use the webui, you will need to open a port for that.
 +
 +Following table shows what the ports are used for.
 +
 +^Port   ^Purpose                ^Protocol^Notes^
 +| 21114 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP     | Default port for API (not required)         |
 +| 21115 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP/UDP | Default port for the RustDesk server.       |
 +| 21116 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP/UDP | Used for client connections to the server.  |
 +| 21117 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP/UDP | Additional port for server communication.   |
 +| 21118 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP/UDP | Another port for server communication.      |
 +| 21119 | HBBS (RustDesk server) | TCP/UDP | Used for additional server functionalities. |
 +| 80 | HTTP (optional fallback) | TCP | Commonly allowed port for web traffic; can be used for fallback. |
 +| 443 | HTTPS (optional fallback) | TCP | Secure web traffic; can be used for fallback   |

-===== Optional Steps =====+===== Set automatic log rotate =====
  
-The script that techahold wrote will ask permission, then automatically install a lightweight web server and create customized installers for Windows and Linux. I'm not going into that here, but it is pretty straightforward. Another github user, dinger1986, has install scripts for [[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dinger1986/rustdeskinstall/master/WindowsAgentAIOInstall.ps1|Microsoft Windows]] and many flavors of [[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dinger1986/rustdeskinstall/master/linuxclientinstall.sh|Linux]] (not Devuan, unfortunately).+Your logs can get quite large, so it is best to rotate them occassional. Devuan uses the logrotate script to do this for, and it is fairly simple to add a new definition in /etc/logrotate.d for the next pass.
  
-Basically, you can download those scripts and run the following commands on them. Then, make them available to your users who can run them on their computer and have RustDesk Client installed on their computer, already set up for your server.+Following command will create the definition. It will rotate the hbbr/hbbs logs daily, keeping two weeks of logs. All logs except for the current one and the previous one will be compressed.
  
-Download and edit the following file. Change your.url.or.ip to the URL or IP of your new server, and change contents_of_public_key_file_on_your_server to the contents of /opt/rustdesk/id_ed25519.pub. When done, you will have two files, //WindowsAgentAIOInstall.ps1//, which can be run with Windows Power Shell, and //linuxclientinstall.sh// which can be run from the command line on a Linux machine.+This is just one command. Just copy and paste it anywhere into the server.
