# How to self-host hardened Borg server
## Requirements
- [Hardened Debian server](../how-to-configure-hardened-debian-server) 📦
- Linux or macOS computer
## Caveats
- When copy/pasting commands that start with `$`, strip out `$` as this character is not part of the command
- When copy/pasting commands that start with `cat << "EOF"`, select all lines at once (from `cat << "EOF"` to `EOF` inclusively) as they are part of the same (single) command
## Setup guide
### Step 1: create `borg` SSH key pair (on computer)
When asked for file in which to save key, enter `borg`.
When asked for passphrase, use output from `openssl rand -base64 24` (and store passphrase in password manager).
```console
$ mkdir -p ~/.ssh
$ cd ~/.ssh
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "borg"
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/sunknudsen/.ssh/id_rsa): borg
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in borg.
Your public key has been saved in borg.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:b4YxePgBjP9hB/wPFz7MkzM5fDYEBtbtOBd7kxRTicY borg
The key's randomart image is:
+---[RSA 3072]----+

| . + o =o=+o.|
| + S + #o+..|

$ cat borg.pub

```
### Step 2: create `borg-append-only` SSH key pair (on computer)
When asked for file in which to save key, enter `borg-append-only`.
When asked for passphrase, leave field empty for no passphrase.
```console
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "borg-append-only"
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/sunknudsen/.ssh/id_rsa): borg-append-only
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in borg-append-only.
Your public key has been saved in borg-append-only.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:xR8BvPMujEM955VubA/TWVlqt/Nt2INNX4UIw3wtssw borg-append-only
The key's randomart image is:
+---[RSA 3072]----+

$ cat borg-append-only.pub
ssh-rsa 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 borg-append-only
```
### Step 3: generate SSH authorized keys heredoc (on computer)
#### Set temporary environment variable
```shell
BORG_STORAGE_QUOTA="10G"
```
#### Generate heredoc (the output of following command will be used at [step 8](#create-homeborgsshauthorized_keys-using-heredoc-generated-at-step-2))
```shell
cat << EOF
cat << _EOF > /home/borg/.ssh/authorized_keys
command="borg serve --restrict-to-repository /home/borg/backup --storage-quota $BORG_STORAGE_QUOTA",restrict $(cat ~/.ssh/borg.pub)
command="borg serve --append-only --restrict-to-repository /home/borg/backup --storage-quota $BORG_STORAGE_QUOTA",restrict $(cat ~/.ssh/borg-append-only.pub)
_EOF
EOF
```
### Step 4: log in to server
Replace `185.112.147.115` with IP of server.
```shell
ssh server-admin@185.112.147.115 -i ~/.ssh/server
```
### Step 5: switch to root
When asked, enter root password.
```shell
su -
```
### Step 6: create `borg` user
When asked for password, use output from `openssl rand -base64 24` (and store password in password manager).
All other fields are optional, press <kbd>enter</kbd> to skip them and then press <kbd>Y</kbd>.
```console
$ adduser borg
Adding user `borg' ...
Adding new group `borg' (1000) ...
Adding new user `borg' (1000) with group `borg' ...
Creating home directory `/home/borg' ...
Copying files from `/etc/skel' ...
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully
Changing the user information for borg
Enter the new value, or press ENTER for the default
Full Name []:
Room Number []:
Work Phone []:
Home Phone []:
Other []:
Is the information correct? [Y/n] Y
```
### Step 7: update APT index
```shell
apt update
```
### Step 8: install [Borg](https://github.com/borgbackup/borg)
```shell
apt install -y borgbackup
```
### Step 9: configure borg SSH authorized keys
#### Create `.ssh` folder
```shell
mkdir -p /home/borg/.ssh
```
#### Create `/home/borg/.ssh/authorized_keys` using heredoc generated at [step 2](#generate-heredoc-the-output-of-following-command-will-be-used-at-step-8)
```shell
cat << _EOF > /home/borg/.ssh/authorized_keys

#### Change ownership of `/home/borg/.ssh`
```
chown -R borg:borg /home/borg/.ssh
```
