Long time lurker here. Though I do appreciate the work you all do to
keep gopher going.
I am thinking of running a gopher server on a VPS I have with Linode.
I wanted to gauge all your guy's opinions about how secure it would be
to host a gopher server on a VPS that also had web sites. What I am
getting at is do you think modern gopher servers are secure enough or
should I isolate it to its own VPS? I understand nothings truly secure,
I have a firewall set up, I monitor traffic and the like. Just
general thoughts you might want to share.
Warmest regards,
J. R. Johnstone

Agreed. I personally use both sdfeu.org <http://sdfeu.org> and my
own gopher server which is running pygopherd on a raspbery pi.
Super simple to set up and the pi can handle the load with ease.
