  • It depends where you want the complexity.

    Since ssh is a layer4 tunnel if you don’t run a proxy on your home box, you’ll need a new network connection for each service, if you are fine with that, I would set it up only on the VPS. This means if the tunnel goes down, you should at least get 502 error rather than a timeout or connection refused.

    Alternatively you could forward 80, 443 to a proxy service on the home server. That would require two ports for the ssh.

    You can drop it to a single ssh connection by having a proxy on both and just have the VPS proxy Http and https to the same port on the home server.











  • No, that is not what it means. i386 is specifically the set of instructions that the 386 introduced. Later processors from intel added additional instructions, those were rolled into i686 as a set. i686 contains i386 so it can still run programs that target that, but a 386 can’t run a i686 program.

    i386 and i686 are both x86 32 bit instruction sets.

    What is happening is that the kernel will no longer support i386 as a target. So any processor that does not support at least i686 will stop working. This is basically anything before around a pentium 3 (iirc might be wrong about exact CPU.) Vista era computers should not be effected.

    The confusing part is that some distros have already dropped all 32bit for other reasons, but it would mean it would be hard for distros going forward to support 386 era processors.
