Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Your services would first of all need some sort of integration to report failed authentication attempts to your firewall or you wouldn't have anything to act on to start the block. Sounds complicated edit: and also what fail2ban does by reading logs it seems.
If I were you I would ponder if it wouldn't be easier to just setup a headscale/wireguard/openvpn server and connect to your other services through that.
My favourite home firewall right now would be opnsense
I fuess I can get that info from most services vy parsing their logs.
When using a vpn server, only I could access the services right?
Isnt opnsense only for bsd? I am running linux.
opnsense is bsd based yes, you can either run it on it's own hardware in front of your server or you can run it as a virtual machine and passthrough your hosts network ports to it for WAN/LAN.
You can easily setup vpn users for friends/family but a random person on the internet won't reach your services if you block access from WAN and forces everyone to go through the vpn server.
