Admin Account Security Best Practices?

[bobbysmith]

Thanks to you all for taking the time as these are helpful responses.

So, it looks like 2FA is always a good idea, and if all goes south at least I have SSH access. Makes sense.

Also,

@JimPas

The ‘system’ is the forum software. When you set up your forum you did set up an account for yourself, didn’t you?

You are absolutely correct. I did set up an Admin and I was posting from that, not from system. My mistake.

@riking

That’s not correct, you can log in by username.

Does anyone know if you can change a setting to NOT allow username logins (ie. and require email)?

Thanks again.
