Initial Server Setup (iss.sh)
Initial Server Setup (iss.sh) by Amadex.com
How to run?
wget https://www.amadex.com/iss.sh && chmod +x iss.sh && ./iss.sh
This Bash script simplifies and automates initial server setup tasks on your Linux machine. The script allows you to change the root password, hostname, timezone, and SSH port. It can also create swap space, disable IPv6, and install common packages like nano, htop, curl, screen, and git. Additionally, it provides an option to run the Yet-Another-Bench-Script (YABS) for benchmarking.
After executing this script, remember to reboot the system to apply changes.

This... is neat. I am sure the possibilities are endless.
Thanks for sharing
You really should do some input checking in your script. I could say that I want timezone icecream and ssh port blue and the script would accept it. It would not have the desired effect when you reboot.
Nice...

Why not have it prompt the question/options at the end?
Hm, on slower VMs the YABS gets slow, so if the connection drops (or you do CTRL C) you can do your own reboot.

But YABS isn't mandatory, it's optional, so it might be worth adding the reboot question/option at the end.
Just a suggestion.
