Is there a way to log in to minepeon web page remotely? I have the port forwarded in my router, I enter my ip and then the username/password, but then nothing happens (if I was in my home network, it would ask me username/password again and then display the page)
You need to redirect the port 443... SSL connection... https://...
Can I change port 443 to another (5-digit) port? I don't want bots/hackers to try bruteforcing my credentials...
Changing the port isn't going to do
much anything if someone was trying to "hack" your your raspberryPi, that's why they have port scanners... an open port is an open port regardless of how safe you *think* it is.
It being on SSL (whether valid or not) encrypts traffic (to an extent) where you're not sending straight clear text all the time.
And as far as brute-force hacks go, if you're password is so weak that one can be brute-force hacked (in any given time frame of your life) then I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you should consider using a different password.
I good thing I like to tell people is, find a phrase that means something to them, go to an online md5 tool, type in the phrase and get the hash, whola password, for extra fun, find a split point in the hash, then take from that split point on and put it to the front, or get really fun with shit and mix in different hash strings
