Serverbox - Linux server management over SSH
Show HN: Linux server management over SSH – written in Rust and Tauri
Serverbox is a lightweight desktop app for managing Linux servers over SSH, written in Rust and Tauri. It offers live dashboards, a real terminal, file management, Docker, services, cron, users, and firewalls—all agentless, so you install nothing on your servers. Your credentials stay in an encrypted local vault, and it respects your distro, adapting to Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, openSUSE, Arch, Alpine, and more. With browser-style tabs, bastion support, and a calm, readable UI, Serverbox brings calm ops to your fleet.
Serverbox speaks plain SSH to your machines. Whatever works in your terminal works in Serverbox, presented as tools you can actually click.

Are you guys really letting a (as of now) non FOSS, presumably vibecoded app have access to your servers, presumably as root, as most people don't follow best practices?

Looks like TRUENAS if it was single-prompted. Also how will it know what my server runs if I install nothing on it? will my server just expose all information? I'm a bit confused why this was a design choice.

Every time I connect to my server I receive a Delivery Status Notification (Failure) email from my gmail address as if it tries to use my phpmailer to send an email to [email protected]
edit: the email comes from my website, when I connect a new user is created in my website with random name and that email address..
DOESN’T SEEM SAFE AT ALL!

What's the business model - and what guarantees are provided that Serverbox[0] won't rug pull after a seed round from Dillon-Edwards[1]?

The macOS installer is not notarized, and while adding an exception in Gatekeeper exists, not everyone would be willing to do that, especially currently when even the app source is unavailable.
