Some questions about the GitLab

General
21

Hi,
Thanks again.
1- Can’t several users use the SSH protocol for Push or Pull at the same time?

2- So the settings in Hardening - Configuration Recommendations | GitLab have no conflict with the settings in Configure SSL for a Linux package installation | GitLab.

22

Yes they can, but the user they use to connect with is git@mygitlab.example.com providing they have uploaded an SSH key.

If it doesn’t mention the same settings then no. If it does, then potentially yes. If you want to apply just the certificate, change only the certificate entries. It is pretty self explanatory.

Hi,
Thanks again.
Does this mean that all GitLab server users use the git username to use the SSH protocol?

Please read the documentation, since pretty much all your questions are already answered there: Use SSH keys to communicate with GitLab | GitLab it shows a clear example of how to connect/test SSH access that specifies the git user.

We are not here to read the documentation for you :slight_smile:

Had you read that, it wouldn’t be necessary to ask that question. The first thing you should be doing before posting on the forum is reading the documentation first, and searching on the forum for posts that may already answer the question.

Open port for GitLab varies different on connection type:
SSH= 22
http= 80
https= 443

Hi,
Thanks again.
To increase security, is it recommended to change this default name?

It says clearly in the documentation that you linked:

In addition to that, changing it doesn’t make the slightest bit of difference. If you can only connect with an SSH key, unless one has been uploaded, nobody can connect.
