All:

I am looking for advice on how to secure my calibre service.

What I want is pretty basic - to have calibre on a public internet site - my private virtual server - so that my wife and I can access my library and books anywhere I have internet access.

The issue I have is that I don't want to allow everyone access either to my catalog or to the contents of my library. I could, theoretically, run the calibre server with the --password option but the fundamental problem is that the password is passed on the command line which means it is visible in the process table. Not something I'm comfortable with.

So, how are others securing their calibre server?

Thanks in advance,
