I just setup a minecraft server on an old laptop, but to make it acessible i needed to open up a port. Currently, these are the ufw rules i have. when my friends want to connect, i will have them find their public ip and ill whilelist only them. is this secure enough? thanks

`Status: active

To Action From

22/tcp ALLOW Anywhere Anywhere ALLOW my.pcs.local.ip`

also, minecraft is installed under a separate user, without root privlege

    are you sharing a server solely to play with friends?

    You could consider using something like zerotier to create a private network

      I also use Zerotier for such cases. Not sure if you can somehow limit the ports they see, but works great in general
