Once you have configured your server to your needs, disable access to the server manager from the red network by going to security → network services → httpd-admin and edit to disable access from the outside world.
Then add your home/office IP as a trusted network so only you can access the server manager. Go to security → trusted networks and add your home/office IP and subnet.
I cannot "add your home/office IP as a trusted network ", because my home IP is a dynamically assigned IP.
I would probably have to create a LAN on the green interface and dial in via a VPN. I have no other idea.
But I will put that on hold until everything else runs smoothly.

Create a dummy Green interface is mandatory.
For accessing services, if you need only 1 computer to access NethServer OpenVPN is a quite fast setup; otherwise, IPSec allows better interoperability between NethServer and other devices like routers or firewalls.
Unless your home firewall is a Nethserver installation…
Sounds great. But currently I’m trying to understand how to get mail to run and set up a Wordpress installation.
I have done this many times in the past, but this knowledge is of no use to me now.
Back to the topic… Installation of Wordpress was finally quite easy. I do not know why I had difficulties.
The next step would be to get the mail server productive.

Follow up:
The WordPress-Installation with 3 different databases (WordPress, webtrees, Matomo) works fine for testing purposes or future staging. (wp.dargels.de) I also got the mail server on dargels.de running.
An important experience was that Duplicator does not work because it cannot handle 1.8 GB for my WordPress installation. I took UpdraftPlus instead. With this, I could easily restore an already existing backup from the remote storage.
Right now I would do the real migration of myancestry.de
The starting point is that the A-record still refers to the currently productive server. It seems that I first have to switch it off and change the DNS-Rocord to the new server and then continue. This does not allow an uninterrupted migration.
There are a lot of mail accounts assigned to this domain. How do I actually get the existing mails transferred?
Best regards, Marko
Next to the optimal module of @stephdl with versioned backups and immediate local restore possibility I think it’s also possible to restore a single DB dump manually from the default Nethbackup, see screenshot (nextcloud.dump).
Imapsync (to sync mails from another server) is integrated in Nethserver, see docs.
Another way is to work with a mail client (like thunderbird). Just setup Plesk and Neth Account and transfer via drag and drop.
Imapsync…we are working on it actually. We have just released a version that display some information on total size,message number and folder number remotely and locally.
We want to provide a way to exclude also some folders in the GUI
Thank you for your advice. I saw it before, but I understood, that I need two productive/online being accounts.
in my case I have one account, that A-Record points to my old IP-Adress, still online.
After migration the A-Record points to the new IP.
I cannot imgagine any case, to both online at the same time.
