Iodine is a tool that can be used to tunnel IPv4 data through a DNS server. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Iodine on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before we start with the installation, we need to make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
Open a terminal window or console on your server.
Update the package list by running the following command:
apk update
Install the build-base package which contains the necessary tools to compile and build software by running the following command:
apk add build-base
Install the iodine package by running the following command:
apk add iodine
Once the installation is complete, you can check the version of the installed iodine package by running the following command:
iodine -v
Finally, configure the iodine server by creating a configuration file. You can use the default configuration file provided by the package, or you can create your own configuration file. The configuration file should be located at /etc/iodined.conf
You have now successfully installed iodine on your Alpine Linux Latest server. You can now use iodine to tunnel IPv4 data through a DNS server. For more information on how to use iodine, you can refer to the official documentation at https://code.kryo.se/iodine/.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
