How to Install Outline Server on Clear Linux Latest

In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing Outline Server on Clear Linux Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

• A machine running Clear Linux Latest
• A user account with administrative privileges

Step 1: Install Docker

Outline Server requires Docker to be installed and configured. To install Docker on Clear Linux Latest, follow these steps:

1. Open the Terminal

2. Run the following command to install Docker:

   sudo swupd bundle-add containers-basic
   

3. After the installation is complete, start the Docker service by running the following command:

   sudo systemctl start docker
   

4. Verify that Docker is running by running the following command:

   sudo docker info
   

Step 2: Get the Outline Server Docker Image

Outline Server is distributed as a Docker image. To obtain the image, follow these steps:

1. Open the Terminal

2. Run the following command to download the Outline Server Docker image:

   sudo docker pull outline/shadowbox
   

Step 3: Run Outline Server Container

Now that you have Docker installed and have obtained the Outline Server Docker image, you can run Outline Server as a Docker container. Follow these steps:

1. Open the Terminal

2. Run the following command to start Outline Server:

   sudo docker run -d --name=<container-name> -p <host-port>:<container-port> outline/shadowbox
   

   Replace <container-name> with the name you would like to give the container, <host-port> with the port number on your machine that you want to use for Outline Server, and <container-port> with the port number that Outline Server uses. By default, Outline Server uses port 9090.

   For example, to create a container named my-outline-server and use port 9090 on the host, run the following command:

   sudo docker run -d --name=my-outline-server -p 9090:9090 outline/shadowbox
   

3. After you have started the container, you can verify that it is running by running the following command:

   sudo docker ps
   

   This will show you a list of running Docker containers.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Outline Server on Clear Linux Latest. You can now connect to your Outline Server by navigating to http://<server-ip>:<host-port>/ in a web browser, where <server-ip> is the IP address of your server and <host-port> is the port number you specified in Step 3.

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!
