In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install ShellHub on EndeavourOS Latest. ShellHub is a modern solution for accessing remote devices using SSH. It provides secure and direct access to Linux devices behind firewalls, NAT, and proxies. The steps below will guide you through the process of installing ShellHub on your system.
Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure that your system meets the following requirements:
First, update the package lists on your system using the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
This command will update all the installed packages on your system to their latest versions.
We will be using Docker to install ShellHub on your system. Therefore, before proceeding with the installation process, you need to install Docker on your system using the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker
After executing the above command, Docker will be installed on your system.
Next, start the Docker service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
You need to enable the Docker service so that it starts automatically at system boot time. To enable the Docker service, execute the following command:
sudo systemctl enable docker
Now, that Docker is installed and running, we can install ShellHub using Docker. To install ShellHub, execute the following command:
sudo docker run -d --restart=always -p 2222:2222 -p 80:8080 -p 443:8443 -v /var/lib/shellhub:/var/lib/shellhub shellhub/server
This command will download the ShellHub image from Docker Hub and run it on your system. It will also expose ports 2222, 80, and 443 and create a persistent data volume for ShellHub.
By default, EndeavourOS comes with no firewall enabled, but we will configure the built-in UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall) to allow traffic on ports 2222, 80, and 443 using the following commands:
sudo pacman -S ufw
sudo ufw allow 2222
sudo ufw allow 80
sudo ufw allow 443
sudo ufw enable
The first command installs UFW, which is a firewall management tool. The next three commands allow traffic on ports 2222, 80, and 443 respectively. The last command enables the firewall and applies the configuration.
Now, that ShellHub is installed and running, you can access it using a web browser. To access ShellHub, enter the following URL in your web browser:
https://your-server-IP
Here, replace "your-server-IP" with the IP address of your EndeavourOS system. You should see the ShellHub login page where you can log in using the default credentials:
You can change the default password after logging in.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed ShellHub on your EndeavourOS Latest system. You can now use it to access your remote Linux devices securely and directly.
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!
