In this tutorial, we will explain how to install ejabberd on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. Ejabberd is a powerful XMPP server that allows you to chat securely with your colleagues, friends, and family.
Before installing ejabberd, make sure you have the following:
The first step is to update the system. You can do that by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo rpm-ostree update
This command will download and install the latest updates for your Fedora CoreOS system.
Once your system is up-to-date, you can install ejabberd by running the following command:
sudo podman run -d --name ejabberd -p 5222:5222 -p 5269:5269 -p 5280:5280 ejabberd/ecs
This command will download the latest ejabberd container image and run it as a daemon on your server. It will also expose the required ports for ejabberd to work correctly.
After the installation is complete, you can verify that ejabberd is working correctly by visiting http://localhost:5280/admin in your web browser. This should bring up the ejabberd administration interface, where you can configure and manage your ejabberd instance.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed ejabberd on your Fedora CoreOS server. You can now start using ejabberd to communicate securely with your colleagues, friends, and family. If you have any issues or questions, please consult the ejabberd documentation or seek help from their community forums.
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!
