Iodine is a simple tool that allows you to tunnel IPv4 data through a DNS server. It is a useful tool for bypassing firewalls or connecting devices that have limited networking capabilities. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Iodine on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before installing any software, make sure that you have administrative privileges on the system.
First, open a terminal on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Update the package lists and upgrade installed packages to their latest versions by typing the following commands:
sudo dnf update
Install the iodine package from the official Fedora repositories by typing the following command:
sudo dnf install iodine
Verify that iodine is installed correctly by running the following command:
iodine -v
If you see the iodine version number, then the installation was successful.
Create a password for the iodine tunnel by running the following command:
sudo sh -c 'echo "your_password" > /etc/iodine/password.txt'
Replace "your_password" with a strong and unique password.
Start the iodine tunnel by running the following command:
sudo iodined -f -c -P your_password 10.0.0.1 iodine.example.com
Replace "your_password" with the password you created in the previous step. Replace "10.0.0.1" with the IP address of the iodine server that will receive the tunnel traffic. Replace "iodine.example.com" with the domain name of the iodine server.
Open another terminal window and verify that the iodine tunnel is working by running the following command:
sudo iodine -c iodine.example.com
If the command returns a message that says "Opened DNS tunnel", then the iodine tunnel is working.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install and configure iodine on Fedora CoreOS Latest. Now you can use iodine to bypass firewalls or connect devices that have limited networking capabilities.
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!
