Once you have installed Kazoo on your server, you need to configure it. The configuration file is located at /etc/kazoo/kazoo.ini. You need to edit this file to configure Kazoo's settings.

apps_dir = /var/lib/kazoo
[kamailio]
listen_ip = your IP address
eth = your network interface name
After editing the file, save it and close it.
To start Kazoo, run the following command:
sudo systemctl start kazoo

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Kazoo on your Fedora Server Latest. You can now use Kazoo to create and manage phone systems on your server.
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!
