PassWall is a free, open-source, and feature-rich server-based password manager that allows you to manage your passwords securely. It is easy to use and offers a powerful web interface that makes password management a breeze. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install PassWall on Fedora Server Latest
Before you start the installation process, make sure to meet the following prerequisites:
Before installing the PassWall package, update your Fedora Server package list.
sudo dnf update
The PassWall package is available on the GitHub repository, and you can get it by cloning the repository.
First, install the Git package to get the PassWall source.
sudo dnf install git
Once the Git is installed on the system, use the following command to clone the PassWall repository.
git clone https://github.com/passwall/passwall-server
Now that you have the PassWall source cloned, run the installation script using the following command.
cd passwall-server
sudo ./install.sh
The PassWall installation process will take some time to set up all dependencies and other features.
PassWall's installation creates a configuration file in the /etc/passwall directory. You need to open this file to set up PassWall.
sudo nano /etc/passwall/passwall-server.conf
In the configuration file, set the following options:
DOMAIN=example.com # Set Your Domain
API_PORT=18080 # Set Your API Port
API_PASSWORD=XXXXXXXXXXX # Set Your API Password
DB_PASSWORD=YYYYYYYYYYY # Set Your Database Password
REDIS_PASSWORD=ZZZZZZZZZZZ # Set Your Redis Password
Update these variables, save the configuration file, and exit the editor.
With the configuration done, you can start the PassWall server using the following command.
sudo systemctl start passwall
The above command starts the PassWall service, but it does not enable it by default, meaning that it will not start on boot. To start it automatically on boot, run the following command.
sudo systemctl enable passwall
With the PassWall installation done, you can now access the PassWall server on your server's IP address or domain name, followed by the port number you set up in the configuration file. Use this URL format:
http://your-ip-address:port-number or http://your-domain:port-number
Now enter the username and API password you set up in the configuration file to log in to the PassWall server.
That's it! You have successfully installed PassWall on your Fedora Server Latest system. You can now manage your passwords securely and efficiently using PassWall.
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!
