Peergos is a decentralized file sharing and collaboration platform that allows users to store, share, and collaborate on files securely. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install Peergos on Fedora Server latest version.
Before installing Peergos on Fedora server, make sure the following prerequisites are met:
Peergos requires Java to run. If Java is not installed on your server, install it by executing the following command:
sudo dnf install java-11-openjdk
Download the Peergos distribution from the official website https://peergos.org. Once you have downloaded the file, extract it:
tar -xzf peergos-linux-x64-*.tar.gz
Here, replace *.tar.gz with the actual filename of the downloaded file.
Create a Systemd service file for Peergos:
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/peergos.service
Add the following content to the file:
[Unit]
Description=Peergos
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
Restart=always
User=peergos
ExecStart=<path-to-peergos>/bin/peergos.server
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
In this file, replace <path-to-peergos> with the actual path to the Peergos extracted files.
Save and close the file.
Start the Peergos service by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl start peergos
Enable it to start at boot time:
sudo systemctl enable peergos
You can access Peergos by navigating to http://localhost:8080 in a web browser.
Now you have Peergos running on your Fedora server. You can use this platform to share and collaborate on files securely with others.
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!
