How to Install AmIUnique on FreeBSD

AmIUnique is a web based platform that allows individuals to test browser fingerprinting. In order to install AmIUnique on FreeBSD, follow the steps below:

  1. Login to your FreeBSD server with root privileges.

  2. Install the dependencies required for AmIUnique to run:

    pkg install apache24 mysql57-server php74 php74-mysqli php74-mbstring php74-zlib php74-curl php74-gd php74-opcache
    
  3. Start the Apache and MySQL services:

    service apache24 start
    service mysql-server start
    
  4. Download the AmIUnique repository:

    git clone https://github.com/DIVERSIFY-project/AmIUnique.git /usr/local/www/AmIUnique
    
  5. Create a MySQL database for AmIUnique:

    mysql -u root -p
    CREATE DATABASE amiunique_db CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci;
    CREATE USER 'amiunique_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password_here';
    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON amiunique_db.* TO 'amiunique_user'@'localhost';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
    exit
    
  6. Edit the configuration file:

    cp /usr/local/www/AmIUnique/config/amiunique.ini.template /usr/local/www/AmIUnique/config/amiunique.ini
    vim /usr/local/www/AmIUnique/config/amiunique.ini
    

    In the configuration file, insert the database credentials you just created in step 5:

    [database]
    dsn = "mysqli:dbname=amiunique_db;host=localhost"
    user = "amiunique_user"
    password = "password_here"
    
  7. Edit the Apache configuration file:

    vim /usr/local/etc/apache24/Includes/amiunique.conf
    

    Add the following lines to the file:

    Alias /amiunique /usr/local/www/AmIUnique/public/
    
    <Directory "/usr/local/www/AmIUnique/public">
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
    
  8. Restart the Apache service:

    service apache24 restart
    
  9. Open your web browser and navigate to http://<your_ip>/amiunique to access the AmIUnique platform.

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!
