Soketi is an open-source proxy server that allows users to access blocked or restricted websites. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Soketi on FreeBSD Latest using the command line.
To install Soketi, we first need to install the required dependencies. Run the following command to update the system package repository and install the dependencies:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg install -y lang/python38 devel/py-setuptools www/py-tornado
Next, we need to download the latest release of Soketi from the official repository. Run the following command to download and extract the release:
sudo wget https://github.com/soketi/soketi/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.0.tar.gz -O - | tar -xz
Then, navigate to the downloaded directory:
cd soketi-1.0.0/
Now, run the following command to install Soketi:
sudo python3 setup.py install
After installing the Soketi package, we need to configure it.
Create a new configuration file with the following command:
sudo nano /usr/local/etc/soketi.ini
Then, paste the following configuration into the file:
[settings]
listen=0.0.0.0:1080
dns_mode=remote
dns_servers=8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4
socks5_username=
socks5_password=
timeout=600
[group:default]
socks5_servers=host:port:user:password
Here, change the "socks5_servers" value with your desired host, port, username, and password.
Finally, we can run the Soketi server with the following command:
sudo soketi /usr/local/etc/soketi.ini
In this tutorial, we have walked you through the steps to install Soketi on FreeBSD Latest. We have also covered the configuration and implementation of the server. With this setup, you will be able to access restricted websites with ease.
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!
