Bolt is a tool that can be used for orchestrated tasks or ad-hoc tasks on remote systems. In this tutorial, we will discuss how to install Bolt on Kali Linux Latest.
Before we start installing Bolt on Kali Linux Latest, we should make sure that our system meets the following prerequisites:
Bolt is developed and maintained by Puppet. So, we need to import the Puppet repository signing key before installing Bolt on Kali Linux. We can import the Puppet repository signing key using the following command:
curl -s https://downloads.puppet.com/puppet6-release-buster.asc | sudo apt-key add -
After importing the Puppet signing key, we have to add the Puppet repository to our Kali Linux system. We can add a repository using the following command:
echo "deb http://apt.puppet.com/puppet6-release-buster.deb kali-rolling main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/puppet6.list
After adding the Puppet repository, we need to update our system's package list so that it can recognize the newly added repository. We can update the package list using the following command:
sudo apt-get update
Now that we have added the Puppet repository and updated the package list, we are ready to install Bolt on our Kali Linux system. We can install Bolt on Kali Linux Latest using the following command:
sudo apt-get install puppet-bolt
Once Bolt is installed successfully, we can verify its installation using the following command:
bolt --version
This command should display the version of Bolt which indicates that it is successfully installed on your system.
We have successfully installed Bolt on Kali Linux Latest and verified its installation. Now you can use Bolt to perform orchestrated or ad-hoc tasks on remote systems.
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!
