How to Install DomainMOD on Kali Linux

DomainMOD is a domain management tool that allows you to manage your domains and websites in one place. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install DomainMOD on Kali Linux.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding with the installation, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

• Kali Linux latest version with sudo access
• Apache2 web server installed and running
• MariaDB server installed and running

Step 1: Download DomainMOD

The first step is to download the DomainMOD source code from the official website. You can download the latest version of DomainMOD here.

Step 2: Extract the DomainMOD Source Code

Once the download is complete, navigate to the download directory and extract the DomainMOD source code using the following command:

tar -xf domainmod-x.x.x.tar.gz

Note: Replace "domainmod-x.x.x" with the version of DomainMOD you downloaded.

Step 3: Move DomainMOD to Apache2 Webroot

Next, move the extracted DomainMOD files to Apache2 web root directory. The default web root in Kali Linux is /var/www/html/.

sudo mv domainmod-x.x.x /var/www/html/domainmod

Step 4: Create a Database for DomainMOD

Now, we need to create a new database for DomainMOD. Log in to MariaDB server using the following command:

sudo mysql -u root -p

Now, create a new database for DomainMOD using the following SQL query:

CREATE DATABASE domainmod;

Step 5: Create a MariaDB User for DomainMOD

The next step is to create a new user for DomainMOD to access the database. Use the following SQL command:

CREATE USER 'domainmod'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Note: Replace "password" with a strong password.

Step 6: Grant Database Permissions for DomainMOD

Now, grant the necessary permissions to the domainmod user for the domainmod database.

GRANT ALL ON domainmod.* TO 'domainmod'@'localhost';

Step 7: Configure DomainMOD

The next step is to configure DomainMOD. Open the config.php file using your favorite editor.

sudo nano /var/www/html/domainmod/config.php

Change the following settings to match your system:

define('DB_NAME', 'domainmod');
define('DB_USER', 'domainmod');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

Note: Replace "password" with the password you used in step 5.

Step 8: Set Permissions

The last step is to set the correct permissions on the DomainMOD directory.

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/domainmod/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/domainmod/

Step 9: Access DomainMOD

That's it! You can now access DomainMOD by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost/domainmod/.

You will be prompted to create an administrator account for DomainMOD. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup process.
