Infinoted is a dedicated server that allows sharing of collaborative editing sessions using Gobby. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Infinoted on Kali Linux.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
First, we need to install the following dependencies:
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libgcrypt20-dev libglib2.0-dev libxml2-dev libexpat1-dev libgtkmm-3.0-dev
Next, we need to download the Infinoted source code from the GitHub repository. Open up a terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/gobby/infinoted.git
This will clone the Infinoted repository into your current working directory.
Navigate to the cloned infinoted directory and run the following commands:
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install
This will build and install Infinoted on your system. Note that the sudo command is needed to install Infinoted system-wide.
To start the Infinoted server, run the following command:
sudo infinoted
This will start the server and it will listen on port 6523 by default.
To verify that Infinoted is installed and running correctly, open up a web browser and go to http://localhost:6523. If everything is working properly, you should see a "Hello from Infinoted" message on the page.
Infinoted is now installed and running on your Kali Linux system. You can now use it to collaborate on documents and edit files simultaneously with others using Gobby.
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!
