How to Install GoSƐ on Linux Mint Latest

GoSƐ is a proxy server that allows you to easily redirect traffic to a different location, based on rules that you define. It is a powerful tool that can be used to improve security, performance, and privacy on your network. This tutorial will show you how to install GoSƐ on Linux Mint Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you will need the following:

• A Linux Mint Latest installation
• Administrative access to your Linux Mint system
• A working internet connection

Installation

1. Open a terminal instance on your Linux Mint system.

2. Install Go by running the following command:

   sudo apt install golang
   

3. Clone the GoSƐ GitHub repository using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/stv0g/gose.git
   

4. Navigate to the GoSƐ directory:

   cd gose
   

5. Build and install GoSƐ by running the following command:

   make install
   

6. Verify that the installation was successful by running the following command:

   gose version
   

   If the installation was successful, you should see the version of GoSƐ that was installed.

Configuration

1. Create a configuration file for GoSƐ:

   sudo nano /etc/gose/config.yaml
   

2. Add the following contents to the configuration file:

   servers:
     - name: "example.com"
       listen_address: "127.0.0.1:8080"
       backend_url: "http://example.com:80"
       rules:
         - pattern: ".*"
           target: "http://example.com:8080"
   

   This configuration file sets up a basic rule that redirects all traffic to http://example.com:8080.

3. Save and close the configuration file by pressing CTRL+X, y, and then ENTER.

Running GoSƐ

1. To start GoSƐ, run the following command:

   sudo systemctl start gose
   

2. To check the status of GoSƐ, run the following command:

   sudo systemctl status gose
   

   If GoSƐ is running properly, you should see an output similar to the following:

   ● gose.service - GoSƐ
      Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/gose.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)

3. To stop GoSƐ, run the following command:

   sudo systemctl stop gose
   

That's it! You have now installed and configured GoSƐ on Linux Mint Latest. You can now use GoSƐ to redirect traffic on your network according to your rules.

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!
