In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Tuber on MXLinux Latest. Tuber is a self-hosted video chat server that allows you to have video conferences with your friends or colleagues. It is an open-source project developed by Trail of Bits. Installing Tuber is a straightforward process, and by the end of this tutorial, you will be able to have your own video chat server up and running.
Before we get started, there are a few things you will need:
The first step to installing Tuber is to install Docker. Docker is a platform that allows developers to package applications into containers. Containers are lightweight, portable, and can run on any system that has Docker installed. To install Docker on MXLinux Latest, follow the steps below:
Connect to your server via SSH
Update your system packages
sudo apt update
Install Docker
sudo apt install docker-ce
Start and enable the Docker service
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
Verify that Docker is running
sudo docker run hello-world
If Docker is installed correctly, you should see a message that says "Hello from Docker!".
Now that we have Docker installed, we can proceed to install Tuber. We will use a Docker image of Tuber that is available on Docker Hub. The Docker image contains all the necessary dependencies and configurations to run Tuber. Follow the steps below to install Tuber:
Pull the Tuber Docker image
sudo docker pull trailofbits/tuber:latest
Create a new Docker container from the Tuber image
sudo docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v tuber-data:/data trailofbits/tuber:latest
The -d flag tells Docker to run the container in the background. The -p flag maps port 8080 of the container to port 8080 of the host (your server). The -v flag specifies a Docker volume named "tuber-data" that will keep the Tuber data persistent even if the container is deleted or recreated.
Verify that Tuber is running
sudo docker ps
This command should show you a list of all the running Docker containers. You should see a container with the name "trailofbits/tuber:latest".
That's it! Tuber is now installed on your server, and you can access it by going to http://<your-server-ip>:8080 in your web browser.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Tuber on MXLinux Latest using Docker. Tuber is a powerful tool for hosting your own video conferences and can be run on any system that has Docker installed. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments section below.
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!
