ZITADEL is an open-source identity and access management (IAM) system used to manage user identities and access to resources. It is developed by Caos AG and it is available on GitHub. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install ZITADEL on MXLinux Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
To install ZITADEL on MXLinux Latest, we need to install Docker first. Docker is a platform that allows us to run applications in containers. To install Docker, follow these steps:
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T.
Update the package list by running the following command:
sudo apt update
Install the packages needed to add the Docker repository:
sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg-agent software-properties-common
Add the Docker GPG key:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Verify that you now have the key with the fingerprint 9DC8 5822 9FC7 DD38 854A E2D8 8D81 803C 0EBF CD88 by searching for the last 8 characters of the fingerprint.
sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88
Add the Docker repository:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
Update the package list again:
sudo apt update
Install Docker:
sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
Verify that Docker is installed correctly by running the following command:
sudo docker run hello-world
This command downloads a test image and runs it in a container. If Docker is installed correctly, you should see a message saying "Hello from Docker!".
After installing Docker, we can now download and run the ZITADEL image. Follow these steps:
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T.
Download the ZITADEL image by running the following command:
sudo docker pull registry.s6.caos.ch/caos/zitadel
After downloading the image, start the ZITADEL container:
sudo docker run -it -d -p 8080:8080 -p 6443:6443 registry.s6.caos.ch/caos/zitadel
This command starts the ZITADEL container in detached mode (-d), maps port 8080 and 6443 from the container to the host (-p), and runs it in interactive mode (-it).
Verify that ZITADEL is running by accessing the ZITADEL web interface at http://localhost:8080. If everything is working correctly, you should see the ZITADEL login page.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install ZITADEL on MXLinux Latest using Docker. ZITADEL is a powerful IAM system that can help you manage user identities and access to resources. With ZITADEL, you can easily authenticate users, manage permissions, and secure your applications.
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!
