Kerberos.io is an open-source video surveillance software that allows you to monitor and record video feeds from IP cameras. In this tutorial, we will be guiding you through the process of installing Kerberos.io on NetBSD.
The first step is to install the dependencies required for running Kerberos.io. Run the following command to install them.
su -
pkgin update && pkgin install php php-curl php-pdo php-mbstring php-session php-json wget tar gzip ffmpeg
Next, we need to download the latest version of Kerberos.io from their website.
cd /opt
wget https://github.com/kerberos-io/kios/releases/download/v2.7.1/kios-linux-armv7l.tar.gz
Now we need to extract the downloaded tarball and move the extracted files to the appropriate directory.
tar -xf kios-linux-armv7l.tar.gz
mv kios /usr/local/www/kios
Before we start using Kerberos.io, we need to configure it. To do this, we need to copy the config.example.php file to config.php and modify it as necessary.
cp /usr/local/www/kios/app/config/config.example.php /usr/local/www/kios/app/config/config.php
vi /usr/local/www/kios/app/config/config.php
In the config.php file, you need to modify the following settings:
cameras: Add your IP camera informationimage_processing: Set the method to background_subtractionstreaming: Edit accordingly the streaming.RTP settings with user credentials and encoding settings.Now that we have installed and configured Kerberos.io, we can start it using the following command.
su -c "/usr/pkg/bin/php /usr/local/www/kios/bin/console bootstrap:start" _www
After starting Kerberos.io, you should be able to access the web interface by visiting http://localhost:8888/ in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Kerberos.io on NetBSD. You can now use it for video surveillance.
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!
