In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps of installing Vaults on NetBSD. Vaults is a password manager written in Rust and it provides a command-line interface to manage your secrets securely.
Before we begin, make sure you have Rust installed on your system. You can check if Rust is installed by running the following command:
rustc --version
If Rust is not installed on your system, you can download and install it by following the instructions on the official Rust website.
The first step in installing Vaults is to install its dependencies. Here are the commands that you need to run to install the necessary dependencies on NetBSD:
pkgin update
pkgin install git gmake pkg-config
Now that we have all the dependencies installed, let's clone the Vaults repository from Github:
git clone https://github.com/MatrixEternal/vaults.git
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the Vaults directory and build it using the following command:
cd vaults
cargo build --release
This command will build Vaults and create a binary file called vaults
in the target/release
directory.
Next, copy the vaults
binary to the /usr/local/bin
directory, which is in your system's PATH
:
cp target/release/vaults /usr/local/bin/
Finally, let's test if Vaults has been installed successfully. Run the following command to ensure that Vaults is installed properly:
vaults --version
If everything has been installed correctly, you should see the version number of the installed Vaults. Congratulations, you have successfully installed Vaults on NetBSD!
In this tutorial, we have walked you through the steps to install Vaults on NetBSD. Be sure to use Vaults to store your secrets securely and protect your passwords.
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!
