LinuxGSM is a tool that simplifies the process of managing game servers on Linux operating systems. However, it can also be used on OpenBSD with a few extra steps. Here's how to install LinuxGSM on OpenBSD:
Before you begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
To run LinuxGSM on OpenBSD, you need to install some additional packages. Open the terminal and run the following command to install them:
sudo pkg_add -v bash git tar
To download the LinuxGSM script, use the following command:
curl -o linuxgsm.sh https://linuxgsm.com/dl/linuxgsm.sh
This will download the LinuxGSM script as linuxgsm.sh.
To run the game server, it's recommended to create a new user on your OpenBSD machine. To create a new user, run the following command:
sudo adduser gameuser
This command will create a new user named gameuser.
To install LinuxGSM, run the following command:
sudo su - gameuser -c "bash linuxgsm.sh"
This command will install LinuxGSM on your system and run it as the gameuser user.
Once you have installed LinuxGSM, you can use it to install and run various game servers. For example, to install a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive server, use the following command:
./csgoserver install
This will download and install the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive server files.
Now that you've installed LinuxGSM on OpenBSD and installed a game server, you're ready to start playing your favorite games! LinuxGSM simplifies the process of managing game servers, making it easy to host and manage your own game servers on your OpenBSD machine.
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!
