Nebula is an open-source VPN tool that is designed to be used for scalable and secure communication between hosts over the internet. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Nebula on OpenBSD.
Before installing Nebula, you need to make sure that all the required dependencies are installed on your system. Open a terminal window and run the following command:
sudo pkg_add go
This command will install the go programming language on your system.
Next, you need to clone the Nebula repository from GitHub. Run the following command to do so:
git clone https://github.com/slackhq/nebula.git
Once you have cloned the Nebula repository, you need to build it using the following commands:
cd nebula
make openbsd
This will build the Nebula binary for OpenBSD.
Finally, you can run Nebula with the following command:
sudo ./nebula-cert ca -name "Nebula CA"
This command will create a new Certificate Authority (CA) for Nebula. You can change the name of the CA as per your requirements.
After creating the CA, you can run the Nebula daemon using the following command:
sudo ./nebula -config /path/to/config.yml
Make sure to replace /path/to/config.yml with the path to your configuration file.
That's it! You have successfully installed Nebula on OpenBSD. You can now use it for secure communication between hosts over the internet.
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!
