How to Install XBackBone on OpenBSD

XBackBone is a lightweight and easy-to-use web application for file sharing. Here's how to install XBackBone on OpenBSD:

Prerequisites

Before we start, we need to ensure that our OpenBSD system meets the following prerequisites:

• An OpenBSD system with root access.
• A web server, either Nginx or Apache, installed on your OpenBSD system.
• PHP 7.2 or higher installed on your OpenBSD system.
• Git installed on your OpenBSD system.

Installing XBackBone

To install XBackBone on OpenBSD, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal on your OpenBSD system.

2. Clone the XBackBone code from GitHub using Git. In the terminal, run the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/SergioMadness/XBackBone.git
   

3. Move the cloned code to your web server's root directory. For example, if you're using Nginx web server, run the following command to move the code:

   mv XBackBone /var/www/nginx/public/
   

4. Create a virtual host configuration file for XBackBone. For example, if you're using Nginx web server, run the following command:

   sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/xbackbone
   

5. Paste the following configuration into your virtual host configuration file:

   server {
       listen 80;
       server_name xbackbone.example.com;
       root /var/www/nginx/public/XBackBone;
   
       index index.php index.html index.htm;
   
       location / {
           try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
       }
   
       location ~ \.php$ {
           include fastcgi_params;
           fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm.sock;
           fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
       }
   }
   

6. Save and close the virtual host configuration file.

7. Create a symbolic link for your virtual host configuration file. For example, if you're using Nginx web server, run the following command:

   sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/xbackbone /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
   

8. Restart your web server. For example, if you're using Nginx web server, run the following command:

   sudo service nginx restart
   

9. Open your web browser and go to your XBackBone website's URL. For example, if you used xbackbone.example.com as your server name, go to http://xbackbone.example.com in your web browser.

10. You should now see the XBackBone web application running on your OpenBSD system.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed XBackBone on your OpenBSD system.

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!
