Lufi is a free and open-source file-sharing tool that allows users to upload and share files easily and securely. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing Lufi on OpenBSD.
Before you get started, make sure you have the following:
Lufi requires several dependencies to run properly. You can install them by running the following command:
$ doas pkg_add -i gmake perl p5-Digest-SHA1 p5-Cpanel-JSON-XS p5-DBI p5-Catalyst-Runtime p5-Crypt-CBC p5-Mojo-DOM58
This command should install all necessary packages.
Next, you'll need to download and install Lufi. You can download Lufi from the official repository using the following command:
$ git clone https://framagit.org/fiat-tux/hat-softwares/lufi.git`
Once you have downloaded Lufi, navigate to the directory and use the following command to install it:
$ cd lufi
$ doas gmake install
This command should build and install Lufi on your OpenBSD server.
After installing Lufi, you'll need to configure it. The configuration file is in the "etc" directory. To edit the file, use the command:
$ doas nano etc/lufi.conf
You can change the options in the file as per your preference.
To start Lufi, run the following command:
$ doas rcctl start lufi
This should start the Lufi service on your OpenBSD server.
You have successfully installed Lufi on your OpenBSD server. Now, you can use it to securely share files with others. If you have any issues, you can refer to the official documentation.
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!
