Ajenti is a web-based server management tool that provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Ajenti on the latest OpenSUSE release.
Before starting the installation process, it is essential to update the system repositories to ensure that you have the latest package versions. Open the terminal and run the command:
sudo zypper update
Enter your password when prompted and wait for the updates to complete.
Ajenti requires Python and some other dependencies to work correctly. We can install them by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo zypper install python python-Pygments python-flup python-imaging python-magic python-pyOpenSSL python-requests python-setuptools python-simplejson python-virtualenv python-werkzeug python-psutil
In addition, we also need to install the EPEL repository to download some additional dependencies:
sudo zypper install epel-release
Now, we can proceed to download and install Ajenti using the following commands:
sudo wget http://repo.ajenti.org/debian/key -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo echo "deb http://repo.ajenti.org/ng/debian main main ubuntu" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper install ajenti
Wait for the download and installation to complete.
To start using Ajenti, we need to start and enable the Ajenti service. Use the following commands in the terminal:
sudo systemctl start ajenti.service
sudo systemctl enable ajenti.service
Once the Ajenti service is running and enabled, you can access the Ajenti web interface by opening your favorite web browser and entering the following URL in the address bar:
http://localhost:8000
If you are using a remote server, replace "localhost" with the server's IP address. You should see the Ajenti login page.
Enter your login credentials to access the dashboard. The default username is "root," and the password is the root user's password. Once you log in, you can start using Ajenti to manage your server.
That's it! You have successfully installed Ajenti on the latest OpenSUSE release. You can now use it to manage your server more effectively. You can install and configure various plugins to add more functionality to the platform by navigating to Configuration -> Plugins.
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!
