Teleport is an open source tool that provides secure access to Linux servers and Kubernetes clusters. This tutorial will show you how to install Teleport on the latest version of OpenSUSE using the command line.
Before we begin, please ensure that you have the following:
Open a terminal window on your OpenSUSE machine.
Update the package repositories:
sudo zypper refresh
Install Teleport using this command:
sudo zypper install teleport
Verify that Teleport is installed correctly by running the following command:
teleport version
You should see the version number of Teleport printed on the screen.
Open the Teleport configuration file for editing:
sudo nano /etc/teleport/teleport.yaml
Update the configuration file as required, providing the necessary settings such as user authentication, server addresses and certificates.
Save the changes to the file and exit the editor.
Restart the Teleport service to apply the new configuration:
sudo systemctl restart teleport
Once the configuration has been applied, you can connect to the Teleport server using the tsh command:
tsh login --proxy=<teleport server address> --auth=<user>:<password>
Replace <teleport server address> with the IP address or hostname of the Teleport server, and <user> and <password> with your Teleport login credentials.
You should now be logged into the Teleport server and have access to the resources configured in the teleport.yaml file.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Teleport on the latest version of OpenSUSE using the command line. We have also shown you how to configure Teleport and connect to the Teleport server. With Teleport installed, you can now securely access your Linux servers and Kubernetes clusters.
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!
