Ajenti is an open-source web-based administration panel for managing remote servers. By installing Ajenti, you can manage your server using a web-based user interface that is easy to use and configure. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Ajenti on your POP! OS.
Before you start installing Ajenti, ensure that you have the following:
The first step is to update the system. To do this, open the Terminal and enter the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
Enter your password when prompted, and the system will start updating.
Ajenti requires several dependencies to be installed on the system. Enter the following command to install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-dev python3-setuptools python3-lxml libssl-dev libffi-dev libjpeg-dev libpng-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libyaml-dev python3-yaml git -y
Once you have installed the dependencies, you can install Ajenti. Enter the following command:
sudo apt-get install ajenti
Ajenti will now be installed on your system.
To start Ajenti, enter the following command:
sudo systemctl start ajenti
If you want Ajenti to start automatically when the system boots, you need to enable it. To do this, enter the following command:
sudo systemctl enable ajenti
Ajenti will now start automatically each time the system boots.
To access Ajenti, open your web browser and enter the following URL:
https://your-server-ip:8000/
Replace your-server-ip with the IP address of your server.
You may receive a warning that the connection is not secure, but this is normal because Ajenti uses a self-signed certificate. You can ignore this warning and proceed to the login page.
Ajenti will prompt you to log in. Enter your username and password, and you will be redirected to the Ajenti dashboard.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Ajenti on your POP! OS server. You can now use Ajenti to manage your server easily and securely.
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!
