Sentora is a free, open-source web hosting control panel that allows users to manage their website’s databases, emails, domains, and more. In this tutorial, we’ll guide you on how to install Sentora on a POP! OS system.
Before we get started, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, make sure your system is up to date:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Sentora requires some packages to be installed. Run the following command:
sudo apt install wget nano ca-certificates
Next, add the Sentora repository key to the system:
wget -O - http://repo.sentora.org/apt/yiimp.asc | sudo apt-key add -
Now add the Sentora repository to the system:
echo "deb http://repo.sentora.org/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sentora.list
After adding the Sentora repository, update the system and get Sentora:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install sentora-core
Sentora control panel runs on default port 8080, so you need to allow this port on your firewall. Run the following command to add a firewall rule:
sudo ufw allow 8080
Next, you can access Sentora on your web browser by visiting “http://your-ip-address:8080/”. When you open the page, you will see the Sentora login page. Use “admin” for username and “password” as your password to log in.
That’s it! You have successfully installed Sentora on your POP! OS 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!
