ARRCON is an open-source software designed to provide remote access to your local applications securely. It serves as a reverse proxy that lets you access your applications via a web interface on any device. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps of installing ARRCON on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
ARRCON is built on Node.js, so we need to install it on our server first.
Ctrl + Alt + T.sudo apt-get update.sudo apt-get install nodejs.To ensure Node.js is installed, run the following command:
node -v
This command should return the version of Node.js installed on your system.
Now, we're ready to install ARRCON.
git clone https://github.com/radj307/ARRCON.git
cd into the ARRCON directory:cd ARRCON
npm install
You can customize the ARRCON configuration by modifying the config.json file. You may adjust settings such as the port number, SSL certificate, and more.
Note: For SSL, ensure that you have a valid SSL certificate installed and update the configuration accordingly.
Start ARRCON using the following command:
npm start
You should see output that says Server started on port {PORT_NUMBER}. This means that ARRCON has started successfully.
To access ARRCON, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 (replace 3000 with the port number specified in your config.json file). You should see the ARRCON login page.
To log in, use the default credentials:
Once you've logged in, you can configure your local applications and start accessing them remotely.
