Open the Redis configuration file using your favorite text editor.
sudo nano /etc/redis/redis.conf
Look for the line that starts with bind and change it to:

Save and close the file.
Restart the Redis service to apply the changes.

By default, Alltube listens to port 5000. Open your web browser and visit http://your_server_ip_address:5000 to access the Alltube application.
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!
