Linux Dash is a web-based dashboard for monitoring and managing Linux servers. The dashboard allows you to view real-time information about system performance, network activity, and more. In this tutorial, we'll go through the steps to install and configure Linux Dash on your Ubuntu server.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
First, we need to install some required packages on Ubuntu that are needed for Linux Dash.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2 php php-json sysstat
Next, we will download Linux Dash from the official GitHub repository.
cd /var/www/html
sudo git clone https://github.com/afaqurk/linux-dash.git
Now, we need to configure Apache to serve the Linux Dash files.
Create a new file in /etc/apache2/sites-available called linuxdash.conf with the following contents:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/linux-dash
<Directory "/var/www/html/linux-dash">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Enable the new site and restart Apache:
sudo a2ensite linuxdash.conf
sudo service apache2 restart
Now, you can access Linux Dash from your web browser by visiting http://
The default username and password for Linux Dash are both admin.
In this tutorial, we installed Linux Dash on Ubuntu Server and configured Apache to serve the Linux Dash files. You're now ready to manage your Linux system using the Linux Dash dashboard.
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!
