How to Install Teleport on Void Linux

Teleport is an open-source tool that provides secure access to Linux servers, Kubernetes clusters, and other cloud resources. Teleport makes it easy to manage access and audit sessions, and it works with any SSH server.

In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Teleport on Void Linux.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, you will need to have the following:

Step 1 - Download the Teleport Package

To download the Teleport package, you can use the xbps-install command:

sudo xbps-install -S teleport

This will download and install the latest version of Teleport.

Step 2 - Configure Teleport

Once Teleport is installed, you will need to configure it. The configuration files are located in the /etc/teleport/ directory.

The main configuration file is teleport.yaml. You can edit this file using your preferred text editor. The configuration options are well-documented, and you can find more information in the Teleport documentation.

Here is an example configuration file:

# teleport.yaml
auth_service:
  enabled: "yes"
  cluster_name: "teleport"
  listen_addr: "0.0.0.0:3025"
  ttl: "24h"
  public_addr: "teleport.example.com:3025"
  https_key_file: "/etc/teleport/ssl/server.key"
  https_cert_file: "/etc/teleport/ssl/server.crt"

proxy_service:
  enabled: "yes"
  listen_addr: "0.0.0.0:3080"
  public_addr: "teleport.example.com:443"
  https_key_file: "/etc/teleport/ssl/server.key"
  https_cert_file: "/etc/teleport/ssl/server.crt"
  web_listen_addr: "0.0.0.0:3080"
  tunnel_listen_addr: "0.0.0.0:3023"

ssh_service:
  enabled: "yes"
  addresses:
  - "0.0.0.0:3022"
  namespaces:
  - name: "default"

This configuration file enables the Authentication, Proxy, and SSH services. It also sets up the necessary SSL certificates and binds the services to specific ports and addresses.

Once you have configured the teleport.yaml file, you can start Teleport by running the following command:

sudo systemctl start teleport

Teleport should now be up and running on your server! You can connect to it using a client such as tsh, which is provided by the Teleport package.
