Building ssh-chat on OpenBSD is the same as in other systems. All we need is to install Go.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# pkg_add go
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Running as a service
|
||||
|
||||
It's perfectly valid to not run ssh-chat as a service. Simply running `$ ssh-chat` yourself or running it inside Tmux works great. For example, you can add the following to run ssh-chat whenever your computer boots by putting the following in your crontab:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
@reboot tmux new-session -d '/path/to/ssh-chat [...]'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
But if you want to run it as a service, you can try the following:
|
||||
|
||||
### Put the executable in a standard location
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a link to the existing binary or move it completely to `/usr/local/bin`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# ln -s ~/ssh-chat/ssh-chat /usr/local/bin/ssh-chat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create the user that will run this service
|
||||
|
||||
You can use `useradd` or `adduser`. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# useradd -m chat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create the directory where ssh-chat configuration will live
|
||||
|
||||
Let's make sure to set the right permissions as well.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# mkdir /var/ssh-chat
|
||||
# chown chat:chat /var/chat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create the service
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, let's create the service. Create a file called `/etc/rc.d/ssh_chat` with the following contents:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
#!/bin/ksh
|
||||
|
||||
daemon="/usr/local/bin/ssh-chat"
|
||||
daemon_logger="daemon.info"
|
||||
daemon_flags="--verbose --bind ':PORT' --identity PRIVATE_KEY --admin=ADMIN_FILE --motd=MOTD_FILE"
|
||||
daemon_user="USER"
|
||||
|
||||
. /etc/rc.d/rc.subr
|
||||
|
||||
rc_bg=YES
|
||||
rc_reload=NO
|
||||
|
||||
rc_cmd $1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Modify the values in `daemon_flags` and `daemon_user` based on your configurations. Alternately, you can set the flags directly with `rcctl`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# rcctl set ssh_chat flags --verbose --bind [...] --identity [...]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After that, you can enable and run the service:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# rcctl enable ssh_chat
|
||||
# rcctl start ssh_chat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Logs
|
||||
|
||||
The logs will be found in `/var/log/daemon` so monitor that file if you run into any issues.
