Seedbox From Scratch - Tutorial

 

The Seedbox From Scratch Script

 

Current version = 2.1.9

 

Last stable version = 2.1.8

 

This is a script I've being working for some time now. I decided to share it here because it has some good things to add:

 

A multi-user enviroment, you'll have scripts to add and delete users.

Linux Quota, to control how much space every user can use in your box.

Installed software

 

ruTorrent 3.4 + official plugins

rTorrent 0.9.2 or 0.9.3 (you can choose, downgrade and upgrade at any time)

Deluge 1.3.5 or 0.9.3 (you can choose, downgrade and upgrade at any time)

libTorrrent 0.13.2 or 0.12.9

mktorrent

Fail2ban - to avoid apache and ssh exploits. Fail2ban bans IPs that show malicious signs -- too many password failures, seeking for exploits, etc.

Apache (SSL)

OpenVPN

PHP 5 and PHP-FPM (FastCGI to increase performance)

Linux Quota

SSH Server (for SSH terminal and sFTP connections)

vsftpd (Very Secure FTP Deamon)

Before installation

 

You need to have a "blank" server installation, if you have a Kimsufi, just do a "reinstall" on it, using Ubuntu Server 12.04. After that access your box using a SSH client, like PuTTY.

 

Warnings

 

If you don't know Linux ENOUGH:

 

DO NOT install this script on a non OVH Host. It is doable, but you'll have to know Linux to solve some problems.

 

DO NOT use capital letters, all your usernames should be written in lowercase.

 

DO NOT upgrade anything in your box, ask in the thread before even thinking about it.

 

DO NOT try to reconfigure packages using other tutorials.

 

 

How to install

 

Just copy and paste those commands on your terminal:

 

wget -N

You must be logged as root to run this installation or use sudo on it.

 

Commands

 

After installing you will have access to the following commands to be used directly in terminal

 

createSeedboxUser

deleteSeedboxUser

changeUserPassword

installRapidleech

installOpenVPN

installSABnzbd

installWebmin

installDeluge

updategitRepository

removeWebmin

upgradeRTorrent

installRTorrent

restartSeedbox

 

While executing them, if sudo is needed, they will ask for a password.

 

Services

 

To access services installed on your new server point your browser to the following address:

 

https://<Server IP or Server Name>/seedboxInfo.php

OpenVPN

 

To use your VPN you will need a VPN client compatible with OpenVPN, necessary files to configure your connection are in this link in your box:

 

http://<Server IP or Server Name>/rutorrent/vpn.zip` and use it in any OpenVPN client.

Supported and tested servers

 

Ubuntu Server 12.10.0 - 64bit (on VM environment)

Ubuntu Server 12.04.x - 64bit (on VM environment)

Ubuntu Server 12.04.x - 32bit (OVH's Kimsufi 2G and 16G - Precise)

Ubuntu Server 12.04.x - 64bit (OVH's Kimsufi 2G and 16G - Precise)

Debian 6.0.6 - 32 and 64bit (OVH's Kimsufi 2G - Squeeze)

Debian 6.0.6 - 32 and 64bit (on VM environment)

Quota

 

Quota is disabled by default in your box. To enable and use it, you'll have to open Webmin, using the address you can find in one of the tables box above this. After you sucessfully logged on Webmin, enable it by clicking

 

System => Disk and Network Filesystems => /home => Use Quotas? => Select "Only User" => Save

 

Now you'll have to configure quota for each user, doing

 

System => Disk Quotas => /home => => Configure the "Soft kilobyte limit" => Update

 

As soon as you save it, your seedbox will also update the available space to all your users.

 

Changelog

 

Take a look at seedbox-from-scratch.sh, it's all there.
