Linux (RHEL and derivatives)

Seer Box can be installed directly on a RHEL-based Linux machine through the standard package manager.

The software operates in a containerized environment using podman as the container manager and systemD as the orchestrator. This allows for easy management of the service using the systemctl command.

Minimum requirements​

  • Linux OS RHEL >= 9.x (Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux)
  • 2 CPU
  • 4 GB RAM
  • 20 GB HDD
  • User with admin privileges

Installation​

Install the Seer Box repository definition:

# dnf config-manager --add-repo https://update.pluribus-one.it/seer-box/seer-box-el9.repo

If disabled, enable EPEL repositories:

# dnf install -y epel-release

Update the repository metadata and install the Seer Box package:

# dnf makecache
# dnf install -y seer-box

First startup​

To start Seer Box you must agree to the terms of the EULA (End User License Agreement). To do this, simply set an environment variable within the /opt/seer_box/.env file:

SBX_ACCEPT_EULA=YES
warning

If the terms of the EULA are not accepted, the software will not be started.

After installation is complete, start the Seer Box service:

# systemctl start seer-box

On first startup (and subsequent updates) Seer Box will download all resources useful for its operation. To check the progress status you can use the command:

# systemctl status seer-box*

Once the services have finished starting up, it will be possible to access the system's web interface, available at:

http://<machine_ip>:53380/
info

It is recommended to expose the web interface behind reverse proxy with SSL enabled and, if possible, limit access to it only to authorized IP addresses. In any case, it is preferable not to expose such an interface on public address.

The default credentials for the administration user are:

  • Username: admin
  • Password: SeerBox_4dm1n
info

After the first login, it is recommended to change the default password.
