Overview

From the install command to the first verified block, in a few minutes.

This guide takes a Linux server from zero to its first verified block. The short path:

  1. Check the requirements: a supported distribution, root access and outbound HTTPS on port 443.
  2. In the dashboard, generate an install token and run the command on the server.
  3. Do the first steps: add your IP to the allowed IPs and turn on protection.

What the installer does

  • Checks the system, the architecture and the available firewall.
  • Downloads the agent and verifies the manifest’s ed25519 signature and each file’s SHA-256. If anything doesn’t match, nothing is installed.
  • Installs the atalince-agent binary and the systemd service of the same name.
  • Registers the server in the dashboard with the given token.

What it doesn’t do

  • It doesn’t open inbound ports.
  • It doesn’t change the firewall rules already on the server.
  • It doesn’t turn blocking on by itself: every server starts in Monitor only.
