Installing on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, CentOS and similar
These instructions apply to any RPM-based distribution with systemd.
RPM binary packages exist to simplify the installation of Yggdrasil. These will also work on any other RPM-based distribution.
Install RPM package from COPR repository
There’s a Fedora COPR repository available, which provides recent versions of Yggdrasil - only for Fedora!
Fedora
Installation on Fedora is easy as:
dnf copr enable rany/yggdrasil
dnf install yggdrasil
… and you’re ready to go!
One-off package install from CircleCI (not recommended!)
Visit our Builds page and download the relevant .rpm file, then
install it on your system:
sudo groupadd --system yggdrasil
sudo rpm -i yggdrasil...rpm
Configuration will be generated automatically into /etc/yggdrasil.conf when
the package is installed, and the Yggdrasil service will automatically be
installed into systemd and started.
Please note: By using this installation method, you won’t receive (security-/) updates for Yggdrasil!
Making configuration changes
Modify the /etc/yggdrasil.conf file and then either reload the config:
systemctl reload yggdrasil
… or restart the Yggdrasil daemon altogether:
systemctl restart yggdrasil
After installation
Read the Linux platform page page for further information about Linux platform support.
