How to Install Password Pusher on OpenBSD

This tutorial will guide you on how to install Password Pusher on OpenBSD. Password Pusher is a web application that allows you to securely share passwords and secrets with others.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have the following:

A running instance of OpenBSD
A user account with administrator privileges
A web server installed and configured on the machine (such as Apache or Nginx)
Git installed on the machine

Installation Steps

Clone the Password Pusher repository from GitHub:

$ git clone https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher.git

Install the required Perl modules:

$ sudo cpanm --installdeps PasswordPusher

Copy the configuration file to the appropriate location:

$ sudo cp PasswordPusher/config/passwordpusher.conf.example /etc/passwordpusher.conf

Edit the configuration file to match your environment. You will need to set the following parameters:

# Listen port
listen = 127.0.0.1:8080

# Database configuration
database_type = Pg
database_name = passwordpusher
database_user = passwordpusher
database_password = <insert_your_database_password_here>

# Email configuration
smtp_host = <insert_your_smtp_host_here>
smtp_port = 587
smtp_username = <insert_your_smtp_username_here>
smtp_password = <insert_your_smtp_password_here>
from_address = <insert_your_from_address_here>

Create the database:

$ sudo -u _postgresql createdb passwordpusher

Run the database migration:

$ sudo -u _passwordpusher perl PasswordPusher/script/passwordpusher_create.pl deploy

Start the application server:

$ sudo -u _passwordpusher hypnotoad PasswordPusher/script/passwordpusher

Configure your web server to proxy requests to the application server. For example, if you are using Nginx, you can create a virtual host configuration file at /etc/nginx/sites-available/pwpush.example.com with the following content:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name pwpush.example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }
}

Activate the virtual host configuration file:
```
$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/pwpush.example.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
```
Note: If you are using Apache, you can use mod_proxy to achieve the same result.
Restart your web server:
```
$ sudo service nginx restart
```

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Password Pusher on OpenBSD. You can now access the application by visiting the URL of your virtual host in a web browser.
