# Install Psono CE

Installation instruction for the Community Edition of Psono, using Psono's combo image which bundles the server, web client and admin portal.

# Preamble

At this point we assume that you already have a postgres database running, ready for connections. If not follow this guide to setup postgres.

# Installation

Update database credentials / secrets / paths like described in the comments

Test E-Mail

The most tedious step is usually for me to get e-mail working. To make this step easier, we offer a small test script which will send a test e-mail.

To send a test e-mail to something@something.com execute:
```
docker run --rm \
  -v /opt/docker/psono/settings.yaml:/root/.psono_server/settings.yaml \
  -ti psono/psono-combo:latest python3 ./psono/manage.py sendtestmail something@something.com
```
If you receive this test e-mail, it should be configured properly.

Prepare the database

docker run --rm \
  -v /opt/docker/psono/settings.yaml:/root/.psono_server/settings.yaml \
  -ti psono/psono-combo:latest python3 ./psono/manage.py migrate

Create a config.json with the following content in e.g. /opt/docker/psono-client/:

{
  "backend_servers": [{
    "title": "Psono.pw",
    "url": "https://psono.example.com/server"
  }],
  "base_url": "https://psono.example.com/",
  "allow_custom_server": true,
  "allow_registration": true,
  "allow_lost_password": true,
  "disable_download_bar": false,
  "authentication_methods": ["AUTHKEY", "LDAP"],
  "saml_provider": []
}

Adjust the title and domain of the URLs accordingly.

TIP

If you want to configure your admin portal different, them create a second config.json.

(optional) Change domain for login

You don't see it yet, but later in the login form your username will be a composition of something that the user defines, and a domain, forming the full username that looks similar to an email address (e.g. something@example.com).

The client will parse the base_url parameter from the config.json. Sometimes you would want to specify a different domain. You can do that by adjusting the config.json as shown below:
```
{
  "backend_servers": [{
    ...
    "domain": "other.com",
    ...
  }],
  ...
}
```

Run the Psono server container and expose the server port

docker run --name psono-combo \
    --sysctl net.core.somaxconn=65535 \
    -v /opt/docker/psono/settings.yaml:/root/.psono_server/settings.yaml \
    -v /opt/docker/psono-client/config.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/config.json \
    -v /opt/docker/psono-client/config.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/portal/config.json \
    -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 10200:80 psono/psono-combo:latest

This will start the Psono server on port 10200. If you open now http://your-ip:10200/server/info/ you should see something like this:

{"info":"{\"version\": \"....}

If you don't, please make sure no firewall is blocking your request.

Setup cleanup job

Execute the following command:

crontab -e

and add the following line:

30 2 * * * docker run --rm -v /opt/docker/psono/settings.yaml:/root/.psono_server/settings.yaml -ti psono/psono-combo:latest python3 ./psono/manage.py cleartoken >> /var/log/cron.log 2>&1

Setup Reverse Proxy

To run the Psono password manager in production, a reverse proxy is needed, to handle the ssl offloading and glue the Psono server and webclient together. Follow the guide to setup reverse proxy as a next step.

# Note: Installation behind Firewall

If you have put your installation behind a firewall, you have to whitelist some ports / adjust some settings, that all features work:

Incoming TCP connections (usually Port 443) from clients to servers
Incoming TCP connections (usually Port 443) from fileservers to servers
Incoming TCP connections (usually Port 80) from clients to servers (will do the redirect to https)
Outgoing TCP 5432 to database server
Outgoing TCP / UDP 123 connection to time.google.com: Psono requires a synced time for various reasons (Google Authenticator, YubiKey, Throttling, Replay protection, ...) Therefore it has a healthcheck, to compare the local time to a time server (by default time.google.com). You can specify your own timeserver in the settings.yaml with the "TIME_SERVER" parameter. If you are confident that your server always has the correct time you can also disable the healthcheck with "HEALTHCHECK_TIME_SYNC_ENABLED: False".
Outgoing TCP 443 connection to api*.yubico.com: Psono validates YubiKey OTP tokens against the official Yubikey Servers. You can use your own YubiKey server with the "YUBICO_API_URLS" parameter in the settings.yaml
Outgoing TCP 443 connection to api*.duosecurity.com: Psono initiates connection to the Duo api server, whenever someone uses Duo's 2 Factor authentication. Psono also supports Duo's auth proxy duo.com/docs/authproxy-reference (opens new window) by configuring DUO_PROXY_HOST, DUO_PROXY_PORT and DUO_PROXY_TYPE
Outgoing TCP connection (usually 25, 465, 587 or 2525) to your email server
