[1]     Install Ajenti.

[root@dlp ~]#  yum -y install http://repo.ajenti.org/ajenti-repo-1.0-1.noarch.rpm

# enable EPEL, too

[root@dlp ~]# yum --enablerepo=epel -y install ajenti

# it does not work on CentOS 7.2, so disable SSL

 "ssl": {

        "enable": false,

[root@dlp ~]# systemctl restart ajenti

                       systemctl enable ajenti

service ajenti restart

chkconfig ajenti on

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=8000/tcp

firewall-cmd --reload

 Ajenti logs into:  tail -f /var/log/ajenti/ajenti.log

Centos-6    

http://domain-name.com:8000    or     http://ip-address:8000

username as:  root

password as:  admin

Step 4. Configure Iptables or firewall your server.

iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m state --state NEW --dport 8000 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 8000 -j ACCEPT

Install Ajenti Control Panel on CentOS 8

Step 1. First, let’s start by ensuring your system is up-to-date and install all required dependency.

dnf install epel-release

dnf update

dnf install gcc python3-devel python3-pip python3-pillow python3-augeas python3-dbus chrony openssl-devel redhat-lsb-core

Step 2. Installing Ajenti Control Panel on CentOS 8.

Now run the following command:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ajenti/ajenti/master/scripts/install.sh | sudo bash -s -

Now we  add repository key Ajenti from the official source:

wget http://repo.ajenti.org/ajenti-repo-1.0-1.noarch.rpm 

rpm -i ajenti-repo-1.0-1.noarch.rpm

Once done, install Ajenti using the following command:

dnf install ajenti

Once successfully installed, now we start the service:

systemctl start ajenti    systemctl enable ajenti

Step 3. Configure firewall for the Anjeti control panel.

Now enabling that port from the firewall will allow us to login into the web interface of the Ajenti server. In order to open port 8000, we’ll need to run the following commands:

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=8000/tcp

firewall-cmd --reload

Step 4. Accessing Anjeti control panel on CentOS.

Anjeti will be available on HTTP port 8000 by default. Open your favorite browser and navigate to http://your-domain.com:8000 or http://server-ip-address:8000 and enter the default username “admin”  or “root” and password is “admin“


###To Start Ajenti service

systemctl start ajenti

###To Stop Ajenti service

systemctl stop ajenti 


How to fix the problem of entering the Ajenti panel

Note: If you can not log in to the Ajenti control panel with your Linux username and password, follow the steps below.

– Open the config.json file with an editor:

vi /etc/ajenti/config.json

– Then find the user you want to enter the Ajenti control panel.

– In the password field, delete the existing password hash and enter your password simply (Plain Text).

– Then save the file and restart the Ajenti service once with the following command:

service agent restart

Troubleshooting

yum clean metadata

Can't access panel at port 8000?

By default, CentOS blocks port 8000 with firewall. Run following to unblock port temporarily.

CentOS / RHEL 6

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8000 -j ACCEPT

Add this line to /etc/sysconfig/iptables file (before the COMMIT line) to unblock it permanently.

CentOS / RHEL 7

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=8000/tcp firewall-cmd --reload
