===== Cockpit =====
Cockpit is a management system for Linux servers. 
It is typically accessed on port 9090 using either the server IP address or DNS name.

==== Installation ====
=== Debian ===
<code bash>
apt install cockpit cockpit-bridge cockpit-dashboard cockpit-docker cockpit-machines cockpit-networkmanager cockpit-packagekit cockpit-storaged cockpit-system cockpit-ws
</code>

==== Certificate ====
You need to create one file containing the certificate, the intermediate certificate and the certificate key.  
The easiest is to cat the files together.
<code bash>
cat server.crt > ssl.cert
cat myCA.pem >> ssl.cert
cat server.key >> ssl.cert
</code>

Next copy the cert to **/etc/cockpit/ws-certs.d** and restart cockpit.
<code bash>
systemctl restart cockpit
</code>

You can check which certificate is used by cockpit with
<code bash>
remotectl certificate
</code>
==== Virtual Machines ====
=== Serial Console ===
To get a serial console to a vm you need to enable getty to listen to the serial port.
<code bash>
systemctl enable --now serial-getty@ttyS0
</code>
