BE Client Install Script (Recommended)

Short description: Automated installer that sets up the BE Client on your VPS or dedicated server with minimal interaction.

Disclaimer

DISCLAIMER: This is powerful security software and should be used responsibly.

Why this

  • One-command style setup
  • Handles common dependencies and system wiring for you
  • Best option if you don’t need step-by-step manual control

Manual install alternative: ../be-client/README.md

Prerequisites

  • Linux server (VPS or Dedicated)
  • Shell access (bash) with sudo/root privileges
  • tar installed (to extract the archive)

Quick start

  1. Copy the installer archive to your server and extract it:
cd /path/where/you/placed/the/archive
ls -lh be-client-install-script.tar.gz
sudo tar -xzf be-client-install-script.tar.gz
cd be-client-install-script*/
  1. Run the installer script:
chmod +x be-install
sudo ./be-install
  1. Follow the prompts. The script will:
  • Install required components (as needed)
  • Configure and start the BE Client
  • Print where to check status/logs

Cron scheduling (every 5 minutes)

Run every 5 minutes via cron:

Without logging:

*/5 * * * * /absolute/path/to/your/be-client >/dev/null 2>&1

With logging:

*/5 * * * * /absolute/path/to/your/be-client >>/var/log/be-client.log 2>&1

Use absolute paths; create /var/log/ directory if missing.

Next steps

  • Verify the service status (the installer will indicate how)
  • Keep the script folder for re-runs or reference
  • For advanced/fully manual control, see: ../be-client/README.md

Screenshots

Install the script with the automated installer or set it up manually—both provide the same blocking functionality. Below is example screenshot showing the BE Client installation process:
