Tutorial Steps
1 Download the Script
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhmdali94/Docker/main/remote-access/meshcentral/meshcentral-ubuntu.sh
2 Make it Executable
chmod +x meshcentral-ubuntu.sh
3 Run the Installer
The script installs Docker if needed, pulls the ghcr.io/ylianst/meshcentral image, and starts it on HTTPS port 8446 with persistent data, files, and backups volumes.
sudo bash meshcentral-ubuntu.sh
4 Create the Admin Account
Open your browser over HTTPS and create the first account — it automatically becomes the server administrator:
https://<your-server-ip>:8446
