Here I am installing on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS

Install nimble server

# sudo bash -c ‘echo -e “deb http://nimblestreamer.com/ubuntu bionic/”>> /etc/apt/sources.list’

# wget -q -O – http://nimblestreamer.com/gpg.key | sudo apt-key add –

# sudo apt-get update

# sudo apt-get install nimble

# sudo apt-get install nimble-srt

Register server in WMSPanel

# sudo /usr/bin/nimble_regutil

!! Replace [email protected] & password with your https://wmspanel.com/dashboard login details !!

Please enter your company’s wmspanel admin account login (email): [email protected]

Please enter your company’s wmspanel admin password: password

Note:
Your Nimble is currently configured to run as root user.
If you’d like to run it as a normal user, please remove /etc/nimble/run_as_root file.
You can also provide –run-as-normal-user option to nimble_regutil
to automatically handle this during the registration.

Restart server

# sudo service nimble restart

Nimble is working on port 8081 …. you will see your newly installed server will list up in WMSPanel Server List https://wmspanel.com/server

http://domain.com:8081/

Install Free Certbot SSL

!! None of the above on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (bionic) !!
https://certbot.eff.org/lets-encrypt/ubuntubionic-other

# sudo snap install core; sudo snap refresh core
# sudo snap install –classic certbot
# sudo ln -s /snap/bin/certbot /usr/bin/certbot

# sudo certbot certonly –standalone

!! Follow all steps
!! Read Carefully to input Email & Domain info

It will give you Free SSL Keys

# ls -la – /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.com/

Now Edit Nimble Config to configure SSL keys

# vi /etc/nimble/nimble.conf

ADD at End of file … please replace “domain.com” with your Real Domain name …. I am using port 30443 for Nimble SSL HTTPS

ssl_port = 30443
ssl_certificate = /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.com/fullchain.pem
ssl_certificate_key = /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.com/privkey.pem

# sudo service nimble restart

it will give you Nimble HTTPS link

https://domain.com:30443/

Auto Certbot Renew

# vi /root/certbot.sh

#!/bin/sh

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
