OSTP Linux Server Binaries

Binaries

• ostp-server (4.0 MB) - OSTP Stealth VPN Server
• oncp-master (4.7 MB) - CDN Control Plane Master Node

System Requirements

• OS: Linux x86_64 (Debian 13+ / Ubuntu 24.04+ / RHEL 9+)
• glibc: 2.41+ (built on Debian Trixie)
• Libraries: libssl3, libcrypto3
• Privileges: Root/sudo required for:
  • Binding to privileged ports (< 1024)
  • TUN device creation
  • System DNS modification

Installation

1. Install System Dependencies

Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y libssl3 openssl ca-certificates

RHEL/Rocky/AlmaLinux:

sudo dnf install -y openssl-libs openssl ca-certificates

2. Deploy Binaries

# Copy binaries
sudo cp ostp-server oncp-master /usr/local/bin/
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/{ostp-server,oncp-master}

# Verify
ostp-server --version
oncp-master --version

ostp-server Setup

Generate PSK

ostp-server gen-key

Save the output securely - this is your Pre-Shared Key.

Configuration File

Create /etc/ostp/server.json:

{
  "listen": "0.0.0.0:8443",
  "psk": "YOUR_64_CHAR_HEX_PSK_HERE",
  "max_connections": 1024,
  "log_level": "info"
}

Node Enrollment (Optional)

For automatic CDN registration:

{
  "listen": "0.0.0.0:8443",
  "psk": "AUTO",
  "master_node_url": "https://master.ospab.internal:8080",
  "node_name": "node-us-west-1",
  "hardware_id": "unique-hardware-id",
  "region": "us-west",
  "country_code": "US",
  "max_connections": 1024,
  "log_level": "info"
}

When psk: "AUTO", the server will:

1. Submit enrollment request to master node
2. Display Node ID
3. Wait for administrator approval
4. Update config with approved PSK

Systemd Service

Create /etc/systemd/system/ostp-server.service:

[Unit]
Description=OSTP Stealth VPN Server
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=root
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/ostp-server -c /etc/ostp/server.json

# Security hardening
NoNewPrivileges=true
PrivateTmp=true
ProtectSystem=strict
ProtectHome=true
ReadWritePaths=/etc/ostp

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Enable and start:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable ostp-server
sudo systemctl start ostp-server
sudo systemctl status ostp-server

oncp-master Setup

Initialize Database

# Create data directory
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/oncp
cd /var/lib/oncp

# Initialize (creates oncp.db)
oncp-master stats

Configuration

Create /etc/oncp/config.env:

ONCP_DATABASE=/var/lib/oncp/oncp.db
ONCP_LISTEN=0.0.0.0:8080
RUST_LOG=info

Run API Server

oncp-master serve --listen 0.0.0.0:8080

Systemd Service

Create /etc/systemd/system/oncp-master.service:

[Unit]
Description=ONCP Master Node - CDN Control Plane
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=oncp
Group=oncp
WorkingDirectory=/var/lib/oncp

Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10s

# Security hardening
NoNewPrivileges=true
PrivateTmp=true
ProtectSystem=strict
ProtectHome=true
ReadWritePaths=/var/lib/oncp

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Create user and start:

sudo useradd -r -s /bin/false oncp
sudo chown -R oncp:oncp /var/lib/oncp
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable oncp-master
sudo systemctl start oncp-master
sudo systemctl status oncp-master

Node Enrollment Workflow

On Master Node:

# List pending enrollment requests
oncp-master node pending

# Approve node (generates PSK)
oncp-master node approve <NODE_ID>

# Copy the generated PSK

On Server Node:

Update /etc/ostp/server.json with approved PSK:

{
  "listen": "0.0.0.0:8443",
  "psk": "APPROVED_PSK_FROM_MASTER_HERE",
  "master_node_url": "https://master.ospab.internal:8080",
  ...
}

Restart server:

sudo systemctl restart ostp-server

API Endpoints

Master Node REST API (default port 8080):

• GET /health - Health check
• GET /api/v1/nodes - List nodes
• POST /api/v1/nodes - Register node
• POST /api/v1/nodes/:id/checkin - Node heartbeat
• GET /api/v1/nodes/best?country=US&limit=3 - CDN steering
• POST /api/v1/enrollment/request - Submit enrollment
• GET /api/v1/enrollment/pending - List pending
• POST /api/v1/enrollment/:id/approve - Approve node
• GET /api/v1/users - List users
• POST /api/v1/users - Create user
• GET /api/v1/sni - List SNIs
• POST /api/v1/sni - Update SNI
• GET /api/v1/stats - Network statistics

Firewall Configuration

ostp-server (Server Node)

# Allow OSTP port
sudo ufw allow 8443/tcp comment 'OSTP Server'

# Allow outbound to master node
sudo ufw allow out 8080/tcp comment 'ONCP Master'

oncp-master (Master Node)

# Allow API access
sudo ufw allow 8080/tcp comment 'ONCP API'

# Restrict to server IPs only (recommended)
sudo ufw allow from <SERVER_IP> to any port 8080 proto tcp

Logs

# ostp-server logs
sudo journalctl -u ostp-server -f

# oncp-master logs
sudo journalctl -u oncp-master -f

Troubleshooting

Check Binary Compatibility

ldd ostp-server
ldd oncp-master

If you see "not found" errors, install missing libraries.

Check glibc Version

ldd --version

Required: glibc 2.41+ (Debian 13+ / Ubuntu 24.04+)

For older distributions, build from source:

cargo build -p ostp-server -p oncp-master --release --target x86_64-unknown-linux-musl

Permission Errors

Ensure running as root or with appropriate capabilities:

sudo setcap cap_net_bind_service,cap_net_admin+ep /usr/local/bin/ostp-server

Network Connectivity

Test master node API:

curl http://localhost:8080/health

Expected: {"status":"ok","version":"0.1.0","nodes_online":0}

Security Notes

1. PSK Protection: Never commit PSKs to version control
2. TLS: Use reverse proxy (nginx/caddy) for TLS termination on API
3. Firewall: Restrict master node API to known server IPs
4. Updates: Keep binaries updated for security patches
5. Monitoring: Use oncp-master dashboard for network health
