Installing udpstp
Install udpstp on both Test hosts. Choose your platform below, then follow Getting started to share a key and run a Test.
Installation methods
| Platform | Method | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | Archive installer, signed apt and dnf repositories | Available |
| Linux and macOS | Homebrew | Available |
| Windows | PowerShell installer and portable download | Available |
| Windows | WinGet | Awaiting catalog approval |
| All three | Cargo source build and cargo-binstall | Available |
Linux
The installer selects a matching binary and places it in ~/.local/bin.
curl -fsSL https://udpstp.com/install.sh | sh
Run it again to update. It leaves your shell configuration unchanged. If ~/.local/bin is outside your PATH, add it using your shell’s configuration.
macOS
brew install pederbe/tap/udpstp
Use brew upgrade udpstp for updates and brew uninstall udpstp to remove it.
Windows
In PowerShell
irm https://udpstp.com/install.ps1 | iex
The installer uses your account’s LocalAppData\Programs\udpstp folder and adds it to PATH. You can use udpstp in the current PowerShell window immediately. Sign out and back in to refresh PATH for other applications. The Windows guide covers key-file permissions, firewall rules and running the Server as a service.
WinGet catalog approval is pending. The PowerShell installer and portable download are available now.
Signed Linux packages
The apt and dnf repositories provide normal package-manager updates and the Server’s systemd unit. The service stays disabled until you configure it and requires systemd 247 or later. Hosting a Server covers configuration and startup.
Debian and Ubuntu
Add the repository once, then install udpstp
curl -fsSL https://packages.udpstp.com/udpstp.gpg | sudo tee "/usr/share/keyrings/udpstp.gpg" >/dev/null
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/udpstp.gpg] https://packages.udpstp.com/apt stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/udpstp.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install udpstp
Updates arrive with apt upgrade. Remove the package with sudo apt remove udpstp.
Fedora, RHEL and similar distributions
sudo curl -fsSLo /etc/yum.repos.d/udpstp.repo https://packages.udpstp.com/udpstp.repo
