TeamSpeak3 server installation on a server with CentOS 8

Posted on by

The following guide explains how to install the server on the server TeamSpeak3 CentOS 8 with a few simple steps.
Let's get started!

For starters make off SELinux
edit file:

1
nano /etc/selinux/config

And set:

1
SELINUX=disabled

Save the file and install the necessary packages:

1
dnf install nano wget perl tar net-tools bzip2

Go to the installation of the TS server.

We create a new user:

1
adduser teamspeak -d /opt/teamspeak

The next step is to download Teamspeak server packages

1
wget http://dl.4players.de/ts/releases/3.8.0/teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64-3.8.0.tar.bz2

I unpack:

1
tar xvf teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64-3.8.0.tar.bz2

Move files to a location /opt/teamspeak/

1
mv teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64/* /opt/teamspeak/

We accept license

1
touch /opt/teamspeak/.ts3server_license_accepted

The next step is assigning the appropriate permissions:

1
chown -R teamspeak: /opt/teamspeak

We create a service to our ts boot with system.

create a file

1
nano /lib/systemd/system/teamspeak.service
