STOBE Linux Setup Guide
Use this guide when StobeServer runs on a Linux machine while Kenshi runs on a Windows PC. This is an advanced community setup. The normal DwemerDistro installation is recommended for most players.
Linux Setup Guide
Prepare The Linux Machine
- Install and start StobeServer using your Linux or container setup.
- Keep the Linux machine and gaming PC on the same local network.
- Allow incoming connections to StobeServer on port
8083.
Find The Linux Address
Find the local network address of the Linux machine. It will normally look like 192.168.1.101.
hostname -I
Use the address shown for your local network connection.
Point STOBE To The Linux Machine
On the gaming PC, open StobeCustom.ini inside the STOBE mod folder and use the Linux machine's address.
ServerHost=192.168.1.101
ServerPort=8083
Replace the example address with the address of your Linux machine. Then open the STOBE server in a browser:
http://192.168.1.101:8083/StobeServer/
Connect A Voice Service
If text-to-speech also runs on Linux, enter the same Linux address and the port shown by that voice service in STOBE's Text-to-Speech settings.
Test The Connection
- Open the StobeServer address from the gaming PC.
- Confirm the STOBE dashboard loads.
- Start Kenshi and check that STOBE connects.
If the page does not load, check the Linux firewall and confirm port 8083 is open on your local network.
