Kasm Server

===========

Kasm Server Installation

Kasm is a platform for isolating desktop environments and browsers.

This setup checks if there are any running Kasm Docker containers. If not, it will install the Kasm server. You can also set it up to keep a persistent storage for the home folders of 5 users per server (Community version allows a maximum of 5 user sessions on one server).

Quick Guide

1. Sign up at Kasm Download and download the latest community version of Kasm Server, then place it in the playbooks/files/ directory.
2. List Kasm servers in the inventory/hosts.ini file.
3. Install required Ansible roles by running ansible-galaxy install -r inventory/requirements.yml.
4. Execute the playbook with ansible-playbook site.yml.
