## Setting up the web server on your wii
9. Install nginx, sudo, and git using **`pacman -S nginx sudo git`**
10. Create a new non-root user with **`useradd --create-home [your username]`**
11. Set a password for your user with **`passwd [your username]`**
10. Create a new non-root user with **`useradd --create-home {your username}`**
11. Set a password for your user with **`passwd {your username}`**
12. Run the command **`echo '%wheel ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' > /etc/sudoers.d/wheel`** to enable give sudo access to all users in the wheel group
13. Run the command **`usermod -aG wheel [your username]`** to add your user to the wheel group
13. Run the command **`usermod -aG wheel {your username}`** to add your user to the wheel group
14. Enable the ssh server systemd service with the command **`systemctl enable --now sshd`**. It should now start automatically upon boot.
15. From your primary linux machine, run **`ssh-copy-id -i [your ssh key] [your linux wii's username]@[your linux wii's IP address]`** and enter the password you set in step 11
- **`[your ssh key]`** is your ssh identity file, likely found in **`~/.ssh/`**, ending in **`.pub`**
- **`[your linux wii's username]`** is the username you set in step 10
- **`[your linux wii's IP address]`** is the network address of your wii. You can find this by entering the command **`ip address show | grep "inet "`**
15. From your primary linux machine, run **`ssh-copy-id -i {your ssh key} {your linux wii's username}@{your linux wii's IP address}`** and enter the password you set in step 11
- **`{your ssh key}`** is your ssh identity file, likely found in **`~/.ssh/`**, ending in **`.pub`**
- **`{your linux wii's username}`** is the username you set in step 10
- **`{your linux wii's IP address}`** is the network address of your wii. You can find this by entering the command **`ip address show | grep "inet "`**
- The address will probably look something like **`192.168.1.130`**. It will not be the one starting with **`127`** nor will it be the one ending with **`255`**
16. Attempt to log in over ssh from your primary linux machine using the command **`ssh [your linux wii's username]@[your linux wii's IP address]`**
16. Attempt to log in over ssh from your primary linux machine using the command **`ssh {your linux wii's username}@{your linux wii's IP address}`**
17. Once connected to a shell over ssh, run **`sudo whoami`** and enter your user password when prompted
- If the output after entering your passwrd is **`root`** then your user has successfully been given sudo priveleges
- you may now log the wii's **`root`** user out of any active shells
18. Enable the nginx server systemd service with the command **`systemctl enable --now nginx`**. It should now start automatically upon boot.
19. Navigate to **`http://[your linux wii's IP address]`** in a web browser on a device connected to the same network as the Wii. You should be greeted with the nginx splash page.

20. Open the nginx config with **`sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf`**. In the **`http`** block, locate the first **`server`** block, and change **`/usr/share/nginx/html`** to **`/usr/local/share/nginx/html`**
21. Press ctrl+x to close the file, press y to confirm saving changes, then press enter to confirm the filename
22. Run the command **`sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/nginx/html`** to create the local nginx resource directory
