Gaming and work collaboration has become an integral part of our lives, and in the process, made communicating with other people essential. This tutorial will show you how to set up a voice server using TeamSpeak.

TeamSpeak is a virtual intercom that allows you to communicate with other people connected to the server. TeamSpeak is popular in gaming events, but in recent years, many people have adopted it for work events, collaboration on projects, and even friendly communications between family and friends.

Installing TeamSpeak Server

To get started, we need to install the TeamSpeak server. Start by launching your browser and navigate to:

https://teamspeak.com/en/downloads/#server

Under Linux, select 32bit or 64bit—download according to your system.

Now that you have the TeamSpeak Server downloaded, we can proceed to the next step.

services.com/releases/server/3.13.3/teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64-3.13.3.tar.bz2

Now extract the archive with tar command as:

tar -xvf teamspeak3-server_linux_amd64-3.13.3.tar.bz2

Next, navigate to the extracted directory and run create a file “.ts3server_license_accepted”. Add the line “license_accepted=1

sudo touch .ts3server_license_accepted
