Tunneling with DreamCompute
These steps set up remote access to a home network using an ssh tunnel to a DreamCompute host.
- Create a DreamCompute instance (default parameters OK).
- On home UNIX server, create a key pair and upload the public key for access to the instance.
- Edit
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
and add this at the end:ClientAliveInterval 30 ClientAliveCountMax 3 Match User ubuntu GatewayPorts yes
- Edit the Access & Security settings:
Manage Rules Add Rule: Custom TCP Rule, Ingress, Open Port 12345 (for example), Remote CIDR = 0.0.0.0/0.
- Create an A-type DNS record for the DreamCompute IP address with a name like
casa.example.com
. - To create and test the tunnel use the command below on the home server, then try to connect to port 12345 on
casa.example.com
.$ ssh -NR '*:12345:192.168.1.123:54321'
- On home server, create a ~/.ssh/config file with something like this…
Host tunnel HostName casa.example.com User ubuntu IdentityFile ~/.ssh/cloud.key BatchMode yes EscapeChar none RemoteForward *:9190 192.168.1.190:2190 RemoteForward *:9191 192.168.1.191:2191 RemoteForward *:9999 192.168.1.192:2222
- Add this line to crontab:
@reboot autossh -N tunnel
