If you want to access your VM from another Redbrick server, you can ignore the login details (passwords, etc.) on the page that comes up after you turn on the VM. If you're logging in from an external computer, take note of those details and follow the instructions below - and/or on that page - carefully.

New page

First of all, you will need to install an ssh server on your VM before you can ssh to it. You will probably need to do this with a [[RBVM_Vnc|VNC Viewer]]. When your in your VM, you can install OpenSSH with:

apt-get install openssh-server

== Access from other Redbrick servers ==

Note your VM's IP address from the VM Management page. To login simply ssh to that IP address, with your VM user/pass (not your Redbrick login details).

ssh username@IP_ADDRESS

== Access from an external machine ==

You will need to setup a tunnel to get to your VM, if you're accessing from outside Redbrick. To do this, type:

ssh -L 5900:136.206.16.1:5957 username@login.redbrick.dcu.ie

This binds port 5900 on your own computer to daniel (the server with the VMs). So to connect to your VM:

ssh 127.0.0.1 -p 5900
