Re: [cobalt-users] ssh on Raq3

Huha, _SURE_ you can (and will i hope ;) ) use SSH

First download the secure shell daemon (sshd) source to your server. SSH may be
obtained from several sites. Choose a
     download site from the following URL:

     http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/ssh-howto.html#where

     At the time of this writing, the current version is: ssh-1.2.27.tar.gz
     Authenticated as root, run the following commands:

     tar -xzf ssh-1.2.27.tar.gz
     cd ssh-1.2.27
     ./configure
     make
     make install

     Copy the following contents into a file named /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd
     ------------- Copy below this line ---------------
     #!/bin/sh

     # Source function library.
     . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

     # Source networking configuration.
     . /etc/sysconfig/network

     # Check that networking is up.
     [ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ] && exit 0

     [ -x /usr/local/sbin/sshd ] || exit 0

     # See how we were called.
     case "$1" in
     start)
     echo -n "Starting sshd: "
     daemon sshd
     echo
     touch /var/lock/subsys/sshd
     ;;
     stop)
     echo -n "Shutting down sshd: "
     killproc sshd
     echo
     rm -f /var/lock/subsys/sshd
     ;;
     status)
     status sshd
     ;;
     restart)
     $0 stop
     $0 start
     ;;
     *)
     echo "Usage: sshd {start|stop|restart|status}"
     exit 1
     esac
     exit 0
     ------------- Copy above this line ---------------
     To start sshd automatically when the server is booted, run the following
     commands:

     chmod +x /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd
     ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85sshd

     To administer your server remotely using ssh to encrypt all traffic, tunnel
port 81   traffic from your local PC to the Cobalt
     server when connecting.

     If you use a unix-based PC, run the following command to connect:

     ssh your.cobaltserver.net -l admin -L 8081:localhost:81
     [enter the admin password when prompted]

     Type the real name of your server in place of the example
     "your.cobaltserver.net".

     Start a web browser on your PC. Enter the following URL:

     http://localhost:8081/.cobalt/sysManage/

     All administrative traffic will then be encrypted.
