Remote access to your SME Server

From SME Server
Jump to navigationJump to search

Access to the terminal of your remote sme

ssh root@ip-sme-or-remote-hostname

or

ssh -pX root@ip-sme-or-remote-host (X is the port listened by ssh service)


Important.png Note:
you need to forward in your router the port 22 (or whatever you decide) to your internal sme's ip and allow ssh in the server-manager with the root login and Password Authentication (Security/Remote Access menu). You can enhance security by disabling the root connection : Allow administrative command line access over secure shell NO

Keep in mind that you need to set the service to public access (entire internet) if you want to be accessible by ssh outside of you network (see the Denyhosts contrib for banning hosts which failed too many login attempts to your ssh deamon.)
