I am ssh'd into a remote server would like to manipulate data on that machine without having to constantly push and pull the data around via my repository.
Can I run an IPython Notebook on that server and access/interact with it on my local browser? If so, how do I go about setting this up?
This will get you up and running if your server and your machine are on a LAN, and the server has one open port (there, 9999).
This will make it work even if you only have ssh access to the remote server. It works with as an ssh tunnel with port forwarding.

I have a virtual machine running a domain with LetsEncrypt.
But there's no way I can run that remote server inside the same VPN I use on my local computer.
So the question is: Is there any way to run an image or copy of the remote machine, complete with the remote SSL certificate, on my local machine? I do have some familiarity with Vagrant boxes, but am not aware how to do something like this.
Trying to setup ssh server on my WSL 2 for local development. I can connect to it from Putty but having trouble connecting from another machine in the same local network. I try to follow scripts from WSL GitHub Issue #4150 but I might not be able to modify the script well enough to make it work for the use case. I'm getting a connection timed out message error.
Thank you in advance.
I'm in a computer science program at my university (Ryerson) and I'm learning perl programming.
The way we're learning is by hosting perl scripts on our university's server and doing stuff with them.
I'm away from the university and the university's server is very strict about which IP's can use the www2 subdomain (which is the subdomain that runs perl scripts). And the IP I'm working from gets me the error:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /~w3dixon/cgi-bin/lab4.cgi on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Debian) Server at www2.scs.ryerson.ca Port 80
Here's the link, if you want to try to access the script yourself.
So I'm being blocked. Normally I'd contact the sys admin and get them to unblock me, but a working perl script is due tonight. (I also tried using a VPN, it was blocked as well).
My solution was to SSH with terminal on my mac and/or Putty on my PC into Ryerson's server and use the unix command 'lynx' to run my scripts (since they aren't blocking their own IPs).
I was having some success, until I tried to use the perl get method from an html form (I copy pasted a script from https://www.tutorialspoint.com/perl/perl_cgi.htm just to get started, to see if syntactically correct code would work properly with my lynx strategy).
So when I was working on my script using a terminal at the university (with google chrome), my scripts worked fine.
Ryerson (my university), doesn't have a remote access program set up (other than ssh), but is there a way to access my webpage through their servers on a GUI browser installed on my machine?
An SSH tunnel is most likely the most feasible and easiest way to do what you want. Set up the tunnel like this:
ssh -L8080:www2.scs.ryerson.ca:80 username#www2.scs.ryerson.ca
If the www2 server is not the host you SSH to, simply replace the second instance of it in the command with the SSH server.
I use port 8080 here, as that alleviates you from needing root privileges.
Now, on your local workstation, in your browser, browse to:
http://localhost:8080
Has anybody tried out virtual machines in the UK area of bluemix?
I am able to start a vm but get an timeout when i try so connect to the vm via ssh.
I used the std Debian image that can be choosen on setup time and injected an ssh key for connecting. The security group I used was allow_all.
When trying to ping or to connect via ssh directly or the openstack cli the connection times out.

There was a bug in the setup of the vm, so I actually had no chance to access it.
I have a problem setting up a ipython cluster on a Windows server and connecting to this ipcluster using a ssh connection. I tried following the tutorial on https://ipython.org/ipython/doc/dev/parallel/parallel_process.html#ssh, but I have problems to understand what the options mean exactly and what parameters are to use exactly...
Could anyone help a total noob to set up an ipcluster? (Let's say the remote machine has ip 192.168.0.1 and the local machine has 192.168.0.2)
If you scroll roughly to the middle of the page https://ipython.org/ipython-doc/dev/parallel/parallel_process.html#ssh you will find this:
Current limitations of the SSH mode of ipcluster are:
Untested and unsupported on Windows. Would require a working ssh on Windows. Also, we are using shell scripts to setup and execute
commands on remote hosts.
That means, there is no easy way to build an ipcluster with ssh connection on windows (if it works at all).
Do you really need to connect the machines with an ssh connection? I guess it's possible with a ssh client on each windows machine, but if you are in a trusted local network you can also decide not to use the loopback interface and just expose the ports...
Sure you can start controller and engine separately! For further examples about ports (if you have problems with firewalls) see also How to setup ssh tunnel for ipython cluster (ipcluster)
