On my local machine I have an SSH tunnel setup for postgres like so:
ssh -fNL 5434:127.0.0.1:5432 user#host
Then running psql -h localhost --port 5434 works just fine and dandy, giving me a postgres terminal.
Then, on my VM (VirtualBox), I have the host vmhost defined as 192.168.56.1. SSHing into vmhost works fine- connects to the host.
But, running from the vm psql -h vmhost --port 5434 yields:
psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host "vmhost" (192.168.56.1) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5434?
Is there some kind of SSH tunnel forwarding magic thing that's not happening here? How can I allow this to work?
You want to use the -g option when opening the SSH connection. Otherwise, only localhost itself can connect to the tunnel.
Use
ssh -fNL '*:5434:127.0.0.1:5432' user#host
Note the '*' used as the binding address.

I want to expose my system for accessing via ssh.
After running this ./ngrok tcp 12345, I see:
Forwarding tcp://0.tcp.ngrok.io:15909 -> localhost:12345
In my ~/.ssh/config, I add the following lines, as I have a proxy in my workplace:
Host ngrok
Hostname 0.tcp.ngrok.io
ProxyCommand corkscrew 172.16.2.30 8080 %h %p
To test, I am trying to access my own system from my own system (another shell) via ngrok. Then finally when I access using
ssh -p 15909 ngrok
it says:
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
How do I access it?
See Unable to ssh into remote Linux by ngrok
but also try this from the new shell when you want to ssh into your ngrok
ssh <username>#0.tcp.ngrok.io -p 15909
where username is the user your sshing into
I have a Spark installation running under YARN on a remote cluster, with a firewall between me and the head node. I can use a ssh tunnel to access the head node:
> ssh -N -f -L 10000:remotenode:10000 between_machine
and this setup works, for example, to access a HiveServer2 running on remotenote. If Spark was running in cluster mode, I would need to just do the same for the 7077 port and direct the pyspark client to localhost with
> ssh -N -f -L 7077:remotenode:7077 between_machine
> ./pyspark --master spark://localhost:7077
How can I do that with Spark running under the YARN scheduler?
If you are looking for a port to connect, here is a quote from the doc:
You can access this interface by simply opening
http://:4040 in a web browser. If multiple SparkContexts
are running on the same host, they will bind to successive ports
beginning with 4040 (4041, 4042, etc).
If you are just looking for a more universal way to get to the host via ssh "tunnel", you could try ssh working as socks proxy:
ssh user#host -D 20000
And then configuring your browser to connect via socks proxy (host - localhost, port - 20000).
I'm using SSH tunneling for the first time, so I'm trying to understand how to configure it.
I've got a remote Linux server that hosts a MySQL database that I'm trying to connect to. In order to access the MySQL database directly through a software that only recognizes local databases, I suppose SSH tunneling would be the right way to set up the access, correct?
Now, I'm trying to set up the tunneling on my 'home' computer which is running the software that's trying to access the MySQL database. My first question is whether this is reverse tunneling or normal tunneling? Secondly, is it local tunneling or remote tunneling?
Finally, from what I understand, my code is supposed to look something like
ssh -L 8080:mylinuxserver.mycompany.com:22 myuser#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
Is this correct? Is my source port '22' since I'm using SSH and is my destination port 8080 (or is there something more appropriate)?
When I try to use the above code, I am able to login using my passphrase (since my key is already in the MyLinuxServer) but when I ping localhost:8080, it cannot find the host.
What am I doing wrong?
I've got a remote Linux server that hosts a MySQL database that I'm trying to connect to
The command should be:
ssh -L 8080:localhost:3306 myuser#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
Where:
8080: is hte local port on your workstation
localhost: is corresponding to mylinuxserver.mycompany.com
3306: the MySQL port on above localhost.
then connect (from your workstation) to MySQL as:
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 --port=8080
Besides, ping localhost:8080 is wrong. Ping cannot work that way.
Try this:
ssh -f ssh_user#mylinuxserver.mycompany.com -L 3307:mysql1.example.com:3306 -N
Next, to access the mysql your trying to connect to:
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307
I'm trying to use rsync to connect to an Rsync server. However, our company firewall blocks the 873 port used by rsync.
Using the following proxy configuration with corkscrew in the ~/.ssh/config file, I can bypass the firewall and connect to remote servers with SSH:
ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/corkscrew our-http-proxy.domain.name 8080 %h %p
Thus, with the above configuration, I use ssh the following way, which lets me connect to a remote machine with no problem:
ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 username#remote.machine.name -p 443
My question is, can I use rsync to utilize such ssh tunnel, and connect to the Rsync server?
I so far tried a few ways to have rsync utilize the same ssh proxy configuration. One of them is as follows, which always results in ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host:
rsync -CaLvz -e "ssh -L 873:remote.rsync-server.name:443" remote.rsync-server.name::remote-source-directory /local/target/directory/
Any ideas?
Is it possible to use tunneling to connect to a ssh server via telnet? I'm using an API that can only telnet to a host, but that host will only accept ssh connections. If it is possible, what do I need to do to set that up?
Use netcat and ssh
$ nc -l -p 12345 -c "ssh someone#remotehost.com"
make sure that you have RSA auth setup, since you cannot enter a password.
i think what would work would be to run a telnet server on a local port on the host and use ssh to forward that locally where the api could connect to it; but that's just a bit silly
