Remote access via SSH to lab

[poleary]

In previous courses like RH294 we were able to direct SSH from local client to the classroom workstation. Is that still possible for this DO374 course?

I know I can likely setup a reverse tunnel by first connection from the workstation to my external IP; but that assumes I expose SSH on my firewall.

@poleary Unfortunately, the direct SSH for the lab of DO374 is not available yet but it should be available in the near future along with the direct Workstation terminal access which makes the copy/paste much easier.

I've never heard of this before, can you please explain this a bit? And is it available now, 6 months later?

@Wasim_Raja -

SSH access isn't enabled for any of our courses provided through RHLS. We do have several courses internally with SSH access on our internal Red Hat University (RHU), but this isn't generally available. @poleary must have accessed one of the courses that had both SSH enabled and the web console.

For now, most courses will have the Classroom Web Terminal which is as close as we can get to SSH that will give a session to the workstation VM through Jupyter notebooks.

Good day.
Coming back to this topic again.
As other people stated, i was able to direct (through a jumphost) SSH from local client (my laptop) to the classroom workstation.
Why is that not possible for this DO374 course?

Just recently done for a couple of training courses, and more in the past.
(I was within the VPN btw)

Using graphical web terminal is not handy/practical at all.

Thx n Rgds
