  1. Use Cases

SSH

In this guide, we demonstrate how to use SSH NoPorts to SSH to a remote machine.

PreviousUse CasesNextSFTP

Last updated 28 days ago

The command should look like:

sshnp -f @<client> -t @<device> -d <device name> -r @<relay> -i <your ssh key>

Example:

sshnp -f @alice_client -t @alice_device -d my_server -r @rv_am -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

Auto SSH key upload

If you don't have an ssh key uploaded on the remote machine, you can upload one by adding -s to the command:

sshnp -f @alice_client -t @alice_device -d my_server -r @rv_am -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 -s

Note: this feature can be disabled in sshnpd. If you get an error when using -s, it is likely that the administrator disabled this feature for security reasons.
