Module: Latest 1.0.2
@mrmarkuz after installing and configuring ns8-openssh the configuarion page returns back with an empty password field, so there is no way to recover the password?
So once installed, from a remote location, what do I need to do use the new ssh method?
TIA
Yes, the password isn’t shown anymore as a security feature. Just enter a new password to change it.
If you really need to recover it, it’s saved in the environment file:
[root@node1 ~]# runagent -m openssh1 grep PASSWORD environment
PASSWORD=Secret123
It should be used automatically. So you shouldn’t get a warning on the Mac anymore when connecting to the OpenSSH container.
It’s me, but I fail to understand. Normally I login remotely e.g. “ssh root@myserver.com -p 11111”…
If I login like I always do, the message is still there…
Sorry!
Are you really connecting to the OpenSSH container or still to the host system OpenSSH?
On the settings page you can get the right TCP port to connect to:
ssh root@myserver.com -p 20010
Gotcha!
Some more questions:
TIA!
The NS8 host is reachable under IP 10.0.0.1.
ssh user@10.0.0.1

The original SSH server is needed to connect to it but you could remove the firewall port, so it’s not accessible from public anymore.
firewall-cmd --permanent --service=ssh --remove-port=22/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload
Yep, thanks!
Exactly, maybe worthwhile to add this to the readme?
I edited my previous questions and added, can the TCP port be set in settings opposed to predefined?
Many thanks!
Done.
NS8 provides free ports to the apps and my intention was to avoid port conflicts but I’m thinking about it…
Many thanks!
