Network/VPN

From Makers Local 256

We no longer support a traditional VPN. SSH access for those that need it is the way to go.

Poor Man's VPN

You can use ssh to log into the newvpn box:

ssh hfuller@shop.makerslocal.org

From there, you could ssh to other resources at the shop, or do whatever else you can do from the command line.

You can also use ssh's -L option to forward ports on your local machine to ports on the Makers network, if that's your thing:

ssh -L 2222:cascade:22 tylercrumpton@shop.makerslocal.org

If I were Tyler, this example would expose port 22 on CasCADE as port 2222 on my local computer. See man ssh for more help with this.

Finally, mosh is also available. As you might guess, you can do this:

mosh hfuller@shop.makerslocal.org
