- FAQ: SSH Tunneling in PuTTY
Author: Paul McCullough/ William Goldberg*
We use SSH tunneling to run application admin utilities against 3tera cloud server appliances.
The following assumes the SSH sessions have been configured as discussed in FAQ: 3tera - Enable SSH Terminal Sessions into Server Appliances.
Using SSH Tunnels for HTTP Access
Much the same as above but here we want to use a browser.
- Set up your putty ssh as you might normally (see 3tera - Enable SSH Terminal Sessions into Server Appliances)
- Here is an example that points to an applogic tomcat instance
- Given the above tunnel definition, point you browser to
WARNING
Firefox does some sort of caching here.
To get this work work proerply, start the browser, then start ssh.
Otherwise external sites won't be rendered
If your browser stops rendering external sites:
- close ssh with tunnel
- close browser (clearing cache is not enough)
- start browser
- start ssh with tunnel
