Access to sandbox Pi

• url: http://hub.xpub.nl/sandbox
• tinc IP: 10.0.0.11

How to SSH to HUB nodes

On the user's personal machine (where the public key was generated) just:

ssh -J xpub.nl:2501 $IP

If for any reason it doesnt work, please send us the output of:

ssh -J xpub.nl:2501 $IP -vvv

~/.ssh/config

Here is a ssh configuration which should allow you to ssh easily from your local machine to one of the Hub nodes

using only:

ssh hub.nodename

By adding to ~/.ssh/config the following configuration, and changing with the correct details:

Host hub.nodename 
User username
Hostname  10.0.0.XXX
ProxyJump username@xpub.nl:2501
Identityfile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Serveraliveinterval 30

Where:

• nodename: is the name you would like to give this node of hub.
• XXX: termination if node's IP
• username: your username in the Pi and Xpub server (should be the same)
• ~/.ssh/id_rsa location of the private keys
