Hello,
My use case is that I would like to connect to a nxserver (NoMachine) running on a compute host.
My app and my cluster are already set up so that I can book a compute node and If, on my local host, I establish manually the ssh tunnel as :
ssh -L 4000:compute_host:4000 login_node
I can then proceed with the NoMachine player and successfully connect to the compute host. If important, I must say I’m using the NoMachine free version : connecting to the nxserver is only possible with the desktop nxplayer, not with the web-based player.
Do you know if there is a way that an interactive app could set up such a ssh tunnel. I believe I could use the find_port to locate a free port on my login node and I would then indicate in the view.html.erb the parameters that the user should then use in the nxplayer to connect.
I believe there is one thing I’m not completely understanding about how to combine ood with my requirement to establish this ssh tunnel.
Thank you for your help.
Jeremy
