Hi, Thanks for the reply..I did look at the wiki and tried the following.. I set up a server/client reverse connection and trired to connect.. but i coudn't.. this was the command that i gave for the server.. olivegarden is the hostname of my laptop.
ssh -i /home/dagarshali/.ssh/id_rsa [email protected] node083 pvserver --reverse-connection --server-port=11111 --client-host=olivegarden here node083 is the node where the pvserver was launched... so wasn't sure how to give that info in this command.. or am i doing something wrong.. when you say that start the cient, am i just creating a server/client and connect in manual mode..?
