I don't use autossh, I use a systemd service file to establish the connection using an ssh key to connect my private server -> my public server. Them from my public server I "ssh private_user@localhost -p 12345" to connect to my private server, which is password protected due to it being a shared public server. Hope that sheds some light on what you need to do. I can't remember what instructions I followed but something like this looks familiar: https://blog.kylemanna.com/linux/ssh-reverse-tunnel-on-linux-with-systemd/ Ultimately it's just a systemd service file you need to create, enable and start on your private server (Pi), then you can connect back in from your public server. -- Jonathan Steel _______________________________________________ Peterboro mailing list Peterboro@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/peterboro
