a pi would do it. and it's not opening it up you open to just one port to just that pi for just the pps
electric cost of a pi is peanuts. cloud would cost you orders of magnitude more. hell I run my own servers domain cloud etc Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message -------- From: Joseph Oprysko <joprys...@gmail.com> Date: 2017-12-01 2:37 PM (GMT-05:00) To: Dan Gahlinger <dgahl...@hotmail.com> Cc: Ray Jewhurst <raywjewhu...@gmail.com>, simh <simh@trailing-edge.com> Subject: Re: [Simh] C9.io Dan, it is easy peasy, but not quite free, as if you want 24/7 access to the box, you have to keep the system running 24-7, so electricity costs. Plus, I’m planning on having others log in as well, thus I don’t want to open up my network like that. That’s why I’m looking for a free hosted/Cloud solution. That way someone else can deal with the rest of the network security. I do enough of that for work anyway, don’t want to have to monitor my home network as thoroughly.

But most ot my computers at home generally don’t run 24/7. Mainly what’s needed for what we both want to be able to do isn’t really a shell account on a shared machine, but literally a dedicated VM instance, but we need to be able to access that instance through a public IP address. On a home network, a private IP Address (192.168.x.x, 172.x.x.x ‘actually I don’t think it’s the whole 172 network’, or a 10.x.x.x) it’s easy enough to setup port forwarding to make it accessible. But on the Cloud based VM’s, I don’t know if there is a way to do it. Well, I know there ARE ways, usually involves paying for the instance, an external address, and possibly the amount of traffic. Actually, I know Bluehost (is it still a thing?) used to give you a VM with public address in combination with their hosting/domain name service. But I’m hoping to find one that will not cost me anything.

I know I’m able to build and execute it in the environment, but what I’d really like to achieve is to have a system (or several) running on various instances. And be able to connect to them from an external IP address, I believe I am able to SSH into an instance, or access it through the web based IDE. An example might be better. Say I setup an HP system running Time-Share Basic. Would I be able to telnet to the TSB instance from various computers? Thank you, Joe -- Normal Person: Hey, it seems that you know a lot.
