Connect to a different ssh port rather than port 22 behind a firewall

Open coskun1990 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

I have VPS servers where I am connecting to SSH on a different port rather than port 22. I can't change this unfortunately. On some places I can't connect to SSH on different ports because of the firewall blocked most of the ports. How can I connect SSH to another port while it's blocked by the firewall? I saw a "port forwarding" tab. Probably this is the feature I'm looking for, but how to use it? Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Coskun

Hi Coskun1990, You define a new site for each server you want to manage. When you click the Add button to create a new session, it should present a pane on the right with a Connection tab at the top left of the pane. You can change the destination port there to match the port to which your SSH server listens. I believe the port forwarding feature allows you use a proxy server to connect to the server you want to manage. Hope this helps.
