<div dir="ltr">I thought I had already set you up for using the Amazon passthrough. But here are the steps:<div><br></div><div><ol><li>There is a user at the <a href="https://50.17.210.12:943/admin/">https://50.17.210.12:943/admin/</a> port with username:gonzalo and a password I will send separately.<br></li><li>Sign on there and change your password. You can use this sign on at any time to see if the "sora server" client connection is available at the passthrough.<br></li><li>Then you will need to create a new user without administrative privileges that will become the server's client connection to the vpn. The generation of the keys for the "sora server" is triggered by accessing <a href="https://50.17.210.12:943/">https://50.17.210.12:943/</a> (without admin), and logging on with the credentials you created when you set up the "sora server" user.<br></li><li>When you make this https:// access, the amazon openvpn application will offer to let you download the openvpn client application. I have usually "yum installed" openvpn already. Hit refresh, and you will be given a choice to download an unattended access key file.</li><li>Download the "cient.ovpn" file and change it so something similar to the username you created. Place it in the /etc/openvpn/ directory of "sora server"</li></ol></div><div class="gmail_extra">Sorry I missed your request when it came 3 days ago. </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Jun 13, 2015 at 7:54 PM, Gonzalo Odiard <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:godiard@sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">godiard@sugarlabs.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Could I use your passthrough server to access Sora server?<div>What we should do setup it?</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div>Gonzalo</div></font></span></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="h5"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Jun 13, 2015 at 4:16 PM, George Hunt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:georgejhunt@gmail.com" target="_blank">georgejhunt@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Typically a server is behind some sort of NAT device, and some sort of firewall, and most likely has a variable ip address assigned by the ISP's dhcpd. The trick is to have the server initiate an outgoing conversation to a device on the internet that is always on. I purchased a micro instance on amazon cloud for the purpose.<div><br></div><div>The amazon instance generates keys for clients which permits passthrough conversations between any clients. There's two levels of authentication -- 1. need a vpn key to connect to the amazon instance, and 2. need authentication at the ssh port of the target (preferably a public key in .ssh/authorized_keys on the target -making dictionary attacks less likely).</div><div><br></div><div>But I'm becoming a fan of teamviewer.
