I installed on my Ubuntu 16.04 the openssh-server and wanted to access my pc remotely through the terminal of other networks, such as the university, for example, but I'm only able to access through ssh when on the same network.

If someone can help me establish this external connection so I can access my pc while on another connection I would be very grateful.

I do not use a router, other than the one provided by Vivo (Router / mode Vivo Fibra).

NOTE: I do not intend to use putty, Team Viewer or anything, I just want to use the terminal, for me it's more practical.

I do not have fluence on English, sorry for this. Text translated by google.

You have to find the external ip address, you can do that with https://www.whatismyip.com/ ....

You have to setup your ssh server, mainly your port.... set your port in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to something other than 22......then do

service ssh restart....

You have to have a username to use in the ssh command that you have permission to log into.....

You have to allow ssh in your iptables......like this:

iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport PORT -j ACCEPT.....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT:

Do this↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ to add new port for ssh remember PORT in the command should be the port that you choose as maybe 34503

root@ubuntu:/# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport PORT --jump ACCEPT
root@ubuntu:/# iptables-save

end of edit

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You have to be sure there is open through your router..... portforwarding the service ssh for the port you've chosen.....

You can also set ssh keys like here......https://www.debian.org/devel/passwordlessssh.......

then there is the command itself:

ssh -p PORT USER@EXTERNAL-IP

when you connect answer yes to the question if you trust the new connection..... and your all set, good luck

  • @Gustavo if you can access ssh from another PC in same network it means that you do not need to use iptables. However, if you already changed port and restarted sshd then it is possible that new port is closed. I'd say do not change ssh port.

  • I can access from other PC on the same network, but I need to access outside this network

If you want to access a public IP address then you need to know the public IP address, which is dynamic. If your PC is on the same domain as your Ubuntu server, then you can use the domain name instead of the IP address. Ex:

ssh [email protected]
