Limitations

info

Crusoe Cloud is currently in alpha. If you do not currently have access, please request access to continue.

Crusoe Cloud is currently in alpha and there are several known limitations in the platform.

Port forwarding

Currently, VMs created on Crusoe Cloud are only accessible over SSH via the port specified by the VM. This means that webservers running on other ports aren't currently accesable.

In order to access a webserver, you will have to tunnel the port out:

ssh -N -L <LOCAL_PORT>:<REMOTE_LOCALHOST>:<REMOTE_PORT> [email protected]<VM_IP_ADDRESS> -p <VM_SSH_PORT>

As an example, if you have a VM available at 91.106.222.100 and start a webserver on that VM running on localhost:8000, you can tunnel it out to localhost:4000 on your local machine using the following command:

ssh -N -L 4000:127.0.0.1:8000 [email protected]

If you are unable to do something that you think you should be able to, please contact support.
