Connecting to a Client Using SSH in Terminal
You can use the Secure Shell (SSH) tool from the command line to log in to a SAN
client over the network. Xsan Admin can start an SSH session with the client or
controller.
To connect to a client using SSH:
1
In Xsan Admin, select Computers in the SAN Assets list.
2
Select the client you want to connect to.
3
Choose “Connect using ssh” from the Action (gear) pop-up menu.
If you have trouble making an SSH connection, check the Sharing pane of System
Preferences on the remote computer and make sure Remote Login service is turned
on. If you have trouble making an SSH connection with an Xsan client, open Security
preferences on the client, click Firewall, and make sure the option to block all incoming
connections isn’t selected.
