Title: Connect Antminer S5 directly to a SSH-server? Post by: GrimMeister on January 15, 2016, 07:51:42 PM Hi,
First post and hope I'm in the right sub-forum. :-\ I'm currently waiting for my Antminer S5 to arrive. My plan is to put it on a site where electricity is free, but there are limitations in open firewall ports. My solution would be to tunnel a SSH-session to a SSH-server outside the firewall and thus be able to connect to my mining pool. I've tested the concept of the tunnel and it works great. My question is about the ability to configure the Antminer S5. I want to use or install an SSH client on the S5 so that it can connect the tunnel at startup. I can't seem to find anything about it on the Internet, other than the web-GUI that the S5 has. Anyone have any useful links with information or am I bound to use an external SSH client such as a computer? Title: Re: Connect Antminer S5 directly to a SSH-server?

Hope that helps.

Although it seems to be a SSH server installed on the miner not a client. https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/204200569-How-do-I-connect-login-via-SSH- (https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/204200569-How-do-I-connect-login-via-SSH-) Or is there also a client?

You can easily ssh into the miner, so does it matter? I'm not really sure what you're trying to setup honestly. Should you not just router their individual IPs with your router?

But maybe there aren't any installed on the S5, then I have to use another hardware to act as SSH client and tunnel to traffic to the remote server. I think I saw something about Linux being the OS of the miner, then maybe one can apt-get an SSH-client? |
