I want connect to my other computer with remote desktop connection but i need a problem.
I did setup ngrok and launched it and tried connect it but it doesn't connect.
This is what i did:
Setup and launched ngrok as:
ngrok tcp 5555
and i switched my own laptop and launched remote desktop connection and did that:
But it doesn't connect :(
Note: I allowed Remote Desktop Connection in control panel.
Did i miss something or how to do it correctly?
You have wrong port number for your remote desktop connection. You have to use default RDP port 3389.
Setup and launched ngrok as:
ngrok tcp 3389

I can connect my docker postgresql in my local server windows via ip or localhost. When I try to connect it remotely from my personal windows I have timeout error. Thinking about 5432 port is blocked or not listening.
I have changed pg_hba.conf & postgresql.conf files for remote connection and also checked for firewall but it was disabled.
Answer is I should have checked my server's firewall conf also, just dockerVM is not enough :)
Failed to complete tunnel connection
The connection to http://cc1e064782fc.ngrok.io was successfully tunneled to your ngrok client, but the client failed to establish a connection to the local address localhost:80.
Make sure that a web service is running on localhost:80 and that it is a valid address.
The error encountered was: dial tcp [::1]:80: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Hi, I was setting up ngrok and got this error, I disabled the firewall too.
Take a look at this video where I show you the error.

Its kind of a message that ngrok successfully created tunnel to your pc at port 80 but there is no service running at that port in your OS, Mostly people run a web server at 80 but you can run any service at that port.
So lets assume you are running a web server in your OS on port 80 then you can access that web server from anywhere on the internet using that ngrok tunnel.
I am trying to access my Linux machine from anywhere in the world. I have tried originally port forwarding and then ssh'ing in; however, I believe my school's WiFi won't allow port forwarding (every time I ran it, it would tell me connection refused). I have setup an account with ngrok and I can remotely SSH in, but now I am wondering if it is possible to RDP. I tried connecting via the Microsoft Remote Desktop app on Mac, but it instantly crashes. I have also looked at trying to connect with localhost, but it's not working. So far, I have tried (with xxxx being the port):
ssh -L xxxx:localhost:xxxx 0.tcp.ngrok.io
and
ssh -L xxxx:localhost:xxxx <user>#0.tcp.ngrok.io
but my computer won't allow it and after about 2 or 3 times, it warns me of a possible DNS Spoofing. Is there anyway that I can run a remote desktop of my linux machine that I have ssh tunneled to (from my mac) on ngrok? Thank you!
First you'll need to sign up with ngrok if you haven't already and you'll be given an authtoken. You'll need to install this by running
./ngrok authtoken <insert your token here>
This will save your token to a file located ../username/.ngrok/ngrok.yml
Then you'll need to ask ngrok to create a TCP tunnel from their servers to your local machine's Remote Desktop port which should be 3389 by default
ngrok tcp 3389
Give it 30 seconds or so then jump to http://localhost:4040/status to see what the tcp address ngrok has allocated you. It should look something like tcp://1.tcp.ngrok.io:158764
Now you should be able to remote into your machine using address 1.tcp.ngrok.io:158764
The goal is to connect to my home computer from outside. The ISP blocks all the ports (and demands $$$ for business package with static ip address), so simple port forwarding on home router does not work.
I have used putty to tunnel a listening port to a remote server: R2221:###.###.###.###:2221 (to make things simpler, the test server is a simple ftp server running on my home windows machine) (the entire ip address has to be specified -- with OpenSSH 1.0 running on the linux box wildcard address results in refusal of connection) (GatewayPorts are set to on).
Netstat -a confirms that port 2221 on the linux box is open and listening. However, whenever I try to connect to that port, it simply hangs. Command line ftp client says "connected to ###.###.###.###" and that's it. Running netstat again shows dozens of opened connections to port 2221, all coming from my windows box (I tried using browser as well as command line ftp client).
Which step am I missing?
Tried with RDP, VNC and FTP -- all of them hang, all of them connect when connecting through my home network (or my home router).
EDIT The setup is as follows:
PC 1 (windows) has FTP service running on port 2221. It uses PuTTY to tunnel a listening port to PC 2 (linux). PC 2 does show listening port when running netstat. Connecting to port 2221 on PC 2 either form PC 2 or from PC 3 results in hanging.
EDIT 2 Aaaand it worked. Using 127.0.0.1 instead of the remote machine's ip address was what corrected it. Thanks a lot.
Are you sure your -R command is correct? From what you say I suppose the command should be R2221:127.0.0.1:2221. The -R ssh option in form of port:host:hostport does the following: it opens port port on the remote side and forwards the connection to that port to local address host:hostport, and this connection is made from the local machine.
To make your local machine (the one that is running ssh client, e.g. PuTTY) connect to your local FTP server running on the same machine, use 127.0.0.1 as an address.
It also explains why you see a strange behaviour: when you actually connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2221, it forwards the connection to the same address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2221 and you get some kind of a loop.
I have SSH access to a web server that is hosting an application on port 8080. I have a SSH session setup and a proxy configured on Chrome to redirect requests to SSH tunnel. I basically configured it using these instructions: http://drewsymo.com/2013/11/ssh-tunnel-in-30-seconds-mac-osx-linux/
I can confirm using Whats My IP that my IP is that of the SSH session and that is working correctly.
But I cannot figure out how to access the local application on the web server that I am SSHed into. When I try localhost:8080 the SSH session gives me an error "channel X: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused"
Any idea what is going on?
You can just create a port-specific tunnel:
ssh -L18080:localhost:8080 username#theothermachine
and then go to localhost:18080 on your local machine. The tunnel will forward your request to port 8080 of the localhost on the other end (and of course, localhost on the other end is the other machine itself). If that doesn't work for some reason, then replace localhost by 127.0.0.1 in the ssh command.
