======Remote Observing======
**10/30/2020**\\
Currently our remote observing still requires a user at the telescope. However, we are working on developing monitoring tools and making it easier to reach the remote observing goal.

=====Using An SSH Tunnel=====
The simplest way of accessing the telescope and observing websites is to use an SSH tunnel. All you
need to do this is knowledge of the rts2obs password and/or your own ssh key. First, add some hosts 
to your ~/.ssh/config file. My private ssh key on my MacBook Air is stored in "/Users/pnd/.ssh/rts2obs"
so edit that to suit your own key:

  # +
  # rts2obs
  # -
  Host rts2obs
    Hostname kuiper.as.arizona.edu
    User rts2obs
    IdentityFile /Users/pnd/.ssh/rts2obs
  # +
  # rts2artn
  # -
  Host rts2artn
    Hostname 10.30.1.24
    User rts2obs
    ForwardAgent yes
    ProxyCommand ssh -X -Y rts2obs nc %h %p 2> /dev/null
    IdentityFile /Users/pnd/.ssh/rts2obs
  # +
  # rts2pi
  # -
  Host rts2pi
    Hostname 10.30.1.25
    User pi
    ForwardAgent yes
    ProxyCommand ssh -X -Y rts2obs nc %h %p 2> /dev/null
    IdentityFile /Users/pnd/.ssh/rts2obs

To check that this has worked, you should now be able to login to both those machines using the shorthand
hostnames. Note that this might prompt for a password until you install your public key in the authorized_keys file on the remote machine:

  % ssh -XY rts2obs
  rts2obs@gerard:~$ exit
  % ssh -XY rts2pi
  pi@raspberrypi:~ $ exit

Add the following commands to a ~/.alias file:

  alias rts2pi_tunnel="ssh -CL 5000:localhost:5000 rts2pi"
  alias rts2artn_tunnel="ssh -CL 8080:localhost:80 rts2artn"
  alias xrts2pi_tunnel="xterm -e ssh -CL 5000:localhost:5000 rts2pi &"
  alias xrts2artn_tunnel="xterm -e ssh -CL 8080:localhost:80 rts2artn &"

When ready to remote eavesdrop, source the file:

  % source ~/.alias
  
Now, either run the simple tunnel in a regular terminal or use the terminal start:

  % xrts2pi_tunnel
  % xrts2artn_tunnel

NB: you *must* wait until the tunnel is complete and you are logged into the remote machine.

Then--voila!--point your local browser to:

  http://localhost/5000
  http://localhost/8080/dashboard
  http://localhost/8080/js9
  http://localhost/8080/

  
=====Smart VPN=====

====Setup VPN====
Create a new profile.

{{ :public:artn:smart-vpn.png?nolink&600 |}}

    Type: SSL VPN
    Profile: Kuiper
    Server: kuiper.as.arizona.edu
    Port: 443
    Username: ARTN RTS2 Observing Account Username

Select ''Authentication Settings'' to enter the password.
    Password: ARTN RTS2 Observing Account Password

Select ''Advanced''\\
Select ''More Routes''\\
Add a new route
    10.30.0.0/16
    
**Exit Advanced and then click ''Connect''**

You are now on the Kuiper network. You will be able to open up a terminal on your computer and ping bigartn ''10.30.1.24''. Websites only available on the network are viewable on your own web browser. There is no need of SOCKS tunneling or opening up Firefox as an X window.

===Windows Fix===
A user ran into the issue of installing Smart VPN with windows. They followed this page to correct the issue.

===Remote Dome Open Only===
To open:
  * echo BIG61 UPPERDOME 123 COMMAND DOMESLIT OPEN FORCE | nc bigudome 5750

It can take a few seconds to start so give it a minute.

To close:
  *echo BIG61 UPPERDOME 123 COMMAND DOMESLIT CLOSE FORCE | nc bigudome 5750
