Is your /tmp noexec by any chance?

@uishon you might have another password prompt waiting for you in a terminal. The terminal should have popped up by itself. But if it didn't check the terminals in the drop down of the Terminal panel.

We are using PKI, which works direct but through the jump box, it does not. I also tried jumping through a jump box to a box that would require a password and was prompted. The error that appears is that the server isn’t x86_64 or something like that.

If you have to use a password to log in, then you will have to set remote.SSH.showLoginTerminal.

See https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/troubleshooting#_enabling-alternate-ssh-authentication-methods for details

Let me know whether that helps

[uishon]

That helped. Thanks. I'm now connected and able to work remotely.

@uishon How are you dealing with the constantly changing IP address of Hyper-V? Everything works on my end except every time I wake the PC from sleep/restart, they ip address of the VM in Hyper-V is different and I have to change the host in ssh config.

[uishon]

I'm using a dns name. In my case it's the hyper-v Linux name with a ". mshome.net" suffix. Works wakeup or reboot.

Okay thanks. I have a a linux vm called dev but ssh-ing to username@dev.mshome.net but cannot resolve hostname. Am I doing something wrong?

[jovinbm]

I figured it out. I was using the hyper-v name given to the machine instead of the hostname of the linux machine. Works now. Thanks.
