The Astronaut SSH tunnel is enabled by default using a *nix login ID of client9260 with a default password of not#1sostrong. It is in the /etc/passwd file. You can change it via the passwd command as root. Make sure that the passwords agree on the client side. It runs with no shell and exist only for client communication.
Change Astronaut SSH shortcut
The "Astronaut SSH" shortcut that is used to invoke the PuTTY SSH client uses a command line:
"C:\Program Files\VistA\Putty\putty.exe" -ssh -l %ASTRO_SSH_clientID% -pw %ASTRO_SSH_CLIENT_PASS% -L %ASTRO_PORT%:127.0.0.1:%ASTRO_PORT% %ASTRO_SSH_HOST%
The individual environment variables must be specified if you do not have privileges to specify environment variables. For example:
- %ASTRO_SSH_clientID% -> client9260 (this is the default value)
- %ASTRO_SSH_CLIENT_PASS% -> not#1sostrong (this is the default value)
- %ASTRO_PORT% -> 9260
- %ASTRO_SSH_HOST% -> 192.168.56.101 (use the IP address or URL of the installed VistA server)
If using a Astronaut SSH shortcut would therefore be:
"C:\Program Files\VistA\Putty\putty.exe" -ssh -l client9260 -pw not#1sostrong -L 9260:127.0.0.1:9260 192.168.56.101
