Flags

WeTTY can be run with the --help flag to get a full list of flags.

Server Port

WeTTY runs on port 3000 by default. You can change the default port by starting with the --port or -p flag.

SSH Host

If WeTTY is run as root while the host is set as the local machine it will use the login binary rather than ssh. If no host is specified it will use localhost as the ssh host.

If instead you wish to connect to a remote host you can specify the host with the --ssh-host flag and pass the IP or DNS address of the host you want to connect to.

Default User

You can specify the default user used to ssh to a host using the --ssh-user. This user can overwritten by going to http://yourserver:3000/wetty/ssh/<username>. If this is left blank a user will be prompted to enter their username when they connect.

SSH Port

By default WeTTY will try to ssh to port 22, if your host uses an alternative ssh port this can be specified with the flag --ssh-port.

WeTTY URL

If you’d prefer an HTTP base prefix other than /wetty, you can specify that with --base.

Do not set this to /ssh/${something}, as this will break username matching code.
