Troubleshooting

What to do when an exit is down, or a machine's traffic still leaves from the cloud (Your box's traffic, from your home address).

The exit is down in lnk exit list

Read ~/.lnk/exit/<machine>.log, and check that lnk box ssh <box> or ssh <host> works without typing anything.

The log says "remote port forwarding failed"

On the host, allow AllowStreamLocalForwarding in /etc/ssh/sshd_config and reload sshd.

"isn't a box's name or a host to SSH to"

Use letters, digits and @._:-, not starting with -, in the machine's name, so it can't be read as an SSH option.

A program on the machine still shows the cloud's address

Point it at the SOCKS5 proxy, ~/.lnk/exit/exit.sock, and give it addresses, not names.
