Connection to CarpaOS™ 1.0
- Find the VM’s IP Address
To connect to the server, you need to know the VM’s IP address:
- Log in to your Azure account.
- Select the virtual machine from the list.
- Click Overview, and the Public IP Address will be displayed.
- You can connect to your VM in two ways.
- With OpenSSH
In the Windows 10 operating system (starting with version 1809 ), an OpenSSH client is available, with which you can connect to Linux servers via SSH. If Windows 10 is suitable and the OpenSSH client is installed, you can start connecting via SSH. To do this, launch a normal Windows command prompt and enter the command ” ssh user@*vm_ip*”.
Where “user” is the username that was specified while creating the virtual machine and “*vm_ip*” is the VM IP address.
In the opened console, it is necessary to enter a password that was specified while creating the virtual machine.
- With the PuTTy application
To do this, you need the PuTTy application to connect via SSH. You can download it at the following link – Download
Run PuTTy, enter the VM address in the “Host” field and click “Open” to connect.
In the opened console you will need to enter a username and password that were specified while the VM was being created (you’ll not see the password in the console while entering it).
To view OS information, enter
$sudo cat /etc/os-release
$sudo cat /etc/alpine-release
$sudo cat /etc/carpaos-release
$sudo cat /etc/issue
$sudo cat /etc/motd
$sudo cat /etc/default/grub
Now you can work with completely clean CarpaOS.
