SSH Remote Artifact Repo Setup¶

Steps to set up an SSH Remote Repo¶

SSH (Secure Shell) remote storage refers to using the SSH protocol to securely access and manage files and data on a remote server or storage system over a network. SSH is a cryptographic network protocol that allows secure communication and data transfer between a local computer and a remote server.

Proceed with the following steps to set up an SSH Remote Repository:

Initialize the project directory with an SSH remote.
Check whether cmf is initialized in your project directory with the following command.
```
cmf init show
```
If cmf is not initialized, the following message will appear on the screen.
```
'cmf' is not configured.
Execute the 'cmf init' command.
```
Execute the following command to initialize the SSH remote storage as a CMF artifact repository.
```
cmf init sshremote --path ssh://127.0.0.1/home/user/ssh-storage \
    --user XXXXX --port 22 --password example@123 \
    --git-remote-url https://github.com/user/experiment-repo.git \
    --cmf-server-url http://127.0.0.1:80
```
> When running cmf init sshremote, ensure that the specified IP address allows access for \ the specified user XXXX. If the IP address or user does not exist, this command will fail.
Execute cmf init show to check the CMF configuration.
To troubleshoot SSH permissions-related issues, check the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file on the remote machine. This configuration file serves as the primary starting point for diagnosing and resolving SSH permission-related challenges.
