Hello, My question is a repeat of the following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28943616/accessing-gitlab-server-login-hosted-on-aws-ec2-using-an-ssh-tunnel
I wanted to raise the publicity a bit as I am keen on answer. For a GitLab server that is hosted on an AWS EC2 instance. I would like to view the GitLab server login page via a SSH tunnel similar to that which is done here <http://toreopsahl.com/2011/10/17/securely-using-r-and-rstudio-on-amazons-ec2/> for R-studio, where in the blog it says that by typing http://localhost:8787 on the local machine web-browser you are able to access R-studio server. Another example would be this <http://howto.ccs.neu.edu/howto/windows/ssh-port-tunneling-with-putty/>. But for my purposes, I would hope that when using a local machine web-browser with the address bar saying something like...' http://localhost:8082' but this leading me to the GitLab server login. The reason for doing this is to ensure security by only having port 22 open for SSH only which is used for both PuTTy login but also for the tunnel. Here is what I have done so far: I have launched a t2.micro instance with Ubunutu 14.04 and downloaded and installed GitLab CE Omnibus as per this page <https://about.gitlab.com/downloads/> I think i need to alter to the external url in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rd to something like: external_url 'http://ip-xxx-xx-x-x.eu-west-1.compute.internal:8082' After running PuTTy to SSH into the EC2 instance, and having set a tunnel so that the source port is 8082 and the destination is localhost:8082 and clicking Add. I would expect to be able to go to my web-browser and in the address bar run http://localhost:8082 for the login page for GitLabs to turn up... but unfortunately this does not happen at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GitLab" group.
