SSH / Remote Display with Namespace Compute

Remote Display

Namespace supports visual debug access through multiple options which is invaluable for debugging GUI applications, testing user interfaces, and investigating display-related issues.

VNC Integration

Access your Mac runners through Remote Display (VNC) directly from the Namespace dashboard.

Tahoe Remote Display

You can also start a VNC session using our CLI:

$ nsc vnc <instance-id>

VNC support is currently available for macOS runners. Support for other platforms is in development.

RDP Access

To gain interactive, visual access to your Windows runners, you can rely on our RDP integration.

Windows RDP

You can start an RDP session using our CLI.

$ nsc rdp <instance-id>

RDP credentials are printed on the CLI and currently need to be entered in the RDP client manually.

SSH Access

Connect to any running instance via SSH for command-line debugging and investigation. Perfect for examining file systems, running diagnostic commands, and troubleshooting build environments. The simplest path to jump into an interactive terminal is through your browser with our web SSH interface.

Terminal access

Alternatively, you can jump into an SSH session from your command line. To open an SSH session, you can use our CLI or connect using native SSH.

$ nsc ssh <instance-id>
 
$ ssh <instance-id>@ssh.<region>.namespace.so

SSH access is available for Linux and macOS runners, with Windows support coming soon.
Note: Native SSH access is not enabled by default. Reach out to our support team to get enrolled.
