feeding the host ssh port into the provisioner

[steve gibson]

Hi,

I'm am looking for a way to get the host port for the SSH port-forward and be able to write it in a file on the guest.

My scenario is this:

I have a multi-machine setup with 2 VMs (using vbox). Both machines need to be able to scp to each other. Since eth0 is on a private network, I cannot access one guest from the other. And because of the nature of my project, I cannot add a second network interface.

So I am looking for a way to create a /root/.ssh/config file on each guest and define the peer guest with the port that is made available on the host. The IP would be the GW of the guest

So how can I get VM1's ssh port when I am provisioning VM2 ?

Thank you.

hello

2 things

1. you can set the port to something known

on one VM

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 22, host: 2291, id: "ssh"

on the second VM

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 22, host: 2292, id: "ssh"

and test

2. disable the insert ssh_key so you can connect with the insecure key

config.ssh.insert_key = false

then try to login with the insecure ssh key
