ose-vnc

This project was created to support access to OpenShift instances running remotely in the public cloud. See https://github.com/jim-minter/aws-ose3 .

Usage

The following steps can be used to deploy within the OpenShift environment:

• Ideally this project should be hidden from the demo user, so I recommend creating it using the system:admin account. Run the following as root on the instance:

  oc new-project vnc
  oc new-app -n vnc --docker-image=jimminter/novnc -e HOSTPORT=$(hostname):5900
  oc expose -n vnc svc/novnc --name no
  

• The result should be that the NoVNC client is available at https://no-vnc.OPENSHIFT-APP-DOMAIN/ .

• The container runs a websockify client just like the unmodified NoVNC utility, providing a websocket proxy for the host's VNC server listening on 5900.
