how to launch a website via ssh windows












0















I'm connecting to a Windows 10 Machine (Running openssh) from my linux device over ssh. I'm wondering how I can launch a website on the default web browser (to be displayed on the remote machine) from ssh? Start www.website.com does nothing, nor does start [Path to Chrome.exe] www.website.com.

  • Maybe its not being displayed on the remote display, but rather over a null display that is your terminal. When you run something on SSH, at least on Linux systems, it defaults displays using an environmental variable - you can change this to the remote display and see if it works. This maybe different for a Windows machine, but its something to look towards as its a common problem in Linux machines. Perhaps try something like psexec, or a powershell command instead?
