Hi, If you want to run the Sage notebook on a remote machine where Sage is installed, and you can only ssh to the remote machine, but not open outside ports, do:
ssh -L 5900:localhost:8000 remote.computer.edu /path/to/sage -notebook port=8000 Then open http://localhost:5900 on your computer. The above should be very secure even with secure=False, since it all goes through ssh. Only you can connect to the server. An advantage is that it works even if there is a firewall on remote.computer.edu that prevents opening outgoing connections. E.g., I used this today to run a notebook server on a computer at UGA. You'll need to login, so be sure to set a password on the remote server, e.g., by typing sage: notebook(reset=True). -- William P.S.
