Using mosh with Back to my Mac

How can I use mosh via iClouds Back to my Mac, like I can do it with ssh?


Solution 1:

I got it working.

It requires a bit of messing with mosh, so try it first with the current version before hacking with your installation of mosh. Leave a new answer or a comment if this starts working with the latest versions of mosh please.

First, on both the client and the server, install the latest version of mosh: brew install --HEAD mosh.

Then edit the mosh file ($EDITOR 'which mosh' (use backticks instead of single ticks)) as specified here: https://github.com/keithw/mosh/issues/81#issuecomment-57074800 I made the change on both the client and the server.

Then execute mosh -6 your_server if you followed Rnhmjoj's suggestion, or mosh -6 your_server.you_magic_number.members.btmm.icloud.com
