FAQ
32 questions, answered.
What is SSH Board? +
SSH Board is a browser-based terminal that gives you a live shell session through the web — no SSH client needed.
How does it work? +
It runs ttyd on the server and streams the terminal to your browser over a secure connection.
Do I need an SSH client? +
No. The whole point is terminal access straight from your browser.
Is it available on Tor? +
Yes. SSH Board is reachable both on the clearnet (ssh.ayie.my) and as a Tor hidden service.
What is the clearnet address? +
ssh.ayie.my over HTTPS.
What is the .onion address? +
ysdug3sf4hyrh7brjwdklmwhvxsqr642zcjzjs6jbwieskhii6u6wgad.onion
Is the connection encrypted? +
Yes — HTTPS on clearnet, and end-to-end Tor encryption on the .onion.
Do I need Tor Browser? +
Only if you use the .onion address. The clearnet version works in any browser.
Is there a login? +
Access is controlled by the operator. It is not an open public shell.
Can anyone get a shell? +
No. SSH Board is intended for the operator, not anonymous public shell access.
What is ttyd? +
ttyd is a lightweight tool that shares a terminal over the web via WebSockets.
Does it work on mobile? +
Yes, the web terminal works in mobile browsers, though a keyboard helps.
Can I resize the terminal? +
Yes, the terminal adapts to your browser window size.
Does copy-paste work? +
Yes, standard browser copy-paste works within the terminal.
Is my session persistent? +
Sessions live as long as the connection. Use tmux or screen for persistence.
Can I run long jobs? +
Yes, though for durability run them under tmux/screen so they survive disconnects.
What shell does it use? +
The server's default shell (typically bash).
Is the traffic logged? +
Standard server logs may apply. The Tor path hides your network origin.
Why offer a web terminal? +
Convenience — administer the box from any browser without carrying SSH keys.
Is it safe to expose a shell? +
It is locked down to the operator and served over TLS/Tor, not opened to the public.
Can I use it over public Wi-Fi? +
Yes — HTTPS or Tor protects the session in transit.
What if I lose connection? +
Reconnect and your shell restarts; use tmux/screen to resume long-running work.
Does it support colours? +
Yes, the web terminal renders ANSI colours.
Can I upload files? +
File transfer is done via shell tools (curl, scp from the box); it is a terminal, not a file manager.
Is there a session timeout? +
Idle sessions may close for security; just reconnect.
What tech powers SSH Board? +
ttyd behind Nginx, with a Tor hidden service for the .onion path.
Can I have multiple sessions? +
Yes, open multiple browser tabs for multiple terminals.
Is it open to search engines? +
The landing page is public; the terminal itself is access-controlled.
Does it store my commands? +
Command history follows normal shell behaviour on the server.
Why both clearnet and Tor? +
Clearnet for convenience, Tor for privacy and censorship resistance.
Is SSH Board free? +
Yes, for the operator's use.
What browsers are supported? +
Any modern browser with WebSocket support.
