Wetty - wizzdom

Redbrick uses Wetty as our web terminal of choice. It is accessible at wetty.redbrick.dcu.ie, wetty.rb.dcu.ie,term.redbrick.dcu.ie, anyterm.redbrick.dcu.ie and ajaxterm.redbrick.dcu.ie.

Why all the different domains? - For legacy reasons!

The configuration is located here

The configuration for Wetty is pretty straightforward:

  • SSHHOST - the host that Wetty will connect to (one of the Login boxes), defined in consul
  • SSHPORT - the port used for ssh
  • BASE - the base path for Wetty (default is /wetty)
    • This isn't very well documented but trust the process. It works!!
