Accessing Machines

To sign into a machine using ssh, use

$ minicoin ssh ubuntu2004

The vagrant user is set up with passwordless sudo access, but if you need to explicitly provide the password, it's the default vagrant password and the same as the user name: vagrant.

To use the machine interactively, use your provider's UI to attach a GUI; with virtualbox, you can also run

$ minicoin gui windows10 (minicoin extension)

and if enabled, you can use remote desktop protocol integration e.g.

$ minicoin rdb windows10

Run shell commands on the machine with:

$ minicoin cmd [machine] -- command (minicoin extension)

and get the local file listing with

$ minicoin ls [machine] (minicoin extension)

Other practical commands to access the machine are upload, download, and install.

To manage file system syncing with mutagen, see the minicoin mutagen command extension.
