SSH Port 22 Conmection Timed Out

[little orbit]

I'm a very new user to CloudFlare. I'm trying to set up a VPC on the cloud and when trying to SSH into Port 22, it's saying the connection timed out. I believe it's because my tunnel is inactive.

Could I receive help?

You won't be able to SSH normally when using a tunnel. You either will need to use browser rendered SSH or cloudflared access ssh

Ok. Thanks for that info. Where can I find CloudFlared Access SSH?

I'll need to try this later.

Even though it says there's two solutions to SSH'ing in, I see three. The last one looks like the best method.

So, I tried this yesterday when I had a 20-minute window. I downloaded the 64-bit exe file and a blank CMD Prompt window showed up.

Usually when installing, they disappear fast, but this one didn't go away.

I want to make sure I'm not doing something dumb. Is this CMD Prompt where I'm supposed to SSH into?

This is coming up. CMD Prompt hasn't gone away and it won't let me type anything in here.

What's the next step?

Cloudflared isn't a GUI interface but a CLI one. You are going to want to open a terminal window in your Downloads and do cloudflared-windows-amd64.exe access ssh --hostname <your hostname that is running an ssh tunnel>
