@ -167,6 +167,21 @@ sign on. Please note that the helper script spawns a HTTP server which waits for
the sign-on token to be passed back. This makes it necessary to do the sign on the sign-on token to be passed back. This makes it necessary to do the sign on
on the same host as Weechat. on the same host as Weechat.
If signing on on the same host as Weechat is undesirable the listening port of
the SSO helper should be set to a static value using the
`sso_helper_listening_port` setting:
/set matrix.server.myserver.sso_helper_listening_port 8443
After setting the listening port the same port on the local machine can be
forwarded using ssh to the remote host:
ssh -L 8443:localhost:8443 example.org
This forwards the local port 8443 to the localhost:8443 address on example.org.
Note that it is necessary to forward the port to the localhost address on the
remote host because the helper only listens on localhost.
