NAME

       podman-machine-ssh - SSH into a virtual machine

SYNOPSIS

       podman machine ssh [options] [name] [command [arg ...]]

DESCRIPTION

       SSH into a Podman-managed virtual machine and optionally execute a command on the virtual machine. Unless
       using the default virtual machine, the first argument must be the  virtual  machine  name.  The  optional
       command  to  execute  can then follow. If no command is provided, an interactive session with the virtual
       machine is established.

       The exit code from  ssh  command  is  forwarded  to  the  podman  machine  ssh  caller,  see  Exit  Codes
       ⟨#Exit-Codes⟩.

       The  default  machine  name is podman-machine-default. If a machine name is not specified as an argument,
       then podman-machine-default will be SSH'd into.

       Rootless only.

OPTIONS

   --help
       Print usage statement.

   --username=name
       Username to use when SSH-ing into the VM.

Exit Codes

       The exit code from podman machine ssh gives information  about  why  the  command  failed.   When  podman
       machine ssh commands exit with a non-zero code, the exit codes follow the chroot standard, see below:

       125 The error is with podman itself

       $ podman machine ssh --foo; echo $?
       Error: unknown flag: --foo
       125

       126 Executing a contained command and the command cannot be invoked

       $ podman machine ssh /etc; echo $?
       Error: fork/exec /etc: permission denied
       126

       127 Executing a contained command and the command cannot be found

       $ podman machine ssh foo; echo $?
       Error: fork/exec /usr/bin/bogus: no such file or directory
       127

       Exit code contained command exit code

       $ podman machine ssh /bin/sh -c 'exit 3'; echo $?
       3

EXAMPLES

       To get an interactive session with the default Podman machine:

       SSH into the default Podman machine.

       $ podman machine ssh

       Run command inside the default Podman machine via ssh.

       $ podman machine ssh myvm

       Run command inside the specified Podman machine via ssh.

       $ podman machine ssh myvm rpm -q podman
