In general for systems like this, you can open the browser link from a different host.
For example, if I've SSHed from my laptop to Host A to Host B to Host C then need to authenticate a CLI program I'm running on Host C, the program can show a link in the terminal which I can open on my laptop.
- gpderetta 4y agoHaving to interact with the browser every time I need to ssh to a machine would be extremely painful. If key forwarding works, that might be workable. I'm extremely wary of non-standard ssh login processes as they tend to break basic scripting and tooling.
