How do I ssh into the VM for Minikube?
DockerContainersVirtualboxKubernetesDocker Problem Overview
What is the username/password/keys to ssh into the Minikube VM?
Docker Solutions
Solution 1 - Docker
You can use the Minikube binary for this, minikube ssh.
Solution 2 - Docker
Minikube uses boot2docker as its base image, so the default SSH login to the VM ends up being docker:tcuser1.
Solution 3 - Docker
I too wanted to login without the Minikube command. I found that it drops the SSH key it generates into ~/.minikube/machines/
My machine was named the default "minikube", and therefore I could do:
ssh -i ~/.minikube/machines/minikube/id_rsa docker@$(minikube ip)
Solution 4 - Docker
For windows hyper-v the answer was
-
open "Hyper-V Manager"
-
right click on the "minikube" VM
-
user "root"
There was no password.. that got me in.
Solution 5 - Docker
minikube ssh -v 7
It will show you the output where you can see the full SSH command
/usr/bin/ssh -F /dev/null -o PasswordAuthentication=no -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o LogLevel=quiet -o ConnectionAttempts=3 -o ConnectTimeout=10 -o ControlMaster=no -o ControlPath=none docker@127.0.0.1 -o IdentitiesOnly=yes -i ~/.minikube/machines/minikube/id_rsa -p 56290
Solution 6 - Docker
All the files mentioned are AuthOptions, which can be configured in the config.json file:
$HOME\.minikube\machines\minikube\config.json
Generally, the SSH user is: docker.
If you want to ssh into your Minikube node/VM, then use SSH keys. You can use a Windows client application like WinSCP to configure the keys for your VM. If the format of keys is not as expected (.ppk), then use another client called PuttyGen to convert the keys into the expected format.
After you're done, log in using WinSCP, and it will enable you to shh into the desired VM using the configured keys.
Solution 7 - Docker
Getting user and password for minikube in Mac.
cat ~/.minikube/machines/minikube/config.json
Loggin on SSH
ssh -i ~/.minikube/machines/minikube/id_rsa docker@$(minikube ip)
Solution 8 - Docker
docker/tcuser is the username/password to access to it , and it's also an straight way.
if you just want to master the control platform, then minikube ssh is a quick way to login.
Solution 9 - Docker
Give User Name as - docker
Give password as tcuser and press enter :
