I am running a cefpython application in kiosk mode on ubuntu 18.04. I want to take it on remote which is outside of local environment. I tried the port forwarding which is unsuccessful due to router.

I used teleconsole to take on remote it is successful but when i run in kiosk mode it failed because session got closed. Can you tell how to keep this session alive till the machine is running.

To run the ubuntu in kiosk mode i used two scripts placed at /usr/share/xsession/ location

kiosk.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Pulse Mode
Comment=Pulse Kiosk Mode
Exec=/usr/share/xsessions/pulsekiosk.sh
Type=Application

pulsekiosk.sh

#!/bin/bash
xset s off
xset s noblank
nm-applet &
sleep 5s
while true; do sh /booth/run.sh; sleep 5s;
done

You could use stunnel to connect from clients to servers, then you have open SSH sessions to all of them:

Likewise, you could wo with VPN, eg. OpenVPN. Again, establish tunnel from your clients to your central server, then push traffic through it, and you can then ssh as usual to clients (but using the client's VPN IP)

Man page:

This is a tutorial explaining both in pretty good details:

It would help to know if your server is behind NAT as well, or just the clients. Plus, perhaps just solving the NAT issue to properly configure it.
