New ContributorSetting Up a remote FPGA Farm using DSEII with SSH
Hi, we are trying to set up a remote FPGA Farm using DSEII and SSH to make the connection between a Windows PC and an Arch Linux Server (running on an Intel® Nuc). At the beginning, we were following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdO5VOQkl7s&pp=ygUNZnBnYSBmYXJtIGRzZQ%3D%3D but we didn't find it useful enough.
We then found this response: https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Quartus-Prime-Software/remote-farm-machine-setup/m-p/1344201 and followed the steps.
Both computers have Quartus Prime Software Installed and we have already managed to get an SSH connection via PuTTY using keyfiles without the need of a password. But when we try to make an exploration using DSEII it outputs the following error message:

We are not sure if we are setting up the parameters correctly. We have tried from the gui and from the console and both of them display the same error message specified above. We would like to know if we have misunderstood some of the settings or if we have wrote them using a bad syntax.
Here are the settings that we used for both tries:
