I have this strange issue since recently (don't know when that started) accessing my vms console on my other nodes when connected on the gui from the node1. My cluster has 3 nodes in total and the following is working :

-Accessing vm console of node1 from node1 gui (local)
-Accessing vm console of node3 from node1 gui

What is not working :
-Accessing vm console of node1 from node2 gui
-Accessing vm console of node1 from node3 gui
-Accessing vm console of node2 from node1 gui
-Accessing vm console of node2 from node3 gui


So yes I can access VMs of node3 from node1 but not the opposite.

Thats the kind of logs I get : (it seems to connect and then half sec after it disconnect)
tail -f /var/log/auth.log

tail -f /var/log/syslog (I know the time is different but I just retried and added this log to this thread):

I can ssh from all the 3 nodes to all the 3 nodes.

Any idea where I should investigate ?
Time is synched between the 3 nodes with the same ntp server

OK I found it... I was running NeoFetch on these nodes :(
Maybe this could be documented (sticky) that customizing .bashrc can produce that behavior ?
