opening jupyter notebook on remote computer using mobaxterm

Question

I am trying to open jupyter notebook on my laptop by accessing my server through mobaxterm.

when I type jupyter notebook into the mobaxterm terminal jupyter notebook opens on my server computer. I have tried jupyter notebook --no-browser then trying to paste the http into the address bar of chrome but it says localhost didnt send any data. This doesnt change if I set the port as well when i put jupyter notebook --no-browser --port 8888

Any suggestions?

You need to set up SSH tunnel for your remote server in order to access Jupyter notebooks on local machine.

Run the below command on the client machine: plink -ssh -L 8080:localhost:8888 username@server_address

login to the server and start an jupyter notebook instance. you can now access the notebook from this link: http://localhost:8080
