Connecting to TrueNAS Scale with VS Code SSH

This is something I’ve been trying to figure out for the past couple of weeks. Trying to connect to my TrueNAS home server via VSCode remote just would not work some reason.

1. Download the SSH remote extension in VS Code
2. SSH into your TrueNAS server
3. In the file /etc/ssh/sshd\_config change the line AllowTcpForwarding no to AllowTcpForwarding yes
4. Open the Remote Explorer side panel in VS Code and connect to your TrueNAS server
5. If prompted, enter your password or ssh key passphrase
6. You should be able to connect without a problem!
