SSH'ing into multiple Folk nodes

If you have multiple Folk nodes on the same WiFi network and you want to SSH into

You can set a Bash variable called FOLK_SHARE_NODE to the string folk-convivial in several ways:

• Open your terminal.
• Type the following command: bash export FOLK_SHARE_NODE="folk-convivial"
• This will set the variable only for the current session.

• Open your .bashrc (Linux) or .bash_profile (macOS) file in a text editor. You can use nano or vim for this. bash nano ~/.bashrc # for Linux nano ~/.bash_profile # for macOS
• Add the following line at the end of the file: bash export FOLK_SHARE_NODE="folk-convivial"
• Save and exit the editor.
• Run the following command to make the change effective: bash source ~/.bashrc # for Linux source ~/.bash_profile # for macOS

• Open the ~/.profile file. bash nano ~/.profile
• Add the export line as above: bash export FOLK_SHARE_NODE="folk-convivial"
• Save and exit, then run source ~/.profile.

By following these steps, you’ll be able to set the FOLK_SHARE_NODE Bash variable to the desired value either temporarily or permanently.
