Want to remote control your Ubuntu WSL, or just access it abroad or over the network? Assuming it's been started, the OpenSSH server I'll show you how to set up and configure in this video should be automatically stated as well, meaning you can connect to it and control your Ubuntu WSL from abroad!

Port Forwarding Ubuntu WSL Guide:    • How to Port Forward Ubuntu/WSL | Simp...  

Using the above, you can port forward the port you used and access it over the internet! I would recommend setting key based authentication and disabling password authentication first!!

Change port on 22.10+:
sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/ssh.socket.d

[Socket]
ListenStream=
ListenStream=2200

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart ssh
