a pi would do it.
and it's not opening it up
you open to just one port to just that pi
for just the pps
electric cost of a pi is peanuts.
cloud would cost you orders of magnitude more.
hell I run my own servers domain cloud etc

Dan, it is easy peasy, but not quite free, as if you want 24/7 access to the box, you have to keep the system running 24-7, so electricity costs. Plus, I’m planning on having others log in as well, thus I don’t want to open up my network like that. That’s why I’m looking for a free hosted/Cloud solution. That way someone else can deal with the rest of the network security. I do enough of that for work anyway, don’t want to have to monitor my home network as thoroughly.

Well, running from inside a house and making accessible from the outside is easy. But most ot my computers at home generally don’t run 24/7.
Mainly what’s needed for what we both want to be able to do isn’t really a shell account on a shared machine, but literally a dedicated VM instance, but we need to be able to access that instance through a public IP address.
On a home network, a private IP Address (192.168.x.x, 172.x.x.x ‘actually I don’t think it’s the whole 172 network’, or a 10.x.x.x) it’s easy enough to setup port forwarding to make it accessible. But on the Cloud based VM’s, I don’t know if there is a way to do it. Well, I know there ARE ways, usually involves paying for the instance, an external address, and possibly the amount of traffic.
Actually, I know Bluehost (is it still a thing?) used to give you a VM with public address in combination with their hosting/domain name service. But I’m hoping to find one that will not cost me anything.

I have been trying to figure out a solution for something similar to that. I want to be able to run a PDP-11 outside of my house for Fortran development. I would be running it on my Android phone.

Does anyone know if I can use the Cloud9 IDE to host a simh System emulation?
I know I’m able to build and execute it in the environment, but what I’d really like to achieve is to have a system (or several) running on various instances. And be able to connect to them from an external IP address, I believe I am able to SSH into an instance, or access it through the web based IDE.
An example might be better. Say I setup an HP system running Time-Share Basic. Would I be able to telnet to the TSB instance from various computers?
Thank you,
Joe

Geek: I think that's wrong on a fundamental level.
Normal Person: Huh? Huh? What?
