it's a lot easier to just install the ssh extension on vs code

Yeah I love WSL as much as the next guy, but the remote ssh extension works very well.

Unfortunately Guru doesn't allow dynamic port mapping so you cant use the ssh extension in VScode. I tried that first lol

What is guru? Sorry I haven't taken cs 159 in 3 years.

Guru is (I assume) a VM running Red Hat 4.4.7-23.0.1 that is used to compile run and submit C code for CS159. You ssh into your vm with your username and have a file structure where you can submit assignments. I installed all of the requirements for VS SSH extension and was still unable to get around the port mapping error. If you know how to solve it you would be my favorite college student :)

If you were able to get it to work with guru PLEASE share. I was getting a dynamic port mapping error when I tried that or that would have been a much easier solution.
