When you are trying to get Vivado Remote Connections working on Ubuntu, you might have an issue to establish the connection.
|
|
This can be easily solved by adding a symlink to your bash, called sh. You can do this for example using the following commands:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
|
|
$ ln -s /bin/bash ~/.local/bin/sh
|
|
```

Thanks to ole2 for providing this solution in the xilinx forum, which you can find here:

As he points out, this seem to be a bug in Vivado.
|

I had this issue in Vivado 2016.4 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
