I am using ganache-cli to launch a private blockchain in a remote ubuntu server. I'd like to use Ganache GUI to connect to that server from my desktop. By looking at the configuration it only supports launching a network on local. Does it work as a client to explorer remote blockchain network?
Ganache is local ethereum blockchain node with GUI. It does not provide gateway to connect to other blockchain network (ropsten, rinkeby, Mainnet). Its more like a development server/node so you can deploy and test stuff quickly. It cannot be used to make a priavte blockchain
Where as what you are looking for is Geth an open-source ethereum-client that can be used to start your own private customised blockchain https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/interface/private-network
or you can connect it to a running ethereum network like
Mainnet.
Ropsten.
Rinkeby
