Expose VS chisel

Expose is another good one.

So in the end, for those interested with the same issue (How to forward ports behind the Starlink CGNAT), all the VPN providers I tried were bad (the IP they allow to open weren't working well, or they only provide dynamic IPs), so in the end I : 1/ bought a small router on Amazon, the GL-MT1300 (by GL-iNet) but their smaller routers should work too: https://www.amazon.fr/GL-iNet-GL-MT1300-Wireless-Pocket-Sized-Repeater/dp/B08MKZXGBY?ref\_=ast\_sto\_dp 2/ installed AstroRelay on it (followed this tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3RkMeO4kDg ): https://astrorelay.com And that's it, all my local services work like a charm and are accessible outside. I didn't have to roll up my sleeve to setup a VPS or to setup reverse SSH tunnel. As an alternative to AstroRelay I could have used these services but they seemed a bit more complex to install or use: - https://ngrok.com/ - https://expose.dev/ - https://localxpose.io/ - https://tunnelto.dev/ - https://www.zerotier.com/

If you still want to use the SPN for the connection, a service like this can be a work around: https://expose.dev/

In order to achieve that, there are multiple tools that can help you with that such as ngrok or expose

I use Expose and it works awesome for me

An alternative to ngrok, written in PHP, open source: https://expose.dev/

There are plenty of tunneling solutions that can be used for local development, such as: Ngrok, Localtunnel, and Expose.

A great solution is https://expose.dev it’s like ngrock but for php apps. Basically instal. The app and run on simple command on app folder and your app will be accessible via web

Looking at the perf https://github.com/jpillora/chisel/blob/master/test/bench/pe... it looks not too bad!

I have a few TCP based utilities. I was thinking I need to make websocket equivalents for it to work on the web, but happy to see this project, I will be evaluating this soon, it should save me some time.

Thanks for sharing!

Personally I use https://github.com/jpillora/chisel as a reverse Proxy through nginx, then connect through it using OpenVPN to bypass a similarly restrictive firewall. But this discussion is filled with other, similar hacks, I may have to try some of them.

To keep everything secure, each chisel client has a separate TLS private key. That lets my reverse proxy authenticate the client before allowing a connection to the Chisel backend service. And on the Chisel backend service side, the --auth= part allows that particular client to bind to the specific XXX port within that Docker container. https://github.com/jpillora/chisel/blob/master/example/users.json

I love it in the context of hacking actually. When working on HackTheBox machines or other CTFs you sometimes need to deploy tools onto the machine like these:

rclone and chisel. rclone is a high quality swiss-army knife for selfhosting. It does a lot of things and it does all of those things surprisingly well. chisel provides an TCP/UDP tunnel over websockets. When heroku used to be free, I had a couple of chisel instances running on Heroku, which I would use, occasionally, to quickly access any of my locally hosted apps or servers.

You should try Chisel https://github.com/jpillora/chisel

Have a look at setting up this at home or cheap VPS on port 443, then tunnel using it. https://github.com/jpillora/chisel
