chisel VS Snipe IT

chisel - SSH under the hood, but still uses a custom client binary. Supports auto certs from LetsEncrypt. Written in Go.

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.

Snipe-IT for Asset Management

At work I use snipeIT to manage our asset inventory, it's fairly quick to spin up with docker and it's quite customisable https://snipeitapp.com/

Another great open source asset management system to check out is Snipe-IT. https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it

I have used it for years both self hosted and with them hosting and it's been a great low cost solution for asset management.

If you like the IT method of asset management, then Snipe-IT is what you want. If you want something more inventory-y and parts-y, then check out PartKeepr or Inventree.

We use SnipeIT

I very strongly disagree, use serial numbers if at all possible, set up Snipe-IT, and you'll never have to change labels again. As long as you are the one handling provisioning, repairs and such, or those who do is allowed access, you'll always know the location, status and ownership of everything in there.
