frp VS chisel

Seems to be the exact opposite of https://github.com/fatedier/frp which is a reverse tunnel over a variety of protocols (including HTTP).

I've been self-hosting https://github.com/fatedier/frp on my little box, and it feels insane to think of the times where I didn't have it set up. There are many choices in the space as others pointed out, but frp's capabilities and lightweight packaging blows all other setups out of the water. I placed mine behind nginx with Let's Encrypt for SSL support. Hella fresh!

My setup to do the same:

- small Hetzner instance

- my domain's dns pointing to that instance

- frps[1] running on that instance

- frpc running on my local machine and connected to the cloud frps

An easy service to use is FRP, recently found it and it basically handles making the connection out of the network and is really easy to setup. https://github.com/fatedier/frp I personally having it running on a VPS and the client then running on my local network pointing at a reverse proxy which then handles sending it to the diffrent clients.

No, FRP - https://github.com/fatedier/frp

Another way around is to use reverse proxy like frp but since you need SSH anyway, all you need is already comes with SSH (reverse SSH)

Take a look also onto popular, similar to yours project: frp

You may want to take a look at FRP. It’s the same idea like Cloudflare tunnel, just without all the sophisticated features. You put a server (frps) on a VPS with public IP, and a client (frpc) within your home NAT. It can do both TCP and HTTP reverse proxy. I recommend a simple TCP one, and let your local nginx handle SSL.

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
