frp VS sish

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.

sish uses ssh tunneling that you can read about in their docs: https://ssi.sh/

Tunneling services can be considered as a solution in some cases. Services like ngrok, frp, localtunnel and sish create a public endpoint that tunnels communication to your local endpoint via a tunnel client.

My favourite one is https://github.com/antoniomika/sish

It uses SSH as the method of opening the remote tunnel to the public server.

Why not forget about Cloudflare and a VPN but get a 3 euro Hetzner server and install https://github.com/antoniomika/sish for dynamic DNS through SSH + Traefik with a DNS resolver and have yourself a wildcard certificate. This way you can host any service from home as long as you run a port forwarding service through SSH with a one liner on Ubuntu. Better yet make an alpine docker image with a command to route traffic to your local service for even more isolation. 😘

Personally I’ve been using sish[1] recently, lots of ngrok alternatives out there now, especially as the pricing went a bit weird

i used to use a similar tool called inlets but they removed the open licensing. i now self host a sish server (https://github.com/antoniomika/sish) which also uses ssh for the reverse tunnel client. so much simpler!

- Sish : Because I don't want to pay for ngrok anymore (https://github.com/antoniomika/sish)

They could create a tunneled connection. Take a look at ngrok.io or ssi.sh
