    > Or is completely firewalled off from the world, and only accessible once you've authenticated yourself to your VPN. Or only reachable once you first authenticate (public/private keys, two factor crypto key auth, etc) to a bastion host, and then reach the system from the bastion.

    There's a lot of attack surface in there. Port-knocking is supposed to be a way to reduce attack surface. It's a belt-and-suspenders approach to the reality that even fully patched openssh has exploitable bugs.

    Using this tool, a MITM with an openssh 0day can just follow you in. KnockKnock [0] and tools like it do not suffer from this defect. This tool is conceptually similar to KnockKnock, using OTP instead of a monotonic counter. Using OTP opens it up to replay attacks.
