    Discontinued Caddy-SSH is a general-purpose, extensible, modular, memory-safe SSH server built in Go [Moved to: https://github.com/kadeessh/kadeessh]

  • The plans are there! I focused on implementing the absolute necessary parts of every layer before taking round-2 for the more in-depth implementation. I actually have both the linked thread and the article saved aside to study when I'm ready to implement certificate-based authentication. Knowing Gitea already has it implemented, I had plans to study their implementation to know what I'm venturing into. If anybody else is interested in picking it up, please feel free to tackle it! I'd love to see that PR.

    I've created tracking issue: https://github.com/mohammed90/caddy-ssh/issues/10

  • caddy-l4

    Layer 4 (TCP/UDP) app for Caddy

  • I guess, except Caddy doesn't spawn any processes, it just "starts apps" which are configured in-process.

    Another example Caddy app is https://github.com/mholt/caddy-l4 which lets you do arbitrary TCP/UDP handling/proxying.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pam

    Go wrapper module for the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) API (by msteinert)

    That's not exactly fair. The entire point of this exercise is to move away from C code, by implementing it in a memory safe language (Go).

    Since PAM uses shared-libraries to operate, that's fundamentally incompatible here (unless you use some CGO like in https://github.com/msteinert/pam) so implementing auth via Caddy's module system is the way to go for this project.

  • Win32-OpenSSH

    Win32 port of OpenSSH

  • Can you point the right person to this internally for the real OpenSSH shipped with Windows? I'm actually curious how licensing works out for 3rd party servers like Caddy-SSH.

  • anything2ed25519

    A deterministic ed25519 key generator for SSH

  • re-using an insecure key is just as easy https://github.com/mikalv/anything2ed25519

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
