🚀 Remote SSH Guide

🛠️ Install OpenSSH

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y openssh-server
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Edit the port according to you. Let’s say 8081.

🔗 Install Gsocket

curl -sSL https://gsocket.io/install.sh | bash

If needed, now go to the gsocket folder, then ./gsocket and then make install as guided.

📌 For Gsocket:

curl -sSL https://gsocket.io/install.sh | bash
cd gsocket
./install.sh
cd gsocket
make install

🖥️ On Server:

gsocket /usr/sbin/sshd -d

Then enter any {PASS_KEY}.

💻 On Client:

gsocket -s PASS_KEY ssh root@gsocket -p 8081

(You can use root or any available user on the server.)

🌍 Ngrok Installation

# Remove the old version of ngrok if available
rm -f ngrok

# Download the latest ngrok version (Linux)
curl -o ngrok.zip https://bin.equinox.io/c/4VmDzA7iaHb/ngrok-stable-linux-amd64.zip

# Unzip it
unzip ngrok.zip

# Give execute permissions to ngrok
chmod +x ngrok

🖥️ Install Code-Server

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:7860 --auth none

ngrok http 7860

🎯 One single command:

code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:7860 --auth none & ngrok http 7860

🎁 BONUS: Using Socat

Install socat:

apt install socat -y

Transfer port within localhost:

socat TCP-LISTEN:2222,fork TCP:localhost:8081

(port transferred from 8081 to 2222.)

🌐 Using Localtunnel

npm install -g localtunnel
lt --port 8081

(or any port 8082..etc)

It will give a URL like:

https://your-subdomain.loca.lt

To SSH using the URL (I think the url can be used for ssh to turn local ip [hostname -I] into public like.):

ssh username@your-subdomain.loca.lt -p 8081

(Not working in my test for now, but very useful for future use.)

🔄 SSH Tunneling:

For me, first run localtunnel ‘It –port 8081’, then u will get a link, then u can replace it with local ip.

Set up a reverse SSH tunnel on SERVER: First, run Localtunnel:

lt --port 8081

Then use the generated link:

ssh -R 8081:localhost:8081 username@remote-server-ip

ssh -R 8081:localhost:8081 root@your-subdomain.loca.lt

Access from Client:

ssh -p 8081 username@remote-server-ip

(Change accordingly. Play around with it.. but do not waste time ❌.)

🛜 Ngrok TCP Forwarding

ngrok tcp 8081

(May allow only one task at a time in Ngrok, or may require a paid plan for TCP forwarding.)

🌩️ Cloudflared (Argo Tunnel)

Very simple, go as you click:

apt-get install wget
wget https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared/releases/latest/download/cloudflared-linux-amd64.deb
dpkg -i cloudflared-linux-amd64.deb

Check version:

cloudflared --version

Run tunnel:

cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8081

📌 Full command to run Code-Server with Cloudflared:

code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:7860 --auth none & cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:7860

🔹 Optional: Run in the Background

If you want to keep cloudflared running in the background, use nohup:

nohup cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8081 > cloudflared.log 2>&1 &

🔎 MORE TO EXPLORE:

🛠️ BORE (GitHub)

Exposes local ports to a remote server, bypassing standard NAT connection firewalls.

cargo install bore-cli
bore local 8000 --to bore.pub

Or:

# On the server
bore server --secret my_secret_string

# On the client
bore local <LOCAL_PORT> --to <TO> --secret my_secret_string
