# sshfwd
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This is a reverse forward service that uses SSH as the transport. It works similar to ngrok or localtunnel.me.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You run the service on a internet addressible host and ssh to it. Using ssh remote forwards (ie. ssh -R) the port on the remote host will be forwared to
 | 
			
		||||
the configured port on your local machine.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
on Remote host:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```sh
 | 
			
		||||
$ make genkeys  # generate the services host keys.
 | 
			
		||||
$ SSH_HOSTKEYS=hostkeys SSH_LISTEN=:2222 sshfwd   # run service on port 2222
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
on your local machine:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```sh
 | 
			
		||||
$ ssh -T remote.example.com -p 2222 -R 0.0.0.0:1234:localhost:3000
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
now if you access `remote.example.com:1234` it will be the same as accessing `localhost:3000`
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
# Pubkeys
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
if the env variable `SSH_AUTHKEYS` is set it will require that the client authenticates with one of the keys in the `SSH_AUTHKEYS` directory.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```sh
 | 
			
		||||
$ SSH_LISTEN=:2222 SSH_HOSTKEYS=hostkeys SSH_AUTHKEYS=authkeys sshfwd
 | 
			
		||||
```
