ssh-proxy = "Proxying SSH over HTTPS
Wrapping SSH in HTTPS makes it accessible anywhere and also makes it routable.
Whether inside a harsh network environment or even if hindered by a poorly
configured firewall, once wrapped in tls, ssh becomes UNSTOPPABLE.
Usage:
telebit ssh <remote>
Example:
telebit ssh jon.telebit.io
It is NOT at all neccessary to use \"telebit ssh\", it's just a convenience.
Wanna know why, and the alternatives? Keep reading!
## History
When TLS sends an encrypted packet over the network it begins with a handshake
which shows the things like the tls version and the host SERVERNAME unencrypted
so that the remote server can respond with the correct certificate.
SSH was created well before TLS and has a completely different header. The good
news is that, unlike some other early internet protocols, it does have a header
with its name and version, but it doesn't have anything to identify the server.
## Telebit + SSH
Here's why:
When you're running ssh through an https tunnel (as telebit does) you
can't just use \"ssh me.example.com\" to get in. You have to tell ssh that you
want to use an https tunnel. Using \"telebit ssh\" as a client will specify
all of the correct ssh options.
However, when you want to connect to ssh over https, you either have to pass
the correct arguments or modify your ~/.ssh/config to use \"openssl s_client\".
We explain the different configurations below:
## SSH + openssl
The configuration that's most likely to work with what's already installed on
your machine is this:
Host jon.telebit.io
ProxyCommand openssl s_client -quiet -connect %h:443 -servername %h
Or you would call ssh directly, like this:
ssh jon.telebit.io -o ProxyCommand=\"openssl s_client -quiet -connect %h:443 -servername %h\"
It's rather simple, but it looks quite daunting.
## SSH + sclient
Because that looks a little hairy, we created \"sclient\", so that the example
could look a bit more digestible:
Host jon.telebit.io
ProxyCommand sclient %h
Or
ssh jon.telebit.io -o ProxyCommand=\"sclient %h\"
## Inverse SSH Tunnel (same as stunnel)
The commands above instruct ssh to open a pipe into openssl or sclient. If we
instead want to connect ssh to a local tunnel, it looks like this:
Host jon.telebit.io
Hostname localhost
Port 3000
HostKeyAlias jon.telebit.io
CheckHostIP no
RequestTTY force
Or
ssh localhost -p 3000 -t -o CheckHostIP=no -o HostKeyAlias=jon.telebit.io
