Show HN: Public SSH Jump and Port Forwarding Server I've made a neat service to access SSH over NAT. Unlike ngrok and alternatives with registration, custom software, non-preserved random URLs and ports, this solution is just a remote SSH server which does not require anything more than an SSH client to both host and connect. Technically it allows to publish any service over SSH (web, proxy, any TCP port really), but only with SSH as a destination you'll preserve end-to-end encryption and won't allow my server to snoop on potentially unencrypted traffic. The service is mostly intended to give remote access to the device as fast as possible, given it already has SSH client and server. To begin, just execute: ssh ssh-j.com Would be grateful for any feedback. ----- Looking for ways to expose SSH behind NAT? Search no further! Publish SSH server port of your laptop, which is behind NAT: ssh any-username@ssh-j.com -N -R laptop-behind-nat:22:localhost:22 ╭─╯ unique ╰─╮ │ device name ╭───╯ │destination│ │ namespace │ │ and port │ │address and│ │for your hosts│ ╰──────────────╯ │ port │ ╰──────────────╯ ╰───────────╯ Connect to the published SSH: ssh -J any-username@ssh-j.com laptop-behind-nat ↖ It's THAT easy! Published hosts are bound to the username. Other usernames can't access them. Pick a unique username (not root ) and get access to your devices anywhere! March 18, 2021 at 12:31PM
Show HN: StreetComplete, an OpenStreetMap Editor for Humans StreetComplete is an OpenStreetMap[0] editor directed at people who want to contribute and want to do this using their smartphone, without learning how to edit things[1]. It is available as an Android application. It is intended to be used as one walks, with quests appearing as markers on the map. Selecting a marker allows one to answer a simple question. The answer will be added to the OpenStreetMap database, with app handling selecting objects for editing, transforming answer into OSM tags and making edits. OpenStreetMap account is needed to apply edits, but it is possible to start without it, make some edits and login/register later. Note: I am not the main author, but I am one of the active contributors. Github page is at https://ift.tt/2g8lasH and https://ift.tt/3nR9PzS shows what was recently released.
