Here and later, ‘host’ is the thingy hidden behind NAT.

• Mullvad allows forwarding ports. Then the host connects to mullvad, and I connect to its forwarded ports through public mullvad IP
  • forwarded port is dynamically generated
  • the host has to connect to the same exact server with the forwarded port
• anderspitman/awesome-tunneling: List of ngrok alternatives and other ngrok-like tunneling software and services. Focus on self-hosting.
  • “For most people, I currently recommend CloudFlare Tunnel.”
• Cloudflare Tunnel · Cloudflare Zero Trust docs
  • Had an acc there
  • Moved one domain there
  • Set up cloudflared on the server
    • Really easy install
  • No luck
  • Oh wait it works!
    • Sometimes
    • May debug later
• https://boringproxy.io/
  • needs 80/445, wasn’t able to do non-standard ports on an already existing server w/ certs through dir
  • didn’t get it to work :(
• https://tunnel.pyjam.as
  • worked like a charm!
  • Quick etc., but using someone else’s domain is not what I need
• fatedier/frp: A fast reverse proxy to help you expose a local server behind a NAT or firewall to the internet.
  • Worked immediately for SSH
  • Worked almost immediately for HTTP (no ‘S’, but that was the issue w/ boringproxy - acme errors)
    • Doesn’t force you to use HTTPS
  • Neat intuitive documented config and config files!
  • Really neat dashboard with statistics etc!
