Discussion on: Poor man's ngrok with tcp proxy and ssh reverse tunnel

[leeee-me]

Better to add some fault-and-failover:
-o BatchMode=yes -o ServerAliveCountMax=15 -o ServerAliveInterval=300 -o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes

By the way, ssh cannot help binding privileged ports smaller than 1024, only if we remote ssh as root@remotehost (or any UID 0 identity)... safe but inconvenient.

Hi, thanks for the tips. Haven't try this but for binding to lower port, maybe we can use setcap to allow tcpproxy to bind to port < 1024.
