Self-hosted HTTP tunnels with SSH and nginx

说明与用途

通过 SSH 反向隧道和 nginx 部署公共 HTTP 隧道，使外部客户端能够访问本地 Web 服务，而无需在网络中打开端口。

问题

Expose a local HTTP service to the internet without opening ports on the firewall.

结果

The local HTTP service becomes publicly accessible through a secure SSH tunnel and nginx reverse proxy, without exposing any ports on the private network.

工作流

• 1. Start an SSH reverse tunnel from the local server to a public SSH host: ssh -R 80:localhost:8080 user@public-host
• 2. Configure nginx on the public host to proxy requests to the tunnel endpoint.
• 3. Update DNS to point the desired domain to the public host's IP.
• 4. Verify external access via a browser or curl.
