rssh-tunnel

rssh-tunnel is a command-line tool for creating SSH tunnels, allowing you to securely connect to remote hosts.

Features

• Interactive and Non-Interactive Modes: Choose between interactive mode, where the CLI prompts you for input, or non-interactive mode, where you provide input via command-line options.
• Profile Management: Easily create, save, load, and overwrite SSH tunnel configurations as profiles.
• Port Forwarding: Optionally set up port forwarding for your SSH tunnels.
• Easy Installation: Install rssh-tunnel easily using Cargo, the Rust package manager.

Installation

To use rssh-tunnel, you need to have Rust installed. You can then install rssh-tunnel using Cargo, the Rust package manager:

cargo install rssh-tunnel

Usage

rssh-tunnel provides both interactive and non-interactive modes for configuring SSH tunnels.

Interactive Mode

To run the CLI in interactive mode:

rssh-tunnel interactive

In interactive mode, the CLI will prompt you to enter the following information:

• Jump host username
• Jump host address
• Target host username
• Target host address
• Jump host SSH port (default: 22)
• Target host SSH port (default: 22)
• Port to forward (default: no)

Non-Interactive Mode

To create an SSH tunnel without interacting with the prompts, you can use the following command:

rssh-tunnel tunnel [OPTIONS]

Options:

• --jump_host_user: Jump host username.
• --jump_host_address: Jump host address.
• --target_host_user: Target host username.
• --target_host_address: Target host address.
• --jump_port: Jump host SSH port (default: 22).
• --target_port: Target host SSH port (default: 22).
• --port_forward: Port to forward (default: no).

Examples:

Create an SSH tunnel without port forwarding:

rssh-tunnel tunnel \
    --jump-host-user <jump_host_user> \
    --jump-host-address <jump_host_address> \
    --target-host-user <target_host_user> \
    --target-host-address <target_host_address> \
    --jump-port <jump_ssh_port> \
    --target-port <target_ssh_port>

Create an SSH tunnel with port forwarding:

rssh-tunnel tunnel \
    --jump-host-user <jump_host_user> \
    --jump-host-address <jump_host_address> \
    --target-host-user <target_host_user> \
    --target-host-address <target_host_address> \
    --jump-port <jump_ssh_port> \
    --target-port <target_ssh_port> \
    --port-forward <forward_to_port>

Replace <jump_host_user>, <jump_host_address>, <target_host_user>, <target_host_address>, <jump_ssh_port>, <target_ssh_port>, and <forward_to_port> with your desired values.

Connect with Profile

You can connect to an SSH tunnel using a profile name with the following command:

rssh-tunnel connect --profile <profile_name>

Replace <profile_name> with the name of the profile you want to connect to.

Managing Profiles

You can also manage your profiles by listing all profiles or checking the profiles directory path.

To list all profiles:

rssh-tunnel profiles

To show the profiles directory path:

rssh-tunnel path
