The goal of this page is to propose alternatives that allow AT LEAST to expose local raw TCP ports and local webs (HTTP) to the internet WITHOUT needing to install anything in the other server (only in local if needed).

## Serveo

From https://serveo.net/, it allows several http and port forwarding features for free.

    # Get a random port from serveo.net to expose local port 4444
    ssh -R 0:localhost:4444 serveo.net

    # Expose a web listening in localhost:300 in a random https URL
    ssh -R 80:localhost:3000 serveo.net

## SocketXP

From https://www.socketxp.com/download, it allows to expose tcp and http:

    # Expose tcp port 22
    socketxp connect tcp://localhost:22

    # Expose http port 8080
    socketxp connect http://localhost:8080

## Ngrok

From https://ngrok.com/, it allows to expose http and tcp ports:

    # Expose web in 3000
    ngrok http 8000

    # Expose port in 9000 (it requires a credit card, but you won't be charged)
    ngrok tcp 9000

## Telebit
