This Docker image provides a simple way to establish (and maintain) ssh tunnels. It uses autossh to manage the SSH connection.
docker run --rm -it -p 3000:3000 -v /path/to/id_rsa:/ssh_identity jeroenj/ssh-tunnel 0.0.0.0:3000:localhost:3000 [email protected]
This will establish an SSH connection to example.com
as the user
user. The port 3000
on localhost
(on example.com
) will be tunneled to port 3000
. Port 3000
is then mapped to port 3000
on the Docker host.
An SSH key can be used in order for authentication which can be mounted as a volume at /ssh_identity
. Make sure it's mode is set to 0600
.
