Bookmarked your page. Am building embedded devices and thought about having them keep reverse tunnels to some gateway server. Cool, that there's a dedicated service for that! Have my own domain but am still eager to outsource this part.

Some things to note:

- The sshReach.me logo in the topbar links to https://sshreach.me/init/default/index.html rather than https://sshreach.me. Expected the latter to have a clean URL to bookmark.

- At the very bottom of https://sshreach.me/init/default/index.html, the links {debian,arch,mint,...} link to the distro homepages. I expected links going to distro-specific guides on how to set these distros up to use our service.

- The Yocto project is quite popular for building embedded devices. It would probably push your service, if you would provide yocto recipes which make the created systems maintain reverse ssh tunnels to your service.



Hi, thanks for the feedback.

- Both links lead to the same place but thanks for the advice, we will change the link on the logo.

- There are no distro specific guides because for every distro the setup is the same - just download our client script and run it. It is made to work with minimal python install and to work on every distro.

- I haven't heard of Yocto project, I will definitely look into it, thanks for the info.
