Custom SSH server written in Go. Instead of a shell, you get a chat prompt.
Join the party:
$ ssh chat.shazow.net
(Apologies if the server is down.)
Usage:
ssh-chat [OPTIONS]
Application Options:
-v, --verbose Show verbose logging.
-b, --bind= Host and port to listen on. (0.0.0.0:22)
-i, --identity= Private key to identify server with. (~/.ssh/id_rsa)
Help Options:
-h, --help Show this help message
After doing go get github.com/shazow/ssh-chat on this repo, you should be able
to run a command like:
$ ssh-chat --verbose --bind ":2022" --identity ~/.ssh/id_dsa
To bind on port 22, you'll need to make sure it's free (move any other ssh daemons to another port) and run ssh-chat as root (or with sudo).
You can run ssh-chat using a Docker image without manually installing go-lang:
$ docker pull alvin/ssh-chat
$ docker run -d -p 0.0.0.0:(your host machine port):2022 --name ssh-chat alvin/ssh-chat
Or you can build your own image:
$ docker build -t (your-docker-username)/ssh-chat .
then run it:
$ docker run -d -p 0.0.0.0:(your host machine port):2022 --name ssh-chat (your-docker-username)/ssh-chat
If you're developing on this repo, there is a handy Makefile that should set
things up with make run.
