Jun 22, 2018 at 12:42 comment added Yashas Oh, I didn't know about aws tier 1. It's amazing. It'll help a lot in learning. Thanks for letting me know. Networking is pretty awesome. I am still pretty psyched about Reverse SSH tunneling.
Jun 22, 2018 at 4:08 comment added Tim_Stewart @yashas, have you checked out aws.amazon.com/free/… aws tier 1? You can pretty much host whatever you want.
Jun 21, 2018 at 19:15 comment added Tim_Stewart Absolutely, I have heard it called reverse ssh tunneling before. I'm sure you could find plenty of reading material on Google for bidirectional ssh tunneling. Here is a pretty good answer on the subject. unix.stackexchange.com/questions/46235/…

Jun 21, 2018 at 19:10 comment added Yashas I kinda get it. But I am unfamiliar with SSH tunnels and how the tunnel is used to reach the fenix instance on my laptop. If you know any resources that explain these concepts, please do share. Thanks a lot for you help!
Jun 21, 2018 at 18:54 comment added Tim_Stewart Erm, execpt for it doesn't actually point to your address. You are creating a outbound connection, (the ssh tunnel) tunnel.me which is on a FQDN webserver that is using the ssh tunnel to reach your Fenix instance. Don't be confused by this, it's a service for people who don't know how to port-forward, or people in your situation that do not have a public IP. This can be verified by doing a whois lookup on the domain name address it gives you. It's pretty well explained in this video. youtu.be/liYneTTtYhM
Jun 21, 2018 at 18:41 comment added Yashas That makes sense. But I have a doubt. I found this simple static web server called fenix server. It makes your local development publicly accessible by assigning it a temporary domain name on localtunnel which essentially points to your IP address. How come this works if I am behind a CGN?
