Comment on What's up, selfhosters? It's self hosting Sunday!

I’ve set up Pangolin on my VPS and had no problems accessing docker services on my homelab remotely. However, I don’t know how I am supposed to SSH or SFTP to my homelab. Will I connect to my VPS instead? Would I need to break Pangolin or expose a vulnerability to do so?

Honestly I am in need of a proper networking tutorial at this point.

According to the Pangolin docs it supports raw TCP and UDP connections.

For SSH you can also try to use the VPS as a jump host like this:

$ ssh user@vpn-homelab-ip -J user@vps-ip

  I would never have found this on my own otherwise. I feel any amount of gratitude would fall short of compensating for how much time and effort it has saved me. Thank you regardless.
  
  If possible, can you share how I can achieve the same effect with SFTP?

    Either use the sftp command it also supports the -J option or use SSH tunneling. For example here I bind the port 4533 to my local port 8080.
    
    $ ssh -L 8080:vpn-homelab-ip:4533 user@vps-ip (user@vps) $
    
    I can now open a new shell and run:
    
    $ curl http://localhost:8080/ <a href="/app/">Found</a>.
    
    You could also do it this way:
    
    $ ssh -L 8080:localhost:4533 user@vpn-homelab-ip -J leonhardt@vps-ip (user@homelab) $
