Hello everyone, the Teleport team is here to answer any questions.
Internally we use Teleport as a library to connect multiple clusters into a structured system of doing ops with solid identity management, but we figured it deserves to be its own tool, especially because so many larger companies in the Valley have built something similar internally.
- LukeHoersten 11y agoThanks for releasing this. Any plans to package via brew or apt?
- old-gregg 11y agoWorking on Debian packaging, yes. Haven't looked into brew yet but all contributions are welcome! :)
- doublerebel 11y agoI'd much rather see it in pkgsrc than brew. Then it can easily be applied to the *BSDs and SmartOS.
- nathancahill 11y agoHuh, TIL about pkgsrc. Been using brew for years.
- otterley 11y ago1) How does session archiving work with non-line-oriented applications? (e.g. top and its brethren) 2) Does it ever capture passwords (or any other non-echoed characters) by accident? 3) Does it require a TTY? 4) Can it multiplex sessions across multiple servers?
- alexk 11y ago> 1) How does session archiving work with non-line-oriented applications? (e.g. top and its brethren) We capture and replay the whole stream, so playback works well with top/mc/emacs/vim etc > 2) Does it ever capture passwords (or any other non-echoed characters) by accident? If you accidentally type in password in your active session that will be visible, session capture will record it, yes. We plan on encrypting everything just in case at rest though: https://github.com/gravitational/teleport/issues/262 https://github.com/gravitational/teleport/issues/262 > 3) Does it require a TTY? You'd need PTY for interactive sessions, however `exec` will work through ssh just as well (as long as teleport talks vanilla SSH) > 4) Can it multiplex sessions across multiple servers? Yes, we just did not expose it in the UI yet
- otterley 11y agoCan you post a demo of multiplexing? That'd be extremely interesting. Also, most importantly, are there man pages?
- alexk 11y agoWe'll work on the multiplexing demo, sure! Man pages are a good idea, we wrote a bunch of docs: http://gravitational.com/teleport/docs/quickstart/ http://gravitational.com/teleport/docs/quickstart/ but haven't packaged it all into man pages yet
- fishnchips 11y agoFunny, I once wrote a small utility (https://github.com/codequest-eu/teleport https://github.com/codequest-eu/teleport) that goes by the same name.
