The way I see it, there's a level of complexity above which SSH becomes too painful to administer. So now what? Well, unless you find something inbetween you are up for setting up a full VPN and managing the complexity and security of that. And if your network needs are quite fluid, that itself is going to be a pain. Zerotier to me looks like that "something inbetween". But I'd be interested in Sam's comments.
- simplecto 6y agoExactly -- it is that "something in between" The nice thing with zero-tier is that it is literally two commands to get your network up and connected. hide your eyes if curl|bash makes you cringe... curl https://install.zerotier.com|bash https://install.zerotier.com|bash Then zerotier-cli join <your_network> Go into the Zerotier web admin, check the box, and boom, that machine is on the network, securely. Now I can spin up a bunch of containers for exploration/testing/or non-essential like grafana, prometheus, various exporters, metabase, etc. I try to keep traefik clean and only serving secure traffic to "live" and customer-facing things on 80/443.
