About:
Gotun is a lightweight command-line utility that creates a secure HTTP proxy tunnel over an existing SSH connection. It enables access to web services on remote networks without exposing ports or complex VPN setups. This makes it an ideal solution for quick, secure access to internal tools and APIs.
Key Features:
  • Lightweight and fast
  • No server-side installation required
  • Simple command-line interface
  • Secure SSH tunneling
Use Cases:
  • Accessing internal web dashboards securely
  • Tunneling HTTP traffic through firewalls
  • Quickly exposing local services for remote debugging
Alternatives:
  • ssh -D – Built-in SOCKS proxy, but requires client-side configuration.
  • ngrok – More feature-rich but requires external service and exposes public URLs.
