    [Tutorial]Hide behind your VPS (reverse ssh tunnel)

    This may be of use for those of you that want to run server at home and/or have dynamic ip address.
    Hell, even if you are behind firewall, this will let you run the server with one condition. You having VPS with reverse SSH tunnel.


    This is a good resource to read and it explains the concept very well:

    If setup properly, this can have following benefits:
    - Hide your home IP address
    - Run server at home even if ISP blocks those ports
    - No need to open psql ports or host webserver from home, just tunnel psql to VPS and leave web stuff there

    This is by far, the single most helpful thread not only for Aura Kingdom but for the whole private servers in general.
