Feature Request: Tunnel over ssh #59

Open minego opened 4 months ago

minego commented 4 months ago

I'd really like to try to setup rkvm in my environment, but I'd really like to avoid the overhead of creating a certificate and key, copying the certificate to clients, and having a password set...

It seems obvious to me to tunnel this over an ssh connection, in order to take advantage of existing setups. I trust the security of my ssh setup.

I know I can listen on a local port only, and use ssh tunneling and I think I can make this work with that, but is it possible to avoid the overhead of setting up and syncing a certificate and of having a password? (I suppose the password isn't a big issue as I can just use anything without relying on it being secure.)
