dssh

dssh is an SSH wrapper that uses iroh to set up connectivity. The dssh binary wraps ssh with a ProxyCommand that calls itself in client mode, so only one executable needs to be on PATH.

Binaries

• dssh: drop-in SSH wrapper.
• dssh --client: internal client used by the proxy command; can be called manually if needed.
• dssh-server: runs on the destination to provide the ticket for the client and forward traffic to local SSH.

How it works

dssh spawns ssh with -o ProxyCommand="<full_path>/dssh --client <destination> dssh-server" <destination> [ssh_args...]. The client invocation connects via iroh using the ticket printed by dssh-server on the destination.

Usage

1. Install the binaries on both client and server machines.
2. Connect with dssh <destination> [ssh args...] (for example dssh user@example.com).
