I'm in the same case. I think there are two solutions. 1. Use a UDP packet repeater. http://serverfault.com/questions/390916/mosh-tunnel-via-proxy suggests stone. I'm wondering whether socat or netcat could be used as well. But such a tool needs to be installed on the gateway. So, I'm suggesting a second solution: 2. Use mosh to connect to a server X with a permanent connection, then ssh on the other side. This is what I currently do, and even something like: mosh SSH[*] Mobile -----> screen on server X ----> Host A ----> Host B ----> Host C [*] possibly with ProxyCommand. Now I'm wondering whether mosh could be used in some reverse mode, e.g. because one side is a smartphone (which can move and can be behind a firewall), the other side is a laptop (which can also move and can be behind a firewall), with a possible use of a server with a permanent connection in the middle. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) _______________________________________________ mosh-users mailing list mosh-users@mit.edu http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/mosh-users
