FAQPage Schema
How do I expose my localhost server to the internet over SSH?▼

You can expose localhost to the internet by establishing an SSH reverse tunnel for local port forwarding. This creates a public URL that routes external traffic directly to your local development server without requiring additional software installations.

What is SSH reverse tunneling for local port forwarding?▼

SSH reverse tunneling is a technique that forwards a local port to a remote server, enabling access to local services over the internet. It allows external requests to reach your local machine through an established SSH connection.

Do I need to install any software to create localhost tunnels?▼

No additional software installation is required to create localhost tunnels. You only need a standard SSH client and a Pinggy account to establish reverse SSH tunnels for local port forwarding over the internet.

Can I use SSH tunneling to receive webhook callbacks on my local machine?▼

Yes, you can use SSH tunneling to receive webhook callbacks locally. By forwarding your local port to a public URL via a reverse SSH tunnel, external services can send webhooks directly to your local environment.

What's the best way to share a local development server with a remote team?▼

The best way to share a local development server is creating a zero-install localhost tunnel over SSH. This provides a public internet URL that allows your remote team to access your local services instantly without complex network configuration.
