  I would like to have such a service also, so I did some preparation:

  • I prepared a package for tumbleweed and leap: obs://home:M0ses/tmate-slave
    • Leap and Tumbleweed
    • Feel free to comment
  • tmate-slave only builds against msgpack < 1.0.0 (e.g. 0.5.9)
  • known_hosts file might prevent from connecting if you already connect the same host with normal ssh

    Did you hear about kibitz? It's an old tool providing this functionality, implemented in tcl and expect.

  No, never heard about kibitz, but taken from the kibitz man page:

  If you start kibitz to user2 on a remote computer, kibitz performs a rlogin to the remote computer with your current username
  

  IMO, a tool using rlogin should not be used anymore.

  Advantage I see in tmate:

  • it runs as a central service which makes it easy to remember
  • easy to use without need of local accounts for both parties on one host (like in case of screen,tmux etc)
  • Firewall rules don`t matter, as the host (the user who wants to share a session) has no incomming ssh traffic on his machine

  I installed the package on a VM and documented how to try it under http://e144.suse.de

  A few things missing, to make it a "real" internal service

  • registered DNS-Name (e.g. tmate.suse.de)
  • A productive VM (e.g. in cloud.suse.de with SLE 12)
  • operational concept ???

    Nice job. The only thing that I've noticed is that only the tmate hostname is shown in the status bar instead of the FQDN.

    Did you start the tmate-slave with the -h parameter and the FQDN?

    tmate-slave -k /etc/tmate-slave/keys/ -h tmate.suse.de -l /var/log/tmate-slave.log &

  If you get the following error message :

  [tmate] Error connecting: kex error : no match for method server host key algo: server [ssh-dss,ssh-rsa], client [ecdsa-sha2-nistp256] 
  

  then cleanup your known_hosts file

  Service is up and running, but not yet reboot aware (loosing hostname during reboot). Maybe one of the cloud guys could shade some light on my, why this is happening.

  Service seems to be reboot aware now. hostname problem could be solved due to a tip from @ms to "cloud-init". After repackaging with systemd service files instead of init script, tmate-slave is coming up properly after reboot
