Request: Execute without any security (aka without certificates)

Open lars18th opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

Perhaps this is already commented. But I don't found it on the documentation...

Please, can you explain how to connect ssfc and ssfs without certificates? It's the release version compiled with the option for disabling the security?

I see something related to compile with "SSF_SECURITY" as "FORCE_TCP_ONLY", but I like to run the release version over one TCP encrypted tunnel, and I like to disable all security only this in particular case. It's this feasible?

Thank you!

It is not possible to disable the transport security on the prebuilt binaries.

As you mentioned it, this is a compilation option which is mainly used for debug purpose. It is not planned to release binary with security disabled.

The only way is to generate them from sources.

Hi,

It is not possible to disable the transport security on the prebuilt binaries.

But, why not include it? Imagine SSF over SSF tunnel... and you like to disable certificates in the second level (trusted tunnel). You don't like to support this scenerio?

:(

Hi,

Any improvement about this?

I know that "ssf" is a replacement of "ssh" (this great SSF it's be far more powerfull!). However, in several scenarios the SSH is the only option for connecting to a remote host. So if the SSH tunnel handles the security... why not use SSF whitout security?
