Episode Details

The ssh-ng store implementation allows connecting to remote daemons over ssh. However, between server management, key exchanges, and device discovery, SSH is not the most user friendly. Unfortunately ssh-ng is also the only store implementation for active remotes built into nix. Let's ignore that fact and forward a remote daemon via P2P instead. Why would you do this? Does this work? And what can we learn from it? This talk might answer any or all of that. about this event: https://talks.nixcon.org/nixcon-2025/talk/FBZBUS/
