I’ve just started hosting stuff and i’ve been using frp’s stcp to make stuff accessible when i’m at school. I was wondering if I should bother setting up/switching over to wireguard which is apparently the way to go?

You didn’t expose it to the internet right? Right?

Use Netbird and a network share. I don’t know what stcp is but I would go with SMB or syncthing

From the link in the post it’s a reverse proxy backed by terminos which is a secure OS for kubernetes and is really good, so I imagine this proxy is also really good. So OPs setup is already likely fine as is.

Still why risk it? It seems like there are better ways to do this

How are you using Netbird in your setup if I may ask?

What are ACLs? And do you use the self hosted or the hosted option?

The proxy you are using seems like a good one and if you are using auth on it you aren’t exposing the services under it directly, so the vulnerability would be proxy or your password to reach any potential vulnerabilities on the service. Sure there could be some crazy bad vulnerability on the proxy, but as long as your using a good trusted one and not doing some config to bypass their security, and updating it, you should be fine. Some people here think you could use vpns and such for everything and sometimes you just gotta share your services and going through a proxy service is a good solution.

Anything on the internet gets hammered. As soon as there is any sort of vulnerability you are compromised.

You don’t need to take that risk
