[tor-dev] Simple tool for mobile remote desktops

Hello,

This is an almost trivial utility but I hadn't seen anything quite like it so maybe other folks will find it useful:

"This is just a toy for now. I wanted to get a feel for the interactive performance of onion services, and it's perhaps sometimes useful if you'd like to share a disposable slice of your computer with a phone when they're both behind NAT.

This is a very simple Docker container that runs an xfce4 desktop, novnc, and tor. It will randomly generate a new onion service URL and a VNC password, and show you a tmux with session logs on the left and a big QR code you can scan on the right."

Nothing too fancy, just some shell script and Docker and a lot of Debian. The readme has a couple screenshots if you're curious.

Cheers,

--micah beth

Thanks! Just tested and it works nicely :slight_smile:

You might consider publish this also at
Onion Services · GitLab -- even if it's only a
toy project.
