[mosh-devel] Mosh-based infrastructure for remote management of remote devices

[Keith Winstein]

Hello -- thanks for your kind words! It is probably possible to adapt
mosh-server to do what you propose here (basically allowing the server to
roam instead of the client), but we have not done this or shipped it. I
think most people probably do just use an auto-roaming VPN (e.g. OpenVPN or
probably Wireguard) and then run Mosh on top of that.

If you want to dig in, look at mosh-server.cc and
mosh-client.cc/stmclient.cc and flip around which one runs the "server"
side of the network connection...

Best regards,
Keith
