Description-en: Make localhost servers publicly visible
PageKite is a system for running publicly visible servers (generally
web servers) on machines without a direct connection to the Internet,
such as mobile devices or computers behind restrictive firewalls.
PageKite works around NAT, firewalls and IP-address limitations by
using a combination of tunnels and reverse proxies.
.
Natively supported protocols: HTTP, HTTPS
Partially supported protocols: IRC, Finger
.
Any other TCP-based service, including SSH and VNC, may be exposed
as well to clients supporting HTTP Proxies.
