* Package name : nodepass Version : 1.9.0 Upstream Author : yosebyte <https://github.com/yosebyte> * URL : https://github.com/yosebyte/nodepass * License : BSD-3-Clause Programming Lang: Go Section : net Description: Lightweight TCP/UDP tunneling solution written in Go NodePass is a lightweight, cross-platform tunneling tool designed for secure and efficient TCP and UDP forwarding. . It supports multiple relay modes, authentication, and encrypted channels. The project aims to provide a simple but powerful alternative to classic tunneling tools (e.g., SSH port forwarding or stunnel), with an easy-to-deploy Go-based implementation. . Features: * TCP and UDP tunneling over secure channels * Lightweight and dependency-free (pure Go) * Configurable via CLI or JSON * Optional encryption and authentication * Compatible with Linux, macOS, and Windows . This package provides the `nodepass` binary for system-wide use. Rationale: The package provides a modern, efficient network tunneling utility for developers and system administrators. Its minimal footprint and simple configuration make it ideal for lightweight network relay scenarios or self-hosted VPN replacements. It fills a similar niche as `frp` or `ngrok`, but is fully open-source and locally deployable. Remarks: - The upstream project is active and tagged releases are available. - The Debian package is being prepared as `nodepass (1.9.0-1)` using the “3.0 (quilt)” source format. - Lintian clean-ups and Debian Policy updates (Standards-Version 4.7.2) will be completed prior to upload. - I am seeking a sponsor for the initial upload (mentors.debian.net). Maintainer: <Leslie Alexander> <[email protected]> VCS: https://github.com/yosebyte/nodepass ITP justification: This ITP announces my intention to package NodePass for Debian, fulfilling the Debian Developer’s Reference §5.1 requirement to avoid duplicate packaging efforts and to notify the community of this new package.
