Next Terminal is an open-source bastion host (jump server) and interactive session auditing system supporting SSH, RDP, VNC, Telnet, HTTP, SFTP, and database access from a web interface. It centralizes asset and credential management, fine-grained authorization, session recording and replay, and dangerous-command interception for compliance.

Use cases

  • set up a bastion host for server access
  • record and replay SSH and RDP sessions for auditing
  • replace JumpServer or Teleport with a lightweight alternative
  • centralize SSH credentials and server access for a team
  • audit privileged access for compliance
  • block dangerous commands on SSH sessions
  • give browser-based access to internal servers and desktops

When to choose

  • you need a self-hosted jump server with session recording and replay
  • you want unified web access to SSH, RDP, VNC, and web assets
  • you need fine-grained per-user/asset authorization and login policies
  • you want LDAP/OIDC/Passkey integration for privileged access

When to avoid

  • you need fully open-source backend code - the backend is closed source since v2.0.0
  • you need more than 100 assets without purchasing a commercial license
  • you only need simple SSH access without auditing features
