Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/agrinman/tunnelto/issues/18

I'm interested in selfhosting a tunnelto server, but I wouldn't want anyone on the internet to be able to create tunnels with my server. I see there is some API Key concept, but I can't find any instructions on how to set it up server-side. Any help would be appreciated.

This is definitely required - currently, the localhost example in the README doesn't even work because it asks for an API key.

I don't really want to have to rebuild the package to either disable auth or use something other than Dynamo.
