Description

Thank you for this great project, and sorry to bother you!

Can you please provide some examples to limit Chisel server to only allow connection to certain ports (e.g. 8080) from the client side, without using a username/password?

Something like this:

--auth *:8080

Should I use a regex pattern like this? ^(localhost|127\.0\.0\.\d+:|\[::1\]):8080$

I currently run chisel on the server like this:

./chisel --port 80

Any help would be appreciated!

Research direction

Start with the Chisel CLI entry point and inspect the documented behavior of --auth and --authfile alongside the example command ./chisel --port 80. Confirm whether unauthenticated, port-specific client restrictions are supported, then document a working example or clarify the limitation.
