The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper
|
|
between a remote client and a local (inetd-startable) or remote server.
|
|
The concept is that despite having non-SSL aware daemons running on your
|
|
system, you can easily set them up to communicate with clients over
|
|
a secure SSL channel.
|
|
|
|
stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd
|
|
daemons like POP-2, POP-3 and IMAP servers without any changes in
|
|
the program code.
