I am looking for something a couple of notches more capable than stunnel.
What I have working with stunnel:
* client:
o windows running proprietary app
o stunnel-3.26 running in client mode
o simple firewall -- all client go through
* server
o Linux/Solaris proprietary app offering service on a port
o stunell-3.26 running in server mod, redirecting to port above
o open port through firewall
So the ssl tunnel works, but in a limited enviroment. I need to find
something like the stunnel client bit that lets the software run in a
variety of more restrictive network environments:
* Pays attention to the proxy settings that IE uses
* Knows how to authenticate to proxy servers that use NTLM
authetication to identify users (used mostly for which web sites
people can go to)
* simple install -- a couple of .dlls and a .exe would be ideal
* Preferrably configurable with a simple text file or registry settings
SSLproxy (http://www.obdev.at/products/ssl-proxy) seemed at first to be
the answer, but I don't want to install Python on all the possible clients.
Ideas appreciated.
