Description-en: Applicative protocol multiplexer
sslh lets one accept HTTPS, SSH, OpenVPN, tinc and XMPP connections on the
same port. This makes it possible to connect to any of these servers on
port 443 (e.g. from inside a corporate firewall, which almost never block
port 443) while still serving HTTPS on that port.
