Description-en: Universal SSL tunnel for network daemons
The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption
wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or
remote server. The concept is that having non-SSL aware daemons
running on your system you can easily setup them to
communicate with clients over 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 programs' code.
.
This package contains a wrapper script for compatibility with stunnel 3.x
