hi ml,
i searched the list about an idea, but didn't find the complete answer, so i would ask:
i am thinking about a https website (with logon), where you can download a completly preconfigured package (java-applet?) which checks HTTP_PROXY on unix and the msie registry settings on windows and connect a local port to a remote running stunnel, listening on port 443 (the stunnel ist running on a different ip).
currently there are imho two points, which need solved: 1.) there is no proxy support, without a patch 2.) it is currently not possible to download a preconfigured package
are there some thoughts?
greetings thomas

We once made a 'stunnel-in-a-box' thing that was targeted at making client certificate authentication easier. It worked quite well but management didn't perceive it as an idea to continue. So it was fridged.
We currently have a 'network detective' that includes a builder portal. Where it is easy to create your own checks. You could probably hack a software install into that as well.
Let me know if you want to know more.
