Hi,
is it possible with stunnel to connect from host A to host B but to have the port redirection the other way?
host A has a webserver on 127.0.0.1:80 host A connects to Host B (example.dyndns.org:8000) Host B opens a browser on page http://127.0.0.1:80 and reaches the webserver on A
If yes, how do I have to configure A and B? The manpage didn't enlighten me. The normal way A connects to B and A reaches webserver on B works perfectly.
greetings Carsten

SSL provides a 1:1 cryptographic protection of a TCP connection. For additional services (e.g. multiple data streams) you either need a different protocol (e.g. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4251.txt), or an additional proprietary protocol encapsulated within the standard SSL (so called "SSL VPNs" take this approach). Please bear in mind such "SSL VPN" is no longer just SSL encryption, as it needs this proprietary protocol implemented on both ends. Stunnel does not break SSL this way.
