Hi Lohit,
Yes, you can tunnel almost any TCP protocol through SSH, and no, you
don't need a Perl module.
Here's a sample scenario:
Your daemon is running on server system S on port 5555
The ssh daemon is running on S (required)
Your client is connecting from client system C.
Here's what you do:
Start an ssh session from C to S, redirecting local (C) port 9999 to
remote (S) port 1234:
ssh -L 9999:S:1234 S
Now whenever your client connects to local port 9999 on system C ssh
will automatically transfer the connection (over its encrypted tunnel)
to port 1234 on system S. In fact, /anyone/ who connects to port 9999
on C will be automatically, securely be connected to S:1234.
HTH,
