I asked about wrapping VNC signals in HTTP to get through a firewall that seems to block almost everything else. I've found a program, Stunnel, that seems to do the job, but I'm having a bit of trouble setting it up. Has anyone here used Stunnel?
It turns out there is Stunnel and Stunnel4, which requires a config file. On the Stunnel site, they have examples of VNC, in Linux to Linux, and Windows to Windows. The problem is the Windows example are using pre-Stunnel4 and I am having trouble sorting through what is used for each end of the process in the Windows example. There's also the issue of the SSL cert, which is something I've never dug into. I'm trying to work this out, since it provides not only a wrapper to let VNC traffic go through most firewalls, but there are networking details that I've never dealt with. Has anyone here used Stunnel? It would also help if anyone can tell me how to monitor network IO on Linux and/or Windows so I can see what is going out and what isn't? This looks simple, but networking is not my thing, so if anyone has looked over Stunnel and may be able to help or make suggestions, any comments are appreciated. Once there's a working solution for this, I want to document it clearly (certainly in more detail than what I've found), since I know others on this list have asked similar questions.
