I have several questions related to the security aspect of that protocol. I'm looking for a place or resource where I can ask those type of questions. Could anyone please recommend a good mailing list or other resource for this kind of thing? I've checked this out on Google, but I haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for.

Check out stunnel. Or, you can probably make do with ssh if you figure out the right command-line options. https://www.stunnel.org/index.html On Tue, Jul 28, 2015 at 9:55 PM, Gerry Weaver wrote: > Hello All, > > I need to create a secure point-to-point tunnel protocol for a project > that I'm working on.
