If you find this software useful, or would like to express your appreciation and support for my work, please consider buying something for me off of my Amazon.com wishlist. Several thousand people download software I've written from this site every month, and almost nobody has ever bothered with a thank you, let alone a contribution from my wish list. Please consider that many of us write free software because of a love for the community and an enjoyment of the challenge -- a large part of the motivation to continue writing and improving software comes from kkowing that it's appreciated.

HTTPTunnel that allows you to tunnel virtually any protocol over HTTP. More specifically for my purposes, it allows for the relatively painless tunneling of previous efforts to create an RPM distribution for HTTPTunnel. There are a few unique features in this distribution including:

  • Ability to run HTTPTunnel using xinetd
  • Runs the HTTPTunnel server process without root priviliges, in a relatively secure environment
  • Easy configuration of HTTPTunnel server parameters
This release has been developed and tested on RedHat 7.1, and should work just fine on any 7.x-baseed environment. This release hasn't been developed for, nor tested on, Mandrake or other RedHat-derived systems -- you have been warned.
