RE: FW: OPENSSL + NETCAT

Try also 'cryptcat' by farm9.com, available all over the place or at
www.farm9.com 

Cryptcat is netcat with twofish encryption, and full source, of course.
Also rcrypt is a rhinedahl (sp) encryption tool available from farm9.

You can use Stunnel (http://www.stunnel.org)
It will provide you with the appropriate SSL wraping.
Simply compile it, and from there, the sky is the limit...
Here are a couple of ideas:
1. You can brute forece logins (over the encrypted link, like you said
nothing but net) 2. You could use stuff like whisker and use it on top
of the ssl wrapper.

Hope this helps.

In conducting a pen-test, I have run into a situation where I would 
like to transmit data (without using cryptcat) by using OpenSSL and
Netcat
through the firewall and past the IDS (nothing but net...heheh..).
Any
tips on how to "play catch" across the network using SSL and netcat on 
both the client and the server?  Thanks for the help!

Schematic ?
[pc]----files(over ssl)---->[firewall]--->[IDS]---->files(over ssl)
--->[external server]
                      |
                  [IDS]
                      |
                  [DMZ]
