Webtunnel 0.0.4 Copyright 2009 Janos Szatmary E-mail: jszatmary () users sourceforge net Web: http://webtunnel.sourceforge.net WHAT'S NEW 2009/03/06 Added option to output log messages to a file instead of STDERR Improved command line usage and included verbose help option 2009/02/21 Added child wait in server to fix zombies under FastCGI Added user authentication based on HTTP user Added access control lists based on user Changed the default debug level to 1 Changed some command line behavior 2009/02/05 Client certificate/key support for SSL Documented some of the configuration options 2009/02/03 First public release ABOUTWebtunnel is a network utility that encapsulates arbitrary data in HTTP and transmits it through a web server. In that regard, it is similar to httptunnel, however, it has several key important differences: its server component runs in the context of a web server as a CGI application (with optional FastCGI support) so it does not need its own port, and supports most things that the web server supports, such as authentication, HTTP 1.1, HTTPS, and client certificates; it uses simple requests and responses so it works seamlessly through forward and reverse proxies; it is multi-threaded (actually multi-process using sockets for inter-process communication) to allow multiple parallel connections to multiple
destinations simultaneously.
