Can I forward UDP services over stunnel?
As described thus far, no. Stunnel works with SSL, which runs only on TCP.
There are ways to forward UDP packets over TCP, and in principle these
should be able to work over stunnel.
There are also other programs that do this natively, and could be used
standalone or via stunnel, such as Zebedee. If you have any success
tunneling UDP over stunnel, please contact the faq maintainer so we can
write up a good HOWTO for folks.
