Description : Simple TCP service encryption using TLS/SSL
CryWrap is a simple Unix service that sits over any simple
TCP service such as POP3, IMAP, SMTP and encrypts all of
the data on the connection using TLS/SSL. It can run as a
standalone daemon, or from inetd, and can encrypt data for
remote services too.
.
It works with the servers you already have and does not
require any modifications to your existing servers.
.
CryWrap is intended to be a drop-in replacement for sslwrap.
(The original purpose of CryWrap was to write something more stable
than sslwrap, which stopped accepting connections every few days on a
friends box, and proved to be royally unstable. CryWrap has been
running for more than two months on the same server, and Just
Works(tm). Even though the command-line syntax is pretty different, a
compatibility script, which takes sslwrap-like options and translates
them for CryWrap, is also provided)
