When setting up my own sTunnels to run VNC and OpenSSH, I eventually ran into this page:
http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/cgi-bin/fom?_recurse=1&file=28

...which led to this one:
http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677

...which, though the latter is for Windows, I found to be an EXCELLENT explanation of the settings necessary on the server and client sides (and just what's going on!). It's worth a look; just absorb the sTunnel talk and assume VNC as your "third party app."

Also, while I understand that you're using sTunnel (and may be required to do so), this article may be a quick-and-dirty approach to testing:

Where again, VNC is just your third party application. In any case, I've been working with sTunnel for a while now, so if I catch a response from you I may be able to help.

Hi Folks,

Well I know a little more now than before. The
version of Stunnel I'm using is Stunnel 4.05 running under Fedora 7.0. I
am trying to setup a test scenario at the moment where I am running a
stream socket between a client and a server, both mine since this is a
test scenario. I need thisese programs to connect over a secure socket
and the exchange of data is a custom application. I've read through
Barry O'donovan's article and that seems to give me the information on
how to configure and use Stunnel on the server side. It is not clear to
me yet, what I need to do to the client side. Is there anyone out there
who has done this type of thing and could give me some help?

Thanks in advance,

Paul Harmon
