 |
|
Does anyone know if there is something like some external program for P10 IRCd's to make it possible to add SSL-encryption to the network for Windows ?
I contacted the programmer of the BewareIRCd, and he informed me he wasn't going to add an option to the future releases of the ircd which makes ssl-encryption possible. Maybe there is an unofficial patch?
Any help or advice to this issue will be appreciated  |

http://www.stunnel.org/ should help you.
It's a program that can listen on one port for SSL connections, on accepting one, connects to a specified host on another port using non-ssl. However the only down side is that all SSL connections will appear to come from the IP stunnel connects from. |

Ah great
Thanx mate! 
I've got it going, but is it also possible to have the users logging into the server on the ssl-wrapped port and maintaining their own hostmask/ip?
I got stunnel running on the same machine as the ircd, and when i connect from another pc with another isp on the ssl-wrapped port, it logs me into the net through the local ip of the server... |
