sslh -- A ssl/ssh multiplexer.
sslh lets one accept both HTTPS and SSH connections on the
same port. It makes it possible to connect to an SSH server
on port 443 (e.g. from inside a corporate firewall) while
still serving HTTPS on that port.
Compilation instructions:
Solaris:
cc -o sslh sslh.c -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl
LynxOS:
gcc -o tcproxy tcproxy.c -lnetinet
Linux:
cc -o sslh sslh.c -lnet
or:
cc -o sslh sslh.c
To compile with libwrap support:
cc -o sslh -DLIBWRAP sslh.c -lwrap
To install:
make
cp sslh /usr/local/sbin
cp scripts/etc.init.d.sslh /etc/init.d/sslh
cp scripts/etc.default.sslh /etc/default/sslh
You can edit settings in /etc/default/sslh:
PIDFILE=/var/run/sslh.pid
LISTEN=ifname:443
SSH=localhost:22
SSL=localhost:443
A good scheme is to use the external name of the machine in
$LISTEN, and bind httpd to localhost:443: that way, https
connections coming from inside your network don't need to go
through sslh, and sslh is only there as a frontal for
connections coming from the internet.
Sslh can optionnaly perform libwrap checks for the sshd
service: because the connection to sshd will be coming
locally from sslh, sshd cannot determine the IP of the
client.

HISTORY
v1.5: 10DEC2008
Fixed zombie generation.
Added support scripts (), Makefile.
Changed all 'connexions' to 'connections' to please
pesky users. Damn users.
v1.4: 13JUL2008
Added libwrap support for ssh service (Christian Weinberger)
Only SSH is libwraped, not SSL.
v1.3: 14MAY2008
Added parsing for local interface to listen on
Changed default SSL connection to port 442 (443 doesn't make
sense as a default as we're already listening on 443)
Syslog incoming connections
v1.2: 12MAY2008
Fixed compilation warning for AMD64 (Thx Daniel Lange)
v1.1: 21MAY2007
Making sslhc more like a real daemon:
* If $PIDFILE is defined, write first PID to it upon startup
* Fork at startup (detach from terminal)
(thanks to http://www.enderunix.org/docs/eng/daemon.php -- good checklist)
* Less memory usage (?)
v1.0:
* Basic functionality: privilege dropping, target hostnames and ports
configurable.
