SSH may be a more suitable approach when using MAC, Linux or Unix that normally includes an SSH client and server as standard. This uses the same connection architecture as above but using SSH client and servers instead of stunnel. See the stunnel documentation and various articles on the web.Īn alternate method for secure connection tunneling is to use SSH. There are numerous options for security and using your own certificates etc. The above configuration uses all the default settings for stunnel.

Add Connection List entries for each SUT but pointing to the local address and port as in step 3.If you have installed stunnel using the installer, there will be various startup options in the Windows Start Menu to start it as a GUI using stunnel.exe or as a service. It will automatically load the nf in the same folder. If running from a command window, run “tstunnel.exe” on each machine.

This assumes your VNC server is using the default port 5900.

Stunnel is free software released under the GNU GPL2 so there are no commercial restrictions for usage although there can be restrictions on the security algorithms for certain regions. For Linux, Unix, or Mac platforms, you can build from source although you may prefer to use SSH tunneling (see Tunneling Using SSH, below). Stunnel has binary installers or stand alone executables for Windows and has a text configuration file. To implement encrypted communication between Eggplant Functional and a system under test (SUT), we recommend using stunnel from Stunnel creates a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption wrapper for the VNC connections that is transparent to both the client and server.
