RDP SSL tunneling with stunnel

stunnel utility can be used to tunnel RDP connexions through HTTPS/SSL in order to pass through proxies. It served the same purpose as the Microsoft RDP gateway, but without requirements for Windows Server and licences. I use it for connections to my home PC from work.

General configuration

The 2 sides for the RDP connexion are :

• The server side :
• The server is the PC you want to connect to (typically your home PC). Remote connections have to be enabled in the computer properties of that machine, and the local firewall adjusted for corresponding traffic (TCP 3389).

Consider your software broken if:

• You're the only one to understand how it works
• You can't remember what a function does just by reading its name
• You're not using a version control system
• You're not using continuous integration
• You're not continuously monitoring the quality of your code
• You have little or no unit tests
• You have little or no integration tests
• You don't use an issue tracker

Comments

every time you write a comment you failed. commented out code is an abomination that must be destroy before it spreads.

Formatting

white space discipline is important Be consistent horizontal scrolls will not be tolerated(between 40 and 120 columns) keep file sizes under control average between 100 lines and never exceed 500
