I wanted to send a

BIG THANKS

to

Jan Mojžíš

for having written

https://github.com/janmojzis/tlswrapper

which is a TLS wrapper written in the UNIX way. I've been looking for a
program like that for a little while to be able to continue to use
Daniel J. Bernstein's tcpserver (wrapped in TLS).

And another thank-you for the fact that tlswrapper can read a single
file including the full chain of certificates and the private key of the
server.

(*) FreeBSD

I could not find a precompiled package of tlswrapper in FreeBSD's pkg
collection. Perhaps I should make that contribution.

(*) The ucspi-ssl package

There's sslserver from the ucspi-ssl package at

https://www.fehcom.de/ipnet/ucspi-ssl.html

but it hasn't been easy to compile it.

(*) inetd and xinetd

I did look at the current state of affairs of inetd and xinetd and it
looks like they ignore TLS completely. Perhaps they shouldn't?

If you look at the tlswrapper docs, you’ll see that it can be invoked via
inetd (or systemd), and it in turn wraps the actual service process.

That makes sense.
