Zebedee

From Gentoo Linux Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Zebedee is a simple program to establish an encrypted, compressed “tunnel” for TCP/IP or UDP data transfer between two systems. This allows traffic such as telnet, ftp and X to be protected from snooping as well as potentially gaining performance over low-bandwidth networks from compression.

The main goals for Zebedee are to:

  • Provide full client and server functionality under both UNIX/Linux and Windows.
  • Be easy to install, use and maintain with little or no configuration required.
  • Have a small footprint, low wire protocol overhead and give significant traffic reduction by the use of compression.
  • Use only algorithms that are either unpatented or for which the patent has expired.
  • Be entirely free for commercial or non-commercial use and distributed under the term of the GNU General Public Licence.
