HTTunnel::Client is the client class for communicating with an Apache::HTTunnel server. It provides a simple interface for reading and writing to the remote socket.

Also included is the httunnel daemon which can be used to easily create HTTP tunnels.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

     % perl Makefile.PL
     % make
     % make test
     % make install

     Note 1: The test suite will require the URL to an Apache::HTTunnel server 
             to run. You will prompted for it during the installation. This 
             server must allow tunnels to localhost:80. That Apache server 
             must also return an HTTP 200 code for a "GET / HTTP/1.0" request. 
             Generally if the server has index.html file in the document root 
             it will be ok.
