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?
