Use proxy.. To avoid using proxy
« on: November 26, 2019, 03:38:41 pm »
Hey there.
This my first post here. I was not sure where to create this thread, since is not even particular for Lazarus, or Pascal, or even a program language. Is more a conceptual question im not figuring out.
BUT, im working with Lazarus for this project so.. i ask here.
Is a very specific question but i dont expect specifics answers. Just ideas about how could i figure this out will be enough for me.

Im working on a server-client program. Actually, a server-proxy-client program.
This proxy is necesary and used for authentication, and at the same time it allows me to avoid opening ports both in Server and Client sides.

The thing is, im getting better results using a direct connection between server and client, instead of using the proxy for the entire session.

So.. I wondering: Is there any way to use the proxy JUST for authentication, but then in some way stablish a direct tunnel between server and client? BUT (here is the tricky part) avoiding opening ports anywhere except the proxy?.
Maybe even the Proxy itself could stablish this third tunnel (counting the previous client-proxy and server-proxy tunnels)?

Any idea about how to do this (o how to do it better!) will be aprecciated

Thank you in advance
