## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

stone is a small TCP/IP packet repeater that works at the application layer. Its packaging appeal is old-school and practical: install one binary, repeat TCP or UDP through a firewall, add SSL support, or bridge simple protocol gaps.

### Projektgeschichte

Hiroaki Sengoku's official page dates stone's copyright to 1995-2021 and publishes version 2.4. The same page describes stone as a repeater for TCP and UDP traffic from inside to outside a firewall or from outside to inside.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The official page emphasizes portability across Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, BSD/OS, SunOS, Solaris, HP-UX, and related Unix systems. The supplied package metadata shows modern packaging in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, and Nix, which keeps this older networking utility reachable through current package managers.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The examples show command-line invocations for telnet, DNS over UDP, NTP over UDP, HTTPS-style SSL wrapping, SSL telnet, and an HTTP proxy. The page also highlights OpenSSL support, POP-to-APOP conversion, IPv6 support, and the project's deliberately small C codebase.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

stone is the kind of compact network tool package maintainers keep around because it solves firewall, proxy, protocol-conversion, and debugging problems without a framework. It represents a classic Unix packaging pattern: a small C utility with decades of practical compatibility.

### Zeitleiste

- 1995: Official page copyright begins for stone.
- 2000: Official page references Nikkei Linux articles explaining stone.
- 2019: Official page lists stone 2.4 as the official release.
