Run stunnel from inetd on your clients and servers.  Let the inetd
super-server worry about keeping the connection up.  You won't have to
create any special wrapper scripts or worry about PID's.  We used to do
this to provide SSL-ified POP/IMAP access before these daemons started
to incorporate the SSL layer natively.
