Fived

Fived is an experimental network daemon which puts the session layer back into the modern Internet. This project provides a series of features that eliminates the need for, or changes the role of: VPNs, port numbers, firewalls, port knocking, SSL, vhosts, per-daemon authentication, SRV records, load balancing, etc... A proof-of-concept RFC 1078 complaint daemon has been created to demonstrate the vision for this project.

Now we're working to move the proof of concept into a tool that someone might want to use. We have not completed this work as of yet, but for those of you interested in taking a look:
