[stunnel-users] Server connecting back to client?

I've looked through the man pages, FAQ's, examples, and found one post
(without a reply:
http://stunnel.mirt.net/pipermail/st...ay/000487.html) about
this, but still don't have my question answered.

I have a machine outside the firewall (let's call it outThere) that needs to
connect back to a machine inside the firewall (let's call in inHere) for
backup procedures. Now, because of the firewall, outThere cannot connect to
inHere, but inHere can connect to anything on outThere that it wants.

Can I initiate an stunnel connection from inHere to outThere, and then have
stunnel on outThere listen on a localhost port, which, when connected to,
would actually forward the connection (over SSL) back to a configured port on
inHere? Is this at all doable?
