Easysoft recommends the use of Zebedee.

Zebedee is a simple program that can be used to establish an encrypted, compressed "tunnel" for TCP/IP or UDP data transfer between two systems.

Zebedee is a neat little program which works on various Unix and Windows platforms and is distributed in source and binary form. It works with two compression libraries (zlib and bzip2) and currently one encryption library, blowfish.

Zebedee is easy to build and works quite simply. You run Zebedee on your server where it listens on a predetermined port. You then run Zebedee on the client machine where you specify the server, the server port where Zebedee is running and the port for the normal service you want to use. The Zebedee client then returns a port on your local machine which your client software can use to communicate with the remote service using encryption and compression. The client and server application and the service code do not need to be changed in any way.

Note, that Zebedee requires to be installed on each client. Full details of the installation process can be found here.
