[Quoted] Consider the following scenario:

A database client talks to a database server using the native database protocol. Now we want to separate both client and server and put them at different internet sites which are each protected by a firewall. Let us assume the HTTP protocol is - by administration - the only trusted protocol to get through the firewalls.

Are there any products/tools out there which allow the native database protocol to be tunneled within HTTP packets? If not, do you have any idea how we can successfully do it ourselves (certainly the native protocol is non-public)?

Thanks in advance for all your help.
