It should be easy to hook any TCP connection into qrexec using socat.

Something like this (untested):

source VM: launch this somewhere (/rw/config/rc.local?)

socat TCP-LISTEN:4444,fork EXEC:"qrexec-client-vm target-vm my-tcp-service"

target VM: /usr/local/etc/qubes-rpc/my-tcp-service (this is stored in /rw):

socat STDIO TCP:localhost:4444

dom0: /etc/qubes-rpc/policy/my-tcp-service

source-vm target-vm allow

@Joeviocoe: It would be awesome if this could be merged into the Qubes Network Server project, instead of pushing files manually into qubes.

@Rudd-O made it in such way that the Firewall GUI supported an additional "from-" prepending addresses and ports. His code was applied for each machines that had assigned static ips, making a generalist solution, both interesting for UDP and TCP.
