You could use ssh's port forwarding features and just open a normal
TCP connection to a local port that the local ssh server listens to.
Then the ssh server forwards the traffic through an encrypted tunnel
to the other machine.  Your application doesn't have to know anything
about ssh.

In fact there's a VPN function (using tun/tap) in recent versions of
ssh that should make it even simpler, but I hvean't tried it yet.
