<DIV><SPAN class=521564518-18102005><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a situation
in which I have a client system, a middle-tier application server, and a
backend database. The middle-tier takes info from the client and sends
requests to the database, in other words the middle-tier has to act as both a
client and a server in different parts of a transaction. Is it
necessary that I run two instances of stunnel, one with an
stunnel-client.conf wherein client=yes and another instance with
stunnel-server.conf wherein client=no or is it possible to configure a
single stunnel to do this? I would guess it would be kind of like
having "client=yes|no" at the service level; this is not an option as
far as I can see from the man page for 4.12 but I figured I could at least
ask.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></BODY></HTML>
