<br>Michael is right. You really do not need the GUI as there isn't much you can do except maybe watch the logs and reload the configuration. You can save off the peer certificate, but I doubt that is used regularly and is more of a debug function in my opinion. You can reload the configuration by stopping/starting the service. As far as watching the logs, you can install GNU Utilities for Win32 and then tail the logs: <a href="http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/">http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/</a><br>

Okay, I managed to get 4.45 working as a service. My only question<br>
is, how are your bringing up the Stunnel status window?<br>
<br>
Even with taskbar = yes, I don't get an icon in the notification<br>
area like I do with Windows XP.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
