<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Some thoughts about a thread from may: Stunnel works ok under Windows7 64bit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">But:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">There are some windows7-specific security restraints one should be aware of:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Windows7 does not allow programs to have write-access to c:\program files and c:\program files (x86) (win7 64bit).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">You can find the logfile in hidden directory c:\users\Youruser\appdata\local\virtualstore\program files\stunnel\stunnel.log
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> ( Youruser is the windows user which started stunnel )<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">If you want a common logfile for all users, either you install stunnel in another writeable directory (security risk ?)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">or if installing in program files change your stunnel.conf file to have the log file in a writeable directory e.g. c:\temp<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">or the standard common data directory c:\programData (also a hidden directory )<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I use stunnel as a service and defined “output = c:\programData\stunnel\stunnel.log”
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">stunnel writes there and only users with admin access could change the logfile.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
