Hi all, Once installed stunnel4 debian package, when I execute stunnel stunnel-mysql-client.conf (given sample) get following errors: Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.7 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/share/perl/5.8/AutoLoader.pm line 3.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Regards, Jorge.

17 Nov '05

Dear Users, I tried to make stunnel more compatible with Filesystem Hierarchy Standard 2.3. Here is the current status: - configuration and certificates are in $prefix/etc/stunnel/ - binaries are in $prefix/sbin/ - default pid file is $prefix/var/run/stunnel.pid - manual is $prefix/man/man8/stunnel.8 - other docs are in $prefix/share/doc/stunnel/ - libstunnel is in $prefix/lib - chroot directory is setup in $prefix/var/lib/stunnel/ this directory is chmoded 1770 and group nogroup Your critical comments are welcome. Best regards, Mike

Visual studio compilation errors

17 Nov '05

Hi, After browsing all previous list messages I havent found information about an error I get compiling stunnel with visual studio. The errors appear in linking step with undefined symbol message: "undefined symbol: LNK2019 undefined symbol _exit_stunnel referenced in function _main_initialize". I also attach the Makefile.w32 changed to work with visual studio. Thanks in advance. Regards, Jorge. Makefile.w32 follows: # Simple Makefile.w32 for stunnel.exe by Michal Trojnara 1998-2000 # # Modified by Brian Hatch (bri(a)stunnel.org) # This makefile is only tested on the mingw compiler.

Hi guys Ok, as I've said in a previous mail, I'm now merely trying to get the linux client to work. In the config file: [ssmtp] accept = 465 connect = 25 But now: louislaptop:/usr/local/etc/stunnel # telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 louislaptop.kpho.local ESMTP Postfix Works fine. I get the SMTP prompt. And now: louislaptop:/usr/local/etc/stunnel # telnet localhost 465 Trying 127.0.0.1...

Trouble between linux client and windows server
by Louis Young 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hi guys I'm trying to use stunnel between a windows server and a linux client. On the windows server: [VNC] accept = 5901 connect = 5900 and on the linux client: ; VNC server on 192.168.100.57 accept = 5901 connect = 192.168.100.65:5901 But, alas: Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused Trying ::1... telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused It's almost as if stunnel isn't listening on that port on the linux client. Any ideas? -- Regards Louis Young Systems Administrator Kwikpay SA (Pty) Ltd

Solaris 9_x86 does not use __MAKECONTEXT_V2_SOURCE, see /usr/include/ucontext.h: *** Solaris 9: #if defined(__MAKECONTEXT_V2_SOURCE) && defined(__sparc) #ifdef __PRAGMA_REDEFINE_EXTNAME #pragma redefine_extname makecontext __makecontext_v2 #else #define makecontext __makecontext_v2 #endif #endif *** Solaris 10: #ifdef __sparc #ifdef __PRAGMA_REDEFINE_EXTNAME #pragma redefine_extname makecontext __makecontext_v2 #else #define makecontext __makecontext_v2 #endif In libc.so.1, __makecontext_v2 is the "new" function and makecontext the "old" one (binary compatible to Solaris 8 and earlier). For Solaris x86, there is only one function makecontext in all versions. Thus the behavior might not have been changed. A small test program in Solaris 9_x86 (have no earlier versions) indicated the "new" behavior.
