What do your stunnel configuration files look like? Other problem: mysql client may decide to use a local domain socket when connecting to localhost, thwarting your attempts to go via Stunnel. You might want to 'strace mysql ...' and look for the connect() lines. -- Brian Hatch Time flies like an Systems and arrow.

Re: [stunnel-users] rewrite Destination: when rewriting Host:

Here's one person explaining it, much better > than me: http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2006-03/0549.shtml Stunnel doesn't currently have the ability to scan and re-write the plaintext. For HTTP redirects it could possibly be implemented (re-write only the response before ^$, and redirects aren't chunked and don't have content lengths to work with, etc) but you'd still need enough HTTP logic to handle keepalives and such. It's not trivial and not likely. Another option would be to have something already HTTP aware doing the rewriting in between stunnel and subversion. A re-writing proxy. Another option would be to use mod_rewrite in apache to rewrite the urls. But the best way would be to just use SSL inside apache and drop stunnel entirely. -- Brian Hatch The best way to accelerate Systems and a Windows machine is at Security Engineer 9.8 meters per second http://www.ifokr.org/bri/ squared.

Hallo, I have found 2 Bugs. 1. In Version 4.21: No Taskbar Icon is displayed when the service starts. Although the taskbar ist set in config file (taskbar = yes). 2. In probably all Versions (I have testet 4.18, 4.20 and 4.21) If i started the service over Start -> Programm Files -> stunnel -> Service Start (stunnel -start) no log files are written. If i start the service over services.msc from Windows or "sc start stunnel" log files are written. The icon log displayed the following message in version 4.18 and 4.20 2007.11.09 09:41:03 LOG3[2396:2400]: stunnel.log: Broken pipe (32) 2007.11.09 09:41:03 LOG3[2396:2400]: Unable to open output file: stunnel.log Best Regards Jan

Hello list, what we want to do, is mounting a webdav share via https on a windows xp box. Therefore we tried to tunnel localhost:80 to server:443 The name of the test server is here bonifax.

Stunnel currently logs times in the format hh:mm:ss. Is there a way to get a more exact time, such as UTC or down to the millisecond? Edward Blake

VNC, STUNNEL & HTTPTUNNEL ----- (((VNC)SSL)HTTP)
by sean bhola 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

I need to connect to my PC at work from home. The firewall at work has only ports 80 (http) and 443 (https) open, I also think there is a proxy. I was wondering which scenario would work. 1: To encapsulate vnc traffic within ssl using stunnel and pass it though port 443, OR 2: To encapsulate vnc traffic within ssl using stunnel, then encapsulate that within http using httptunnel and pass through port 80 OR 3: To encapsulate vnc traffic within http, then encapsulate that within ssl using stunnel and pass through port 443 I read this article http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677 but still had the concerns above. Help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Sean

running SWAT through stunnel and uid/gid question
by Wayne Sherman 24 Feb '08

24 Feb '08

(using STunnel 4.21 on gentoo) I can successfully run the samba SWAT tool through stunnel with these settings: [swat] exec = /usr/sbin/swat execargs = swat accept = 901 But, I have discovered that in order to successfully log-in to swat, I have to comment these lines in the global section of stunnel.conf: #setuid = stunnel #setgid = stunnel Is there a way to specify the UID/GID per service (like the xinetd service level option "user") instead of globally? Thanks, Wayne

Web based CRL file
by Edouard Dessioux 18 Feb '08

18 Feb '08

Hi, I have several questions about the CRL file : - is the file reloaded before each connection or is it first loaded at the stunnel startup ? - do you have any idea of how to use a web-based CRL file ?
