Hi, I am tasked to make stunnel work in our organization but a newbie I seem not to be able to follow the instructions for installation. can you help me out? plan to install this on our servers that will cater to oracle / mssql in transit data encryption. how do I know if im installing on a client or a server? will this work standalone (server will act as server and client too). how will this be configured.

External PSK and TLS 1.3
by mike ads 18 Sep '24

18 Sep '24

Hello, I'm looking for a solution to connect to a server using TLS 1.3 and an external PSK. Does stunnel support this? I see that there are configuration options to set TLS 1.3, and configuration options to specify a PSK; if those were used together, would that result in TLS 1.3 with the PSK? If so, how would I choose between ephemeral vs non-ephemeral DH? This doesn't seem to be an option. Ephemeral is an important choice for forward secrecy. Would it default to ephemeral? Thank you.

stunnel overhead: Tunneling over stunnel - How does this affect MTU?
by Marek Küthe 16 Sep '24

16 Sep '24

Hello, I am tunneling packets via stunnel using OpenVPN. I would now like to have an MTU in my tunnel where no fragmentation occurs. Hence my question: What overhead does stunnel introduce? Is the plaintext with a length one-to-one translated into the ciphertext? How large is the stunnel / TLS header? I look forward to any answer!

I would prefer to use stunnel, which I used for 10 or 20 years until recently, but this proxy is supposed to work for the new problem: SIMON ROB'S EMAIL-OAUTH2-PROXY Go to https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy/releases Download emailproxy-YYYY-MM-DD_pyinstaller-Windows.zip from the most recent release. Unzip the emailproxy-YYYY-MM-DD_pyinstaller-Windows.zip file, extracting the contents to the desired location; avoid the protected system folders such as "Program Files", "Program Files (x86)", etc. Right-click each extracted file, go to Properties, and enable "Unblock"..... Write me at traveler(a)mm.st if you want me to post the rest of the instructions. Maybe experienced people don't need them. I havent' tried to install either this or stunnel yet.
