Stunnel in Client / Server configuration
by Michael Curran 04 Mar '12

04 Mar '12

Hello, I have 2 servers in different locations across the country. I am using them as a paired tunnel that both act as server and client Server A has this configuration (cert definitions left out on purpose, but exist and are valid) ; Protocol version (all, SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1) sslVersion = all ; Some security enhancements for UNIX systems - comment them out on Win32 chroot = /var/lib/stunnel4 setuid = stunnel4 setgid = stunnel4 ; PID is created inside chroot jail pid = /stunnel.pid ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ;compression = rle TIMEOUTclose=0 ; 128-bit or highter only ciphers = HIGH:MEDIUM ; Workaround for Eudora bug options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS options = NO_SSLv2 ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = local7.info ;warning [Tunnel from Server B] accept = 1.2.3.4:443 connect = 127.0.0.1:8082 [Tunnel to Server B] accept = 5.6.7.8:3132 connect = 9.10.11.12:4000 client = yes Server B (cert definitions left out on purpose, but exist and are valid) ; Protocol version (all, SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1) sslVersion = all ; Some security enhancements for UNIX systems - comment them out on Win32 chroot = /var/lib/stunnel4 setuid = stunnel4 setgid = stunnel4 ; PID is created inside chroot jail pid = /stunnel.pid ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ;compression = rle TIMEOUTclose=0 ; 128-bit or highter only ciphers = HIGH:MEDIUM ; Workaround for Eudora bug options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS options = NO_SSLv2 ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = local7.debug ;warning [Tunnel to Server A] accept = 10.1.2.3:9443 connect = 1.2.3.4:443 client = yes [Tunnel from Server A] accept = 9.10.11.12:4000 connect = 10.4.5.6:3132 Communication through Server A (client) to Server B (server) works as expected Communication through Server B (client) back to Server A (server) recieves this error curl: (35) error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol (this is all the further it gets, the client says hello and the server responds with this) If I skip the local stunnel config and pass the traffic publicly through to Server A (running in client mode), from Server B, I get the expected http response I setup to test the tunnel. Im just assuming that if I am passing from Stunnel from one system to stunnel on another, one of them should be client and the other should be server. This works well on our old configurations and as far as I can see from a stunnel and network route perspective all rules are identical. Why would it work from Server B to Server A on the response if I go directly to Server A, but fail locally? The configuration looks correct, what else could I check?

Multiple Config Files
by Scott McKeown 02 Mar '12

02 Mar '12

Hi All, I'm new to the STunnel system but I'm loving what I have seen so far. However, I was wondering if its possible to have a setup something along the lines of the following: general.cfg - containing my general server system details http.cfg - containing the details of my HTTP server pop3.cfg - containing the details of my pop3 server etc. etc. but linking them all from one file so that if I want to remove the pop3 service I can just remove the pop3.cfg file and one line from the base file. I hope that someone understands what I'm getting at but if you need any more info please just let me know. Yours, Scott

linux default installation
by John A. Wallace 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

Hello. I am comparing a default installation of "stunnel.conf" in Linux with that in Windows, and I found some differences that I have a couple questions about. The Windows installation installed in client mode by default, but the one for Linux in server mode. I made a backup copy of the default files for both. For now I want to run stunnel in Linux in client mode, so I am making some changes to it. The installed default for these six parameters are as follows: Client=no Chroot=/var/lib/stunnel/ Setuid=stunnel Setgid=nogroup Pid=/var/run/stunnel.pid Cert=/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem Is it correct to change these settings for testing in client mode so that they match the current Windows' client mode configuration, like so: Client=yes #Chroot=/var/lib/stunnel/ #Setuid=stunnel #Setgid=nogroup #Pid=/var/run/stunnel.pid #Cert=/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem

stunnel log delayed
by John A. Wallace 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

Hello, I am running stunnel on Linux in client mode, and I have the following setting in "stunnel.conf": output=stunnel.log The log does not get written to periodically while the program is running but is delayed until after I have closed the program. It would be helpful to be able to look at it from time to time, especially while troubleshooting. Any way "to push" the data down into the file sooner? Thanks. John

Memory allocated in a different thread at network.c, line 63
by Philippe A. 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

Hello, I find the following error my syslog when stopping stunnel 4.52. The program seems to be unable to shutdown cleanly (ex: pid file doesn`t get removed). stunnel: INTERNAL ERROR: Memory allocated in a different thread at network.c, line 63 This is how I configured: LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/app/openssl/lib64 \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/app/stunnel \ --includedir=$PKG_HOME/openssl/include/ \ --with-ssl=$PKG_HOME/openssl/ \ --with-threads=fork \ --disable-libwrap Where PKG_HOME is a variable of my own. I had the same error with version 4.51. I do not see the error when running in foreground. I do not see the error either if I compile with threads instead of fork. In case this information is needed, this is how I configured openssl. ./config --prefix=/usr/local/app/openssl --libdir=lib64 shared zlib-dynamic no-ssl2 This is on RHEL 5.5 Regards.

SSLv3 on Win32 does not work
by Zdenek Valach (INBOX) 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

Hi I am using the latest version of stunnel in server mode (converting POP3S to POP3) I need to make service work in SSLv3 mode. In TLSv1 it works fine, when I add to stunnel.conf tag sslVersion = all, it still works fine, but when I use sslVersion = SSLv3 although config file is loaded properly, process EXE crashed during establishing the connection. It looks like some bug in actual version of stunnel. Does somebody experience same problem? Thank you very much in advance for any advice Thanks Zdenek ____________________________________________________________ Send any screenshot to your friends in seconds...

by Huzella Balázs 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi! I have downloaded the Android port of stunnel: http://mirrors.zerg.biz/stunnel/stunnel-4.52-android.zip I would like to use it on my Android tablet but I don't know how to start or use it. I have root access on the device. I placed the stunnel and openssl files into /data/stunnel/ directory. Both files have execute permission. Can anybody please provide some information on how to use this application? I haven't found any info on stunnel.org. Best Regards, Balázs Huzella

Multiple Domains for https
by Thomas Manson 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi, I want to setup the following architecture : stunnel ---> haproxy --> 2 webserver. I run severa virtual host on the 2 webservers, and a subset of them needs https. I can allocate several IP address for the host that run stunnel. How do I configure a single stunnel process to have a certificate per IP for the port https? I tryed to add several section like the following : [mansonthomas.com] cert = /etc/stunnel/sites/mansonthomas.com/mansonthomas.com.crt accept = 88.190.17.222:443 connect = 127.0.0.1:82 xforwardedfor = yes TIMEOUTclose = 0 So the question is : Is it possible ? do you have a sample configuration file to share for this use case? Thanks, Thomas.
