Stunnel Configure Warning
by G J Piper 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

I was upgrading my Stunnel 4.11 to 4.13 when I saw this in the config check and decided to post it to see if I should continue installing... the config told me (obvoiously) to post this message... heh: > checking ucontext.h usability... no > checking ucontext.h presence... yes > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: present but cannot be compiled > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: see the Autoconf documentation > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled" > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result > configure: WARNING: ucontext.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence > configure: WARNING: ## ---------------------------------- ## > configure: WARNING: ## Report this to the stunnel lists. ## > configure: WARNING: ## ---------------------------------- ## > checking for ucontext.h... yes > checking pthread.h usability... yes > checking pthread.h presence... yes > checking for pthread.h... yes What can be done? ~ Greg

stunnel 4.13 released
by Michal Trojnara 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

Version 4.13, 2005.10.21, urgency: MEDIUM: * DLLs for OpenSSL 0.9.7i included because protection faults were reported in 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a. * New features - Libwrap code is executed as a separate process (no more delays due to a global and potentially long critical section). * Bugfixes - Problem with zombies in UCONTEXT threading fixed. - Workaround for non-standard makecontext() uc_stack.ss_sp parameter semantics on SGI IRIX. - Protection fault in signals handling on IRIX fixed. - Problem finding pthread library on AIX fixed. - size_t printf() fixed in stack_info() (the previous fix didn't work). - socklen_t is used instead of int where required. Homepage: http://stunnel.mirt.net/ sha1sum for stunnel-4.13.tar.gz: 4cb8e162e6cd4b4a966d601d1c890df2c2ee198f Best regards, Mike

smtp and tls
by Andy Cravens 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

Does stunnel support using TLS with SMTP? My SMTP server requires TLS but my client does not support it. Unfortunately, my SMTP server does not support SMTP over SSL so my only choice is to use TLS. I've seen some old threads concerning a patch to stunnel 3.x to do TLS but I read it was not a good solution. Does anybody have any information or opinions on this?

ECC-enabled version of Stunnel
by Dennis Laupichler 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

Hello, I want to use a ECC-certificate for stunnel.pem, but it doesn't work. Can anybody help me, what I have to do, to use Elliptique Curve cryptography certificates in Stunnel? Is it still possible or not? The ECC-Ciphers "ECDH-ECDSA-AES256-SHA" from openssl 0.9.8 works, but when I loaded the certificate into stunnel, there was follow messages in the log-file: stunnel.log in Server ################## error stack: 140B3009 : error:140B3009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file:PEM lib SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file: 607907F: error:0607907F:digital envelope routines:EVP_PKEY_get1_RSA:expecting an rsa key Server is down ################## Thanks, Dennis

stunnel silently dies
by Uffe Vedenbrant 18 Oct '05

18 Oct '05

Hi! After using stunnel on several freebsd boxes i decided to try it out on my mailserver.. Unfortunately it silently died after first connection.. ( and with exitcode=0 ) debug = 7 Nothing more in the log than startup + a line about a incomming connection on port 9143.. ( where i put my incomming imap ) Nothing in any log on the box.. Ok.. It might be my openssl freebsd version or stunnel version so i started to upgrade everything.. Freebsd 4.4 -> 4.11 stunnel 4.05 -> 4.11 etc.. Well did it work.. Nop..;-) Finally i found out after tryin ktrace that the problem was that the tcpwrapper code killed me.. That's ok but there where no logging at all that the tcpwrapper silently decided that i was comming from a blocked host.. It's up now without tcpwrapper enabled and works perfect..;-) Is there any possibility to have stunnel to say something about tcpwrapper problems..;-) And not just die..;-) Regards /Uffe

client and server together?
by Sholund, Mark D, GVSOL 18 Oct '05

18 Oct '05

I have a situation in which I have a client system, a middle-tier application server, and a backend database. The middle-tier takes info from the client and sends requests to the database, in other words the middle-tier has to act as both a client and a server in different parts of a transaction. Is it necessary that I run two instances of stunnel, one with an stunnel-client.conf wherein client=yes and another instance with stunnel-server.conf wherein client=no or is it possible to configure a single stunnel to do this? I would guess it would be kind of like having "client=yes|no" at the service level; this is not an option as far as I can see from the man page for 4.12 but I figured I could at least ask.

Windows XP, 2000 Crash on VNC over stunnel
by prez2＠o2.pl 15 Oct '05

15 Oct '05

Hello I've got problem with vnc over stunnel, stunnel on client computer crashes all the time. I did all configuration according to information at http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677. Stunnel v 4.12, VNC version 4.1.1, all firewalls off, all computers in the same LAN. Tried on Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2000, on both of them there was a crash. All necessery (at least I think so) information are here: http://users.vlo.ids.gda.pl/~piotr/client.txt http://users.vlo.ids.gda.pl/~piotr/server.txt http://users.vlo.ids.gda.pl/~piotr/windows.txt Thank you in advance

Should I generate certifcates again? Meantime, I did configure it on my Ubuntu 10 X box, and manage to connect with server, so I guess server configuration is ok. Thanks for help. Best regards.
