question about usage of configfile
by Revelancefound＠aol.com 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

To put it blatantly, I am trying to make stunnel 4.12 create a 2 way encrypted channel from my home computer as a client to an SSL supporting proxy (HTTP). Also, I am using localhost (127.0.0.1) as a connect address for proxy settings in such programs as Internet Explorer or a download manager. A sample of my stunnel.conf is bellow: client = yes verify = 0 [https] accept = 127.0.0.1:8080 connect = ssl.supporting.httpproxy.with.openport:80 TIMEOUTclose = 0 ; vim:ft=dosini My computer currently has the following installed: stunnel-4.12 Opensslv0.9.8 (Win32OpenSSL-v0.9.8.exe) ActivePerl-5.8.7.813-MSWin32-x86-148120.msi Windows XP Home Edition (SP2) Whenever I try to connect to 127.0.0.1:8080 the stunnel log reports 2005.09.23 20:57:33 LOG5[6012:5668]: stunnel 4.12 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu WIN32+IPv6 with OpenSSL 0.9.8 05 Jul 2005 2005.09.23 20:57:33 LOG5[6012:4600]: No limit detected for the number of clients 2005.09.23 20:57:38 LOG5[6012:1560]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3226 2005.09.23 20:59:10 LOG5[6012:5396]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3232 2005.09.23 21:04:10 LOG5[6012:4576]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3249 2005.09.23 21:09:10 LOG5[6012:4652]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3268 2005.09.23 21:14:10 LOG5[6012:5396]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3283 2005.09.23 21:19:12 LOG5[6012:1556]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3296 2005.09.23 21:24:13 LOG5[6012:4072]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3309 2005.09.23 21:29:23 LOG3[6012:3408]: Failed to initialize remote connection 2005.09.23 21:29:23 LOG5[6012:6140]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3332 And so on into infinity Am I trying to do the impossible, or are all those 8196 bit RSA keys (certified through x508) that I generated going to waste?

minor annoyance
by Alaric Dailey 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

I have been using stunnel for a while with great success, only one minor issue, I am using stunnel for my http server and it ALWAYS logs traffic as coming from the stunnel IP rather than the IP address it is really coming from, is there a way around this?

by Peter Bieringer 24 Sep '05

Hi, 4.0.6 claim about "The procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in the dynamic link library WS2_32.DLL" 4.0.7 and above crashes "...has generated errors". Windows 2000 is IPv6 enabled by <http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/tpipv6.asp> with information from: <http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/tpipv6/faq.asp> Is it planned to fix this issue? BTW: IPv6 enabled 4.0.11 works fine on Linux !

Help Installing Stunnel After Reformat Drive
by mxrtmxd72＠att.net 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

I have been using Stunnel with Agent versioin 3. My system recently crashed and I had to re-format the hard drive, reinstall Windows XP, and reinstall my apps. I have followed the directions at wurd.com/cl_ssl_stunnel.php#Windows. Fortunately, I had backups of the required files. I placed libeay32.dll, libssl32.dll, stunnel-4.10.exe, and stunnel.conf in C:\Stunnel. I placed a shortcut on the desktop which points to C:\Batch\runagent.bat. C:\Batch\runagent.bat consists of the following line: c:\batch\runagent.cmd c:\batch\runagent.cmd consists of the following lines: net start stunnel "C:\Program Files\Agent\agent.exe" net stop stunnel There is also a desktop shortcut which points to C:\Stunnel\stunnel-4.10.exe. When I place a pause command following the net start stunnel line in runagent.cmd a message appears: The service name is invalid. The WURD document seems to imply that it is not necessary to run stunnel-410.exe -install unless you want Stunnel to run all the time. Am I missing something? I don't remember exactly how I made this work when I first installed it before my system crashed. Any assistance would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks. Mort Middleman Print. Move to folder:

RE: [stunnel-users] Access to a daemon that has SSL abilities
by Amiram Oren 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

10x for the quick reply Alaric! Just want to see if I fully understand your note.. You set the stunnel daemon (/application) on a certain client machine. (let's say you have an IMAP client on it) Then, you configure your Argosoft server, which is set on another machine, to listen to SSL communication (i.e. IMAPS). Is this correct? Cheers, Oren. -----Original Message----- From: Alaric Dailey [mailto:alaricd@pengdows.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 7:44 PM To: Amiram Oren; stunnel-users(a)mirt.net Subject: Re: [stunnel-users] Access to a daemon that has SSL abilities Amiram Oren wrote: > Hi. > > Can I use stunnel only on a client side, in case on the other side, > the server already supports SSL? > > Will this work for SPOP3 and SMTP\S? > > 10X! > > Oren Amiram > >ilman/listinfo/stunnel-users > > I use it on my Argosoft email server to support IMAP, pop3 and HTTP with SSL onWindows 2003 yet :) - ______________________________________________________________________ This email message has been scanned by PineApp Mail-Secure and has been found clean.
