How can I configure Intermediate Certificate
by Carlos García Villate 04 Jan '11

04 Jan '11

Hi. Two months ago, we installed our SSL certificate with stunnel succesfully. That certificate was issued by Verisign. We did not experience any issues. A few weeks ago, we had to renew that certficate and after doing that, we started to get 'Invalid certificate' errors form our web site users. It seems that the new certificate issued by Verisign, has changed its hierarchy, and browsers like FF that do not have one of the necessary intermediate certificate registered fail. This is the new hierarchy: - VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority - G5 - VeriSign Class 3 Secure Server CA - G3 - www.b-kin.com It is the 'VeriSign Class 3 Secure Server CA - G3' certificate the one that most FF browsers do not have registered, and so the browsers reject the request with an 'Invalid certificate' message. To solve this issue, we are trying to incorporate the 'VeriSign Class 3 Secure Server CA - G3' certificate in the .pem file, where our www.b-kin.comcertificate is installed. We have tried to include the Verisign certificate first and then the other one; and the other way round, first our certificate and then the Verisign one, but without success. The Verisign certificate has been directly taken from the Verisign web site. The .pem file has following structure: Bag Attributes heading section ..... -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- ..... -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- Bag Attributes heading section -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- /*We have alternated to put here the www.b-kin.com or the Verisign certificate*/ ..... -----END CERTIFICATE----- Bag Attributes heading section -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- /*We have alternated to put here the www.b-kin.com or the Verisign certificate*/ ..... -----END CERTIFICATE----- We are running stunnel on CentOS with the following configuration: stunnel 4.32 on i686-pc-linux-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 01 Jul 2008 Threading:PTHREAD SSL:ENGINE,FIPS Sockets:POLL,IPv6 Auth:LIBWRAP Global options debug = daemon.notice pid = /usr/local/var/run/stunnel/stunnel.pid RNDbytes = 64 RNDfile = /dev/urandom RNDoverwrite = yes Service-level options cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem ciphers = FIPS session = 300 seconds stack = 65536 bytes sslVersion = TLSv1 TIMEOUTbusy = 300 seconds TIMEOUTclose = 60 seconds TIMEOUTconnect = 10 seconds TIMEOUTidle = 43200 seconds verify = none As we have seen in the documentation, it is possible to include a certificate hierarchy in a .pem file. What we do not know is the order nor the values to set int Bag Attributes heading section, for the Verisign certificate. Best regards, Carlos.

Dear Michal Trojnara, Some protocols (e.g. ssh,vpn...) must install software in SERVER side. I want to understand the fact below: If only the CLIENT side can install the special software.

Experimental stunnel-4.35b1
by Michal Trojnara 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

Dear Users, I have uploaded stunnel-4.35b1 to ftp://stunnel.mirt.net/stunnel/ for your testing. Please give it a shot and submit any problems to stunnel-users mailing list. This is the way you can not only help me improve production 4.35, but also make sure it's going to work on your platform! Please consider version 4.35b1 highly experimental and not ready for production. Specifically it is no supposed to be packaged for any OS distribution (e.g. *BSD ports). Best regards, Michal Trojnara

endpoints using different versions of stunnel
by nishith n 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

Hello all, We have a client who would like to send us data using stunnel 4.33 at their end of the connection. Can we establish connection from our end using stunnel 4.11 version. We are working on a sun machine. I know I can simply download the latest stunnel version but it has to go through an authorization process which probably will take more time than I have and hence this question. What could be the impacts to connectivity or otherwise with such a setup? Thanks for your replies, Nishith

Apparently lighttpd ssl support isn't so flash, I'm been attempting (I'm a newb) to use stunnel instead, are there any examples? I have a free startssl cert also (ssl.key / ssl.cert) What information do I need to setup a reliable connection?

How to encrypt the URL?
by cpu.lin 08 Dec '10

08 Dec '10

Dear friends, After reading mailing lists & Web & FAQ I couldn't find answers to these: stunnel.conf as follows: debug=7 client = yes [proxy] accept=1111 connect=62.215.5.69:8080 (Public SSL Proxy) protocol=connect protocolHost=stunnel.mirt.net:443 CLIENT(Browser+Special software)<->firewall<->(Internet)<->Public SSL Proxy<->WEB SERVER Public SSL Proxy as follows: http://tools.rosinstrument.com/raw_free_db.htm?t=2 Only the CLIENT side have stunnel. After running stunnel 4.34 (Windows binaries). Then. Browser http://localhost:1111/ But Sniffer can monitor the command-(CONNECT stunnel.mirt.net:443). The problem as follows: Only the CLIENT side can install special software. Special software including but not limited to stunnel. If the firewall can block many websites depend on Web IP & URL. How to pass through the firewall base on Public SSL Proxy? How to encrypt the URL-(stunnel.mirt.net:443)? What is the special software? If stunnel can solve this issue. How to configure? Best regards, cpu

stunnel and IE6 issue
by Bill Tindal 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi, I have stunnel running in front of HaProxy and everything is working fine however IE6 users cannot access our HTTPS pages and are instead shown a 'Page cannot be found'. They can access normal pages. Obviously there's something that stunnel doesn't like about IE6 (who doesn't) but I'm at a loss as to what changes to make to the stunnel conf. My conf for stunnel is below: ------------------------------------------------ sslVersion = all options = NO_SSLv2 fips = no setuid = root setgid = stunnel pid = /var/run/stunnel.pid socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 output = /var/log/stunnel.log [secure.domain.com] cert = /usr/local/openssl/certs/secure.domain.com.crt key = /usr/local/openssl/certs/secure.domain.com.key accept = X.X.X.X:443 connect = X.X.X.X:81 xforwardedfor = yes TIMEOUTclose = 0

How to define stunnel.conf so openvpn packet will go thru stunnel to as HTTP?
by UARE1234 29 Nov '10

29 Nov '10

Hi, >From what I read the examples in stunnel site it possible to wrap VPN's using Stunnel tool. Is it possible to do it for openvpn packets? I can configure thru the openvpn configurations that it packets will go thru port 80 and use TCP but the packets are not http pure. I need to wrap this packets using the stunnel tool. The purpose is to use openvpn over http. I will appreceate if someone can give me a solution for combinig Stunnel and openvpn if possible.
