Stunnel License
by Bansal, Gaurav (Gaurav) 24 Sep '08

Hi, We are planning to use Stunnel to encrypt traffic between Apache mod_jk and AJP connector of JBoss Tomcat. It seems that Stunnel uses OpenSSL APIs. Since Stunnel is available under GPL license, the license terms prevents us from using Stunnel in our product since it exposes OpenSSL which is also available under GPL license. I would like to know if there is also a commercial license available for stunnel? I would appreciate if you can throw pointers on how to package Stunnel with a commercial product. Thank Gaurav

Re: [stunnel-users] Compiled Stunnel 4.25 with OpenSSL 0.9.8h
by Nelgraine 22 Sep '08

Thanks for your reply. I’ve found out that Solaris 10 machine has default OpenSSL 0.9.7d located in /usr/local/ssl/bin. Update OpenSSL 0.9.8h using this command: ../config -fPIC shared no-idea threads make depend make make test make install But unfortunately the gcc link to old openssl 0.9.7d. How to update the link in gcc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Compiled Stunnel 4.25 with OpenSSL 0.9.8h on Solaris 10
by Nelgraine 20 Sep '08

20 Sep '08

Ive read this article Compiling Stunnel 4.21 on Solaris 10 http://stunnel.mirt.net/pipermail/stunnel-users/2008-March/001895.html I've been also experiencing this kind of problem but I've Compiled Stunnel 4.25 with OpenSSL 0.9.8h on Solaris 10. Configure: # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stunnel-4.25 --with-ssl=/usr/local/openssl-0.9.8h configure: **************************************** success Make Error: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wpointer-arith -I/usr/local/openssl-0.9.8h/include -o stunnel file.o client.o log.o options.o protocol.o network.o resolver.o ssl.o ctx.o verify.o sthreads.o stunnel.o pty.o libwrap.o -lz -ldl -lsocket -lnsl -lpthread -L/usr/local/openssl-0.9.8h/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lwrap Undefined first referenced symbol in file BIO_set_flags protocol.o SSL_CTX_set_info_callback ctx.o ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to stunnel My Question is: 1. Should I need to upgrade OpenSSL 0.9.8h into OpenSSL 0.9.8i? 2. I have installed openssl 0.9.8h on Solaris 10 and created several ca certificates. - If I will upgrade OpenSSL 0.9.8h into OpenSSL 0.9.8i, should I also recreate ca certificates? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thomas, Of course, you get a clear-text port redirector if you connect two instances of stunnel running on the same machine, one acting as client, the other one as server. But again, I think this is oversized and not easier to set up than a simple TCP port redirector.

Bug in tools stunnel.init
by Kevin A. McGrail 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi Michael, I've upgraded to stunnel 4.25 and found a few small bugs in the init script. In stunnel.init.in, I'm pretty sure the DAEMON line should be DAEMON=@prefix@/bin/stunnel and not DAEMON=@prefix@/etc/stunnel Also, when the parent process is killed with stop, I see Sep 17 14:34:16 server stunnel: warning: can't get client address: Bad file descriptor because the child processes seem to stick around. I've modified the init script to kill the main process using the pid file and then using pidof to identify and kill the remaining child processes. Is this expected behavior? regards, KAM

Non-SSL Relay
by Thomas O'Hare 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hello I know the obvious and goes against what it was made for, but... Is there a way to use STunnel as a relay server w/o SSL? IOW, if you put STunnel in a number of installations but one or more PCs need a non-SSL server, can they use it? It would beat having to install "2" relay servers on each PC. -- Thanks, ~ Thomas O'Hare ~ Web, Wireless, Network, Database & Systems Software/Hardware Operations Manager | Virtual FoxPro User Group Tom(a)VFUG.Org | http://www.VFUG.Org/

STunnel as a Relay server
by Thomas O'Hare 16 Sep '08

I know this is against what STunnel was made for but... There are Stunnel installations on client PCs but they also need to use STunnel to also send to non-SSL entities -- since it is easier then installing 2 relay/proxy servers. Is there a way to make STunnel into a non-SSL relay server? -- Thanks, ~ Thomas O'Hare ~ Web, Wireless, Network, Database & Systems Software/Hardware Operations Manager | Virtual FoxPro User Group Tom(a)VFUG.Org | http://www.VFUG.Org/

What is the difference between "all" and "SSLv3" for sslVersion?
by Christopher Hunt 14 Sep '08

14 Sep '08

Hi there, I would like to understand the difference between specifying an sslVersion of "all" vs "SSLv3" when I see that the client is attempting SSLv3. I have a Java 1.5 ssl client connecting to an stunnel endpoint. If I specify an sslVersion of "all" in my stunnel configuration then the client is able to connect. When I see it connect, it appears to have connected as SSLv3 i.e.: 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2690846624]: https accepted FD=12 from 127.0.0.1:59812 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: https started 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: FD 12 in non-blocking mode 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: TCP_NODELAY option set on local socket 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: Waiting for a libwrap process 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: Acquired libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: Releasing libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: Released libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: https permitted by libwrap from 127.0.0.1:59812 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG5[98326:2952859648]: https accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:59812 2008.09.14 15:59:20 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: SSL state (accept): before/ accept initialization 2008.09.14 15:59:21 LOG7[98326:2952859648]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read client hello A etc. If I substitute "SSLv3" for the value of sslVersion then I get: 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2690846624]: https accepted FD=12 from 127.0.0.1:59795 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: https started 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: FD 12 in non-blocking mode 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: TCP_NODELAY option set on local socket 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: Waiting for a libwrap process 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: Acquired libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: Releasing libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: Released libwrap process #0 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: https permitted by libwrap from 127.0.0.1:59795 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG5[98297:2952859648]: https accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:59795 2008.09.14 15:56:26 LOG7[98297:2952859648]: SSL state (accept): before/ accept initialization 2008.09.14 15:56:27 LOG3[98297:2952859648]: SSL_accept: 1408F10B: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number I have also tried specifying "SSLv2" (client disconnected complaining that v2 was not supported) and "TLSv1" (yields the same error as "SSLv3".

Stunnel on Vista gets "readsocket: Connection reset by peer"

Hi, I'm trying to use stunnel 4.25 on Vista over the Microsoft Loopback Adapter, but I always get the following error shown next to ">>>" below.
