Hello all,
Wonder if anybody could advise. I have a client tn3270 application running on Solaris 2.8. Currently, it is using clear text to communicate with tn3270 server. Now, I need to run tn3270 with SSL.
If I install stunnel in the Solaris 2.8 box to act as a wrapper.
- Do I run the stunnel as a client only ?
Is the command: stunnel -c -d <port1> -r <tn3270server>:<port2>
a. Is port1 the original port where client tn3270 application sends to server ?
b. Is port2 the same as port1 ?
c. Alternatively, am I supposed to change the client tn3270 application to direct the data to a new port X, then port1 = X, while port2 is the port where the server is listening on.
Thank you in advance.
Best to do would be to invest a couple of minutes to study the manpage:

and the examples:
