Hi,
To get around a bug of stunnel present in the package of Ubuntu 11.10 (that has been corrected in v4.38),
I've compiled from sources (v4.53).
It went well, but I did notice a change in the processes :
from compiled sources, I can see only on process per conf file

while on the ubuntu version, I've multiple process per conf file.

I'm using the exact same version of conf file for both setup...
any idea why this change ?
is one better than another ?
