Re: [stunnel-users] When X-FORWARDED-FOR for Stunnel ?

Ok thanks.

Do you think to create more later (when you will be less busy) this feature with a better code ?

Why you don't implement X-FORWARDED-FOR into stunnel ?

I didn't implement this feature yet, because:

1. It's hard to do it right.
2. I'm the breadwinner for my family. I'm too busy with things I do

for a living.

...

The patch have only 219 lines, could you help me please to addapt it to the version 4.41 and/or add this feature into Stunnel please ?

I'm not going to apply this patch, because:

1. It does not support chains of proxies: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/X-Forwarded-For#Format
2. It does not support HTTP persistent connections (only modifies the

first request of each connection):

https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection 3. The code is ugly. 4. It does not have a GPL-compatible, non-copyleft license.

Thanks so much ...

You're welcome.
