Hmm, I guess I didn't send my previous followup to the list. After setting the log to output properly, I was able to troubleshoot my problem. The chroot directory was non-existent and therefore didn't allow my .pid to be created. I have created the directory and everything now works as it should.

Thanks for the help. Sorry for the trouble.

Hi There,

Moin,

I?m trying to encrypt a cherrypy web page that I?m serving up. The page itself works just fine on port 80, but I can?t seem to get stunnel to wrap it. I?m using 4.26 on CentOS 5.2. I?ve put in my stunnel.conf:

[...]

I?ve also tried commenting out the above mentioned .conf entry. I get the error that inetd mode needs a remote host or executable. I?m trying to run in daemon mode but I don?t think I?m doing it right.

Please help, or ask me questions, or tell me to elaborate or something.

can you call stunnel using the forground option and check the logfile?

start stunnel like this ... $ stunnel -D debug -f -o /var/log/stunnel.log ........
