Hi.

According to the manpage for the output=<file> configuration directive, if this is set then it should replace syslog facility logging.

However, stunnel 4.45 (and ealier version) on linux send debugging information to both syslog and a logfile when output is specified.

The following patch makes stunnel behave according to the manpage "append log messages to a file instead of using syslog":
