stunnel 4.26 MS SQL connetion - works on Vista, not on XP
Greetings, I was wondering if anyone's come across anything like this. I want to encrypt connections for MS SQL Server 2008 Express from a Windows XP client to a Windows 2003 Server. Following these instructions: http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677 I was able to configure encrypted connections by pointing SQL Server Management Studio to 127.0.0.1 on _either_ XP or Vista and then that gets tunneled over to the Windows 2003 Server running SQL Server 2008 Express. I can browse the database tables, etc. Now the problem. I have users that make use of a thin client that connects directly to the SQL Server. It has one config file that I've pointed to 127.0.0.1. When I run this thin client on Vista, it works great, however, when running it on XP, stunnel tries to connect, but then gives up after several attempts. Here's what I see in the server log before connecting: 2009.03.23 12:26:59 LOG7[284564:274684]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2009.03.23 12:26:59 LOG7[284564:274684]: PRNG seeded

settings of the thin client to work under ealier versions of Windows, this didn't help - regenerated certificates, no good - tried connecting without certificates, still no good I still haven't tried earlier versions of stunnel, but I figured I'd just check and see if may anyone's run across something like this before. From what I can tell, the combination of XP, the thin client and stunnel does not work. The thin client does work on XP when I do not use stunnel, but I need to have the connection encrypted. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/stunnel-4.26-MS-SQL-connetion---works-on-Vista%2C-not-...

It's for Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers library, used for /etc/hosts.{deny,allow} support. The library is called libwrap0-dev in Debian, other OS's might have a different (but probably similar) name.
