In inetd mode, you get a new Stunnel process for every connection. Initialization must occur in *each* new process - they don't share any state, including any session ids.

In daemon mode, there's one stunnel process (threaded) which can share state between threads, so it is much better.

Ah I see, so running a single process (w/ pthreads) under runit I get the same effect as daemon mode. Correct? -Joe Name: Joseph A. Williams Email: joe@joetify.com Blog: http://www.joeandmotorboat.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/williamsjoe
