You need to run poweshell as an elevated session and you may need to change a security policy to be able to install the service. Can't remember exactly what that command is, I'm on my phone.

FWIW, I don't recall needing to do that, I think I ran a. Installer and that was it. I might have also set a local user in the service login.

Apparently to get stunnel to work, I have to install it as a service in Windows. In order to do this, I fire up a powershell, change directories to the stunnel\bin, and run the command: .\stunnel -install

This results in the error message: OpenSCManager: error 5: Access is denied Not sure what to do, as I am running as an administrator Any help would be appreciated Thanks -William Wood _______________________________________________ stunnel-users mailing list -- stunnel-users@stunnel.org To unsubscribe send an email to stunnel-users-leave@stunnel.org
