Hi!

I have some trouble using STUNNEL on WIN98 to secure connections to HFS (Http File Server), and hope, somebody can help me.

I can connect to HFS with the Browser (Firefox 2.0.0.3, IE 6.0, on the same machine HFS is running, an other one in LAN and a third via internet) and download files, bat every downloaded File is corrupt.

In most cases, transfer seems to terminate normally, but the downloaded file ist to short, sometimes there is popup, that tells me, that the file could not be read, because the connection is broken.

The log file shows the following: ********************************* stunnel 4.20 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8d 28 Sep 2006 Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv4 No limit detected for the number of clients https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63819 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1287 Connection closed: 1632 bytes sent to SSL, 476 bytes sent to socket https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63821 https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63823 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1290 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1291 Connection closed: 919 bytes sent to SSL, 349 bytes sent to socket Connection closed: 720 bytes sent to SSL, 402 bytes sent to socket https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63825 https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63827 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1294 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1295 Connection closed: 715 bytes sent to SSL, 402 bytes sent to socket Connection closed: 277 bytes sent to SSL, 402 bytes sent to socket https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63829 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1297 Connection closed: 269 bytes sent to SSL, 402 bytes sent to socket https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63831 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1299 Connection closed: 920 bytes sent to SSL, 349 bytes sent to socket https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63833 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1301 https accepted connection from 85.127.28.154:63835 https connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:1303 Connection closed: 920 bytes sent to SSL, 349 bytes sent to socket readsocket: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (10054) Connection reset: 1289938 bytes sent to SSL, 481 bytes sent to socket *************************

My STUNNEL.CONF looks like this: ******************************** ; File with certificate and private key cert = stunnel.pem key = stunnel.pem

; Log (1= minimal, 5=recommended, 7=all) and log file) ; Preceed with a ";" to disable logging debug = 5 output = stunnel.log

; Some performance tuning socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1

; Data compression algorithm: zlib or rle compression = zlib

; SSL bug options / NO SSL:v2 (SSLv3 and TLSv1 is enabled) options = ALL options = NO_SSLv2

; Service-level configuration ; Stunnel listens to port 443 (HTTPS) to any IP ; and connects to port 44300 (HFS) on localhost

[https] accept = 0.0.0.0:443 connect = 127.0.0.1:44300 TIMEOUTclose = 0 *************************************

Your help will be appreciated.
