All: Is there a setting in Stunnel to do FQDN checking? Level 3 checking requires a local copy of the Peer's certificate. When doing mutual authentication, I run into scalability issues when the devices Run into the thousands using Level3 validation. However, if Stunel was capable of doing FQDN checks, That would help while not requiring me to do level 3 checks (although that is probably better). Thanks Sekhar
