Hi, I am getting a seg fault with stunnel on an installation of SLES10. This is the first SLES10 server I have set up after having set up many SLES9 servers (approx twelve) which all communicate through stunnel to a central syslog server. The version of stunnel we are using on SLES9 is: stunnel-4.05-20.1. The other machines are a mix of 32bit and 64bit Xeons. The seg fault seems to happen when syslog starts to talk through stunnel.

The program is a binary rpm install for 64bit SLES10 and is being run in standalone mode as a client connecting to a stunnel/syslog server running SLES9.

OS:- SLES10 x86_64

It waits at the last entry until syslog tries to connect. And that's where the useful logging stops, after that it's a seg fault.

Hope you can point me in the right direction...
