[stunnel-users] Going from 3.x command line to 4.x .conf file

I'm having a problem connecting with sourcehost using stunnel w/ 
configuration files.  The command line version from 3.x works.

Here's the command line for 3.x

    ./stunnel -c -p client.pem -d localhost:2401 -r
    repository.sourcehosting.net:2402 -P none -f -v 3 -A cacert.pem

and the conf file from 4.x

    # Some debugging stuff
    debug = 7
    output = stunnel.log
     
    # Use it for client mode
    client = yes
    foreground = yes
     
    verify = 3
     
    key = client.pem
    cert = cacert.pem
     
    # Service-level configuration
     
    [cvs]
    accept = 2401

connect = repository.sourcehosting.net:2402
When I run the older version it starts:

    ./stunnel -c -p client.pem -d localhost:2401 -r
    repository.sourcehosting.net:2402 -P none -f -v 3 -A cacert.pem

But when I run the newer version (with .conf) I get:

I'm using the same cacert.pem and client.pem for both, as well as the 
same passphrase.
