[stunnel-users] question about usage of configfile

[Revelancefound at aol.com]

To put it blatantly, I am trying to make stunnel 4.12 create a 2 way 
encrypted channel from my home computer as a client to an SSL supporting proxy (HTTP). 
Also, I am using localhost (127.0.0.1) as a connect address for proxy 
settings in such programs as Internet Explorer or a download manager. A sample of my 
stunnel.conf is bellow:
 
client = yes
verify = 0
[https]
accept  = 127.0.0.1:8080
connect =  ssl.supporting.httpproxy.with.openport:80
TIMEOUTclose = 0
 
; vim:ft=dosini
 
 
My computer currently has the following installed:
stunnel-4.12
Opensslv0.9.8 (Win32OpenSSL-v0.9.8.exe)
ActivePerl-5.8.7.813-MSWin32-x86-148120.msi
Windows XP Home Edition (SP2)
 
 
Whenever I try to connect to 127.0.0.1:8080 the stunnel log reports
 
2005.09.23 20:57:33 LOG5[6012:5668]: stunnel 4.12 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu 
WIN32+IPv6 with OpenSSL 0.9.8 05 Jul 2005

2005.09.23 21:29:23 LOG3[6012:3408]: Failed to initialize remote connection
2005.09.23 21:29:23 LOG5[6012:6140]: https connected from 127.0.0.1:3332
And so on into infinity 
 
 
 
 
Am I trying to do the impossible, or are all those 8196 bit RSA keys 
(certified through x508) that I generated going to waste?
