Hi,
I am attempting to run stunnel on Windows XP Pro but it is crashing as soon
as anything connects to it. I am using it to create a secure TLS tunnel in
front of an SMTP mail server and from what I read I should be able to do
this and stunnel will handle the STARTLS commands.
I downloaded the following windows binary:
562589 Mar 11 13:02:35 2006 stunnel-4.15-installer.exe
I made minimal changes to stunnel.conf:
1) added the line "protocol = smtp"
2) uncommented the debug lines (still crashes if I leave these lines
alone)
I then start stunnel, either as a service or from cmd line - same thing
happens
>From a command prompt I then "telnet localhost 465" and send "EHLO
mydomain.com hi"
Stunnel responds with "250-EHLO mydomain.com hi Welcome". I am also running
hMailServer on the same machine listening on port 25. It looks like stunnel
is forwarded the initial EHLO to hMailServer, then hMailServer responds
correctly and stunnel forwards that response back to me. Then stunnel
crashes immediatly.
Following is the log:

I tried building the source and debugging it but I only found some batch
files refering to the MS embedded compiler. Why would I want to compile
this for an embedded or mobile device? That is what that compiler is for.
What makefile or compiler should I be using on windows if I wish to build
stunnel on windows? Which I would rather not have to do, I would like to
just use the binary but it is crashing before I ever get a chance to test
it.
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
thanks,
-Kevin
