[stunnel-users] Validation of certificate

[Edouard Dessioux]

Thanks for your quick answer.
Just to be clear, this means that all my user certificates should be (or at least accessible) on the stunnel server. That may not be what we want.

For the sponsoring, you must know that Tibco.fr is not the same as Tibco.com, the software company. But I'll whisper the idea to my boss and see what it become. Does this means that the way I intended to do it made a sense for you ?

The elegant solution for this problem is to collect all the certificates
you want to grant access (CAfile or CApath) and then authenticate those
certificates only (with "verify=3").

Currently - no, but Tibco could sponsor such feature.
