[stunnel-users] Stunnel v4.25 support for IPv6

Thanks for the response. I got answer to my queries. 

When you say "IPv6-enabled stunnel", do you mean that we need to provide
parameter "IPV6=on", during compile time. Is there any other parameter
that we need to provide? 

Is the support for IPv6 not turned on by default?

Is there any other configuration required for OpenSSL?

Thanks, Gaurav

IPv6-enabled stunnel gracefully handles both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
You
can accept connections on IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and your can connect
IPv4
and IPv6 addresses without any special precautions.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "exclusive support for
IPv6"... 
If you only accept connections on an IPv6 address I guess you could say
you
"exclusively" support it.
