The certificates setup has been clarified in this list before. For me, the easiest way is to put individual CA (Certificate Authority) certificates (root and intermediate) in a directory, point stunnel to it, and run c_rehash to create the links...ah, but your're on windows. That creates a small problem, because most likely you won't have the support files handy (openssl.exe, c_rehash.pl, perl). So it's probably easier for you create a bundle text file with all required CA certificates in PEM format and point stunnel to it with the CAfile directive. You can find examples in the web.

Jose

Jose,
Thanks for your recommendation. I set verify = 0 and the connection started
to work. Must be a certificate issue.
Based on the documentation I didn't define the value because it says
verify = level
verify peer certificate
level 1 - verify peer certificate if present
level 2 - verify peer certificate
level 3 - verify peer with locally installed certificate
default - no verify
Thanks again.
Dan

Daniel,
If you have an https web server, do you really need stunnel to connect to
it? Most likely you don't.
If you want to do GETs and POSTs you can do it with curl. You don't need
stunnel in the middle.
If your stunnel is listening in port 3600 in client mode it expects a clear
text connection, not an SSL one. That is, you should do
http://localhost:3600/whatever, not https://localhost:3600/what ever. Try
with verify=0 in the stunnel.conf to see if you get a connection.
Regards,
Jose
