Hi Matt,
Load balancing is incompatible with delayed resolver. Remove "delay =
yes" from your configuration file.

Now what we're seeing is that almost every connection ends up on prod-zookeeper-5. Over and over and over again, our hosts pick the same system each time. We're running Stunnel 4.52:

Obviously we want the connections to be *roughly* random across the list of hosts... and if one of the hosts goes down, and the connection fails, we want the stunnel service to try again, and randomly pick a new host. It doesn't really seem to be doing that though.
