Doris,

Stunnel does not change the setup of your web server.  If you don't want http://xxx to work, you'll have to change the web server's configuration.  It should make it either stop listening on external interfaces (by binding it to 127.0.0.1), or let /the web server/ redirect all inbound traffic (traffic not originated by 127.0.0.1) to HTTPS.

HTH,

Ludolf
