[stunnel-users] Configure Error

[Josealf.rm]

I backported the redhat/centos 6.x OpenSSL rpm package to 5.x. It is running fine on centos 5 32bits. I can provide you the source rpm and you can recompile on your 64bit Os.

The one you choose when compiling Stunnel will want to be the newer one you compiled. IMHO, I would migrate your RHEL5 to RHEL6 or RHEL7, but that may be considerably more difficult than just compiling OpenSSL and Stunnel.

So if we want version  TLS1.1+ then we need to recompile the STUNNEL src with an updated version of openssl we are running on our server.  Something higher than 0.9.8.   Is that right ?  Is it possible to find a version that was already compiled with a higher version of openssl ?
