[stunnel-users] Stunnel Connectivity Issue

Tue Jun 13 17:49:16 CEST 2017

Hi, Dheeraj,

Are you testing the connection with Telnet? Or are you testing with the application. What I noticed in testing the connection is that once the command is completed, the connection is closed.

However, when I test from my application, its only closed once all transactions in that session are completed, and will show how much data was passed on (following from my logs at the end of a non-telnet test session.

HI Guys,

below is the config which i have configured with TLSv1.2, but still connection establishing only for while when i telnet telnet 127.0.0.1 9233. and just after connection closed.

[TCP]
client=yes
cert = BBG_cert.pem
key = BBG_key.pem
verifyChain = yes
CAfile = BBG_CACerts.pem
connect = 69.191.198.34:8228<http://69.191.198.34:8228>
accept  = 127.0.0.1:9233<http://127.0.0.1:9233>
sslVersion = TLSv1.2

below the logs:

Could you please let us know what parameters we are missing here due to which connection is not establishing with remote server.

Although, stunnel logs indicating that configuration successful, but in logs no where is mentioned about the connection is it connected or not,

Hello Dheeraj,

You should set the verifyChain option in order to verify the certificate stored in the file specified with CAfile:
verifyChain = yes

Then you can test your connection:
telnet 127.0.0.1 9233
the stunnel logs will show information about the connection attempt.

Regards,
Małgorzata
