[stunnel-users] Re (2): Problems with stunnel and cox.net on Windows 7

[Vincent Deschenes]

From my experience, this relates to IPv4 vs IPv6.

127.0.0.1 is explicitly V4. While localhost can be V6.

Does the file exist?  If not, can stunnel create it?
Can you read it with an editor.  Can you write into it interactively?

> changing 127.0.0.1 to localhost seems to have fixed it!

What does "nslookup localhost" report?
