Dear Users,

I have released version 5.08 of stunnel.

The ChangeLog entry:

Version 5.08, 2014.12.09, urgency: MEDIUM:
* New features
  - Added SOCKS4/SOCKS4a protocol support.
  - Added SOCKS5 protocol support.
  - Added SOCKS RESOLVE [F0] TOR extension support.
  - Updated automake to version 1.14.1.
  - OpenSSL directory searching is now relative to the sysroot.
* Bugfixes
  - Fixed improper hangup condition handling.
  - Fixed missing -pic linker option.  This is required for
    Android 5.0 and improves security.

To setup SOCKS4 VPN configure the following client service:
    [socks_client]
    client = yes
    accept = 127.0.0.1:1080
    connect = vpn_server:9080
    verify = 4
    CAfile = stunnel.pem

The corresponding configuration on the vpn_server host:
    [socks_server]
    protocol = socks
    accept = 9080
    cert = stunnel.pem
    key = stunnel.key

SOCKS-enabled clients (e.g. web browsers) can now use stunnel client
for a VPN service.  Encrypted DNS resolver is supported with SOCKS4a,
SOCKS5, and SOCKS RESOLVE [F0] TOR extension.
