Hello Michal,

Indeed, I'm using

/configure --build="x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu" \
         --prefix=${STUNNEL_DIR} \
         --mandir="${STUNNEL_DIR}/man" \
         --docdir="${STUNNEL_DIR}/doc" \
         --enable-ipv6   \
         --disable-libwrap \
         --disable-fips \
         --with-threads=fork \
         --with-ssl=${OPENSSL_DIR} \
         --enable-shared \
         --disable-static

As far as concerns the threading model, several linux distributions use 
the fork model. Also

http://devblog.bu.mp/post/40786230183/introducing-stud

seems to conclude the same way. Actually, I'am not really sure about the 
best threading model under RH Linux. Maybe, can you give some advices.
