The key error message is
bind: Address already in use (98)
You can' set both accept and connect to the same port.

See if you can configure your jdbc app on the server to listen on loopback interfase, line 127.0.0.1:2404, then set accept=yourserveraddress:2406 and connect=127.0.0.1:2404

It was typo sorry. The settings on the server are:

[test]
accept = 2406
connect = 2404

and on the client:

[jdbc]
client = yes
accept = 127.0.0.1:2404
connect = my_server_name:2406


I'm trying to start the service on the server and it's not working:


/etc/init.d/stunnel start
Starting stunnel (SSL tunnel) startproc:  exit status of parent of
/usr/sbin/stunnel: 1
  please see /var/log/rc.stunnel.log for details

      failed


Regards,
