basic usage question

I'm trying to set up an ssl tunnel for VNC per the instructions at https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-sslvnc/index.html. I've not gotten very far into the steps. I tried: # stunnel -d 5905 -r 5900 -p /root/combined.pem [ ] Clients allowed=500 [.] stunnel 5.35 on x86_64-slackware-linux-gnu platform [.] Compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2h 3 May 2016 [.] Running with OpenSSL 1.0.2n 7 Dec 2017 [.] Update OpenSSL shared libraries or rebuild stunnel [.] Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,FIPS,OCSP,PSK,SNI Auth:LIBWRAP [ ] errno: (*__errno_location ()) [!] Invalid configuration file name "-d" [!] realpath: No such file or directory (2) [ ] Cron thread initialized I find nothing on the -d, -r or -p options in the manpage. This is my 1st posting to this list. I have very rudimentary skills with ssl, ssh, and certificates, mainly limited to getting certificates from a provider and installing for web and email; and creating public keys for ssh login using ssh-keygen. That's about it, so I'm pretty much a certified newbie. Help getting past the starting gate would be greatly appreciated. THX --Mark

Stunnel in server mode with certificate from the Windows Certificate Store
by merlin＠mp3merlin.net 06 Mar '18

06 Mar '18

Hello, I'm trying to use stunnel in server mode with certificates from the Windows Certificate Store. I have a basic configuration which is working with a PEM certificate file and I'm trying to get it to use a cert via the CAPI engine. Here is my basic (working) config: debug = debug output = C:\stunnel\stunnel.log options = -NO_SSLv3 [https] accept = 443 connect = 80 cert = stunnel.pem Here is my config using the CAPI engine: debug = debug output = C:\stunnel\stunnel.log engine = capi engineCtrl = debug_level:2 engineCtrl = debug_file:c:\stunnel\capi.log engineCtrl = store_flags:1 engineCtrl = list_certs options = -NO_SSLv3 [https] accept = 443 connect = 80 engineId = capi However stunnel does not seem to find a certificate to use: [...] 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Enabling support for engine "capi" 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Executing engine control command debug_level:2 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Executing engine control command debug_file:c:\stunnel\capi.log 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Executing engine control command store_flags:1 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Executing engine control command list_certs 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Initializing engine #1 (capi) 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG6[main]: Engine #1 (capi) initialized [...] 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG6[main]: Initializing service [https] 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: Ciphers: HIGH:!DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: TLS options: 0x01004004 (+0x03004000, -0x02000000) 2018.03.06 10:22:05 LOG7[main]: No certificate or private key specified [...] And I have no certificates listed in the CAPI debug log: Setting debug level to 2 Setting debug file to c:\stunnel\capi.log Setting flags to 1 Listing certs for store MY Opening certificate store MY capi_cert_get_fname When I load the engine via OpenSSL, I can see that a certificate is present in the store: C:\stunnel\bin>openssl.exe engine -t dynamic -pre "SO_PATH:C:\stunnel\engines\capi.dll" -pre LOAD -post store_flags:1 -post store_name:MY -post list_certs WARNING: can't open config file: /devel/win32/openssl/openssl.cnf (dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support [Success]: SO_PATH:C:\stunnel\engines\capi.dll [Success]: LOAD Loaded: (capi) CryptoAPI ENGINE [ available ] [Success]: store_flags:1 Certificate 0 Friendly Name "test" Subject: CN = test Issuer: CN = test [Success]: list_certs This certificate (and the associated private key) has been generated via the IIS Manager console and I have imported it in the Local Computer Store (with the private key). Does anybody have any idea what I am missing to get this to work ? I can provide more logs and run more tests if necessary. I'm using Stunnel 5.44 on Windows 2008 R2. I tried with an older version (5.40) but same problem. Thanks. Kevin

Hi All , it's mandatory for use stunnel wich the infrastructure has client stunnel and server stunnel ?? Or I can have client stunnel vs Web server HTTPS without stunnel server , only web server https . I newbie in stunnel , but i think is mandatory install stunnel in both sites , that's is correct?
