Sample: errno = -1; ret = connect(...); if( ret == -1 ) { printf("errno=%d\n",errno); } will displays value -1 for errno, not EINPROGRESS or EWOULDBLOCK ! errno is not updated ... So errno doen't reflect the real value. Map file of stunnel programm shows _errno_localion(), as you wrote. Perhaps is there a bug in uClib ? Here is the result of ldd command: # ldd stunnel libssl.so.1.0.0 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0 (0x400f3000) libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 (0x4013d000) libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x4027c000) libdl.so.0 => /lib/libdl.so.0 (0x4029b000) libutil.so.0 => /lib/libutil.so.0 (0x4009e000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x400a7000) libc.so.0 => /lib/libc.so.0 (0x402a6000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x400c6000) ld-uClibc.so.0 => /lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 (0x4008f000) Thanks for help.

connect error 0 running on ARM platform
by FX35 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Hello, Running stunnel 4.56 or 5.00 on an ARM platform (ARM926EJ) with Linux 2.6.36.4, I encounter the following error : the call to connect() return -1, but errno is set to 0 ! If stunnel is configured to use fork mode instead of pthread mode, the problem disapear. So it seems there is a problem, cross-compiling the program, with errno or __errno_location() in the program generated with pthread. I add the definition of _REENTRANT, without success ... (See $H1 at http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/linuxthreads/faq.html) Is somebody meet the same error ? Thanks for help. FWX.

What checks are made for verify=2
by Ender Erel 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Hi All, I have been searching the web for information on what checks are made for verify=2 but I can't find any detailed information. What exactly goes on when I use verify=2 in client mode? Does stunnel only check if the certificate is signed by a valid CA? Or are any other X.509 attributes checked? Does it disallow settings like "CA=true"? I would really appreciate it if someone could point me where I can find about details of various verify levels. Thanks, Ender Erel

Error starting STunnel
by Ted Roeloffzen 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Hi All, I've installed and configured my STunnel. But it won't start. The error i'm getting is: PEM_read_bio:no start line I use the certificate isn't valid, but it's a certificate that i received from a third party and should be correct. Do i have to add something to or alter the certificate so that STUnnel can work with it? kind regards, Ted

Stunnel should allow TLS v1.1, 1.2 in fips mode
by Douglas Harris (M) 07 Jan '14

07 Jan '14

Currently, stunnel only allows "sslVersion = TLSv1" when "fips = yes". TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 should also be permissible values for sslVersion in fips mode. -Doug

After upgrading OpenSSL, stunnel times out trying to receive emails

I've upgraded the OpenSSL on my test mail server, and recompiled Stunnel. Now when Stunnel receives an email it gets stuck on the "SSL state (accept): before/accept initialization" step and times out after a few minutes.

Error on attempt to launch Stunnel
by Tracy Drake - QI-C 20 Dec '13

20 Dec '13

Hello! I wonder if you can offer insight as to the significance of the following error on attempt to launch the new 4.56 Stunnel... [image: Inline image 1] Perhaps it was simply a botched/incomplete installation but I wanted to reach out before just attempting a reinstall. Thanks in advance! -- Tracy Drake CSM Senior Consultant GSA-FAS FAME Contractor URSA & INFOConnect Support & Training Team Lead 704-987-1211 tracy.drake(a)gsa.gov

Stunnel client cuts off the responce of the server
by bernabei＠infinito.it 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

Hi,  I use stunnel both the client and server side, but I have problem with server responces because my client app receive only a cut off responce from the server,whose size turns out to be 18 KB. I'd like to know if the BUFFSIZE constant is the maximum size of the message that a client can read.  What if the server sends a message that is bigger than the buffer size? the remaining byte are ignored? if so, how can I do?   Waiting for an answer Thanks in advance Chiara Bernabei
