TIMEOUTbusy
by Martin Beauchamp 02 Aug '06

Hi List, I'm running Stunnel 4.15 under win32 in client mode. Can someone give me a better idea about what TIMEOUTbusy does? The docs state that it is "time to wait for expected data." But what does Stunnel do after this period? Does it disconnect from the remote server? Does it attempt another SSL session after some interval? Thanks for any addition information!

stunnel crashing on connect
by Kevin King 24 Jul '06

24 Jul '06

Hi, I am attempting to run stunnel on Windows XP Pro but it is crashing as soon as anything connects to it. I am using it to create a secure TLS tunnel in front of an SMTP mail server and from what I read I should be able to do this and stunnel will handle the STARTLS commands. I downloaded the following windows binary: 562589 Mar 11 13:02:35 2006 stunnel-4.15-installer.exe I made minimal changes to stunnel.conf: 1) added the line "protocol = smtp" 2) uncommented the debug lines (still crashes if I leave these lines alone) I then start stunnel, either as a service or from cmd line - same thing happens >From a command prompt I then "telnet localhost 465" and send "EHLO mydomain.com hi" Stunnel responds with "250-EHLO mydomain.com hi Welcome". I am also running hMailServer on the same machine listening on port 25. It looks like stunnel is forwarded the initial EHLO to hMailServer, then hMailServer responds correctly and stunnel forwards that response back to me. Then stunnel crashes immediatly. Following is the log: 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG6[112:1656]: PRNG seeded successfully 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Certificate: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Key file: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: SSL context initialized for service pop3s 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Certificate: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Key file: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: SSL context initialized for service imaps 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Certificate: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: Key file: stunnel.pem 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:1656]: SSL context initialized for service ssmtp 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG5[112:1656]: stunnel 4.15 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG5[112:1656]: Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG5[112:2564]: No limit detected for the number of clients 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: FD 1884 in non-blocking mode 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: pop3s bound to 0.0.0.0:995 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: FD 1872 in non-blocking mode 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: imaps bound to 0.0.0.0:993 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: FD 1864 in non-blocking mode 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2006.07.20 10:28:41 LOG7[112:2564]: ssmtp bound to 0.0.0.0:465 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2564]: ssmtp accepted FD=1840 from 127.0.0.1:1543 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2564]: Creating a new thread 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2564]: New thread created 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: ssmtp started 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: FD 1840 in non-blocking mode 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: TCP_NODELAY option set on local socket 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG5[112:2936]: ssmtp connected from 127.0.0.1:1543 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: FD 1812 in non-blocking mode 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: ssmtp connecting 127.0.0.1:25 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: connect_wait: waiting 10 seconds 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: connect_wait: connected 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: Remote FD=1812 initialized 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: TCP_NODELAY option set on remote socket 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG5[112:2936]: Negotiations for smtp (server side) started 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: RFC 2487 detected 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: <- 220 hmailserver ESMTP 2006.07.20 10:28:59 LOG7[112:2936]: -> 220220 hmailserver ESMTP + stunnel 2006.07.20 10:29:09 LOG7[112:2936]: <- EHLO mydomain.com hi 2006.07.20 10:29:09 LOG7[112:2936]: -> 250-EHLO mydomain.com hi Welcome Here is the output of stunnel -version: stunnel 4.15 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005 Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 Global options debug = 5 RNDbytes = 64 RNDoverwrite = yes service = stunnel taskbar = yes Service-level options cert = stunnel.pem ciphers = ALL:!ADH:+RC4:@STRENGTH key = stunnel.pem session = 300 seconds TIMEOUTbusy = 300 seconds TIMEOUTclose = 60 seconds TIMEOUTconnect = 10 seconds TIMEOUTidle = 43200 seconds verify = none 2006.07.20 10:25:04 LOG3[3256:3456]: Server is down I tried building the source and debugging it but I only found some batch files refering to the MS embedded compiler.

Which I would rather not have to do, I would like to just use the binary but it is crashing before I ever get a chance to test it. Any help would greatly be appreciated. thanks, -Kevin

stunnel version issue?
by NobbyNoMates 22 Jul '06

22 Jul '06

Dear all - I am trying to set up an stunnel connection on an Ubuntu Dapper box. This system seems to give me (stunnel -V) : stunnel 3.26 on i486-pc-linux-gnu PTHREAD+LIBWRAP with OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005 and no matter where I look. I cannot seem to find an option to specify a config file when starting stunnel. Unfortunately, the instructions which I have received for setting up my (Direct Connect) client, contain such a config file which is supposed to be needed. It contains the following: client = yes delay = yes output = stunnel.log debug = notice pid = stunnel.pid [DC Server] connect = server.address.org:AAAAA accept = 127.0.0.1:BBBBB where of course the AAAA and BBBB are port numbers. Now I wonder if there is any way to make my stunnel version function in the specified way without the config file? Or is there some alternative way to specify this kind of config? Any suggestion would be much appreciated! Best regards, Erik

Hello. I rewrote some parts of the question, and illustrated it by a small ASCII picture to clearifiy the whole situation. I don't know why I haven't got a single answer, because over 350 people are subscribed to the list, so I hope that I'll get some help now. It would be grateful. I use SocksCap to forward the iexplore cnnections to another port, a port on which stunnel listens. On PC1, the client, stunnel is listening on port 500. So when I start iexplore.exe with SocksCap every connection goes to 127.0.0.1:500. PC1 connects to PC2, with connect = 192.168.0.2:123 On PC2, the server, stunnel listens on port 500. then is connects to the internet with connect = 127.0.0.1:80. Here is the problem, stunnel doesn't connect to the internet over 127.0.0.1:80. I don't know why, but it doesnt. ---Stunnel.conf SERVER--- ..

I think i have to use something different than connect = 127.0.0.1:80 on PC2, but not sure. The version of stunnel is 4.15 I'm using Windows. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Hi, Ok, this has clarified things for me. Another question, do you have a copy of the proxy program (SocksCap ?) running on PC2? If not then this is the problem. I believe that stunnel does not itself act as a proxy. It simply acts as a tunnel. >From your description of your config I suspect that you should have a second copy of SocksCap listenening on PC2 which will forward data onto the internet. A quick example: PC1: SocksCap listening on port 8080 ( for example) forwards to 127.0.0.1:500 stunnel listening on port 500, forwarded any data to PC2 port 500 PC2: stunnel listening on port 500 forwards data to 127.0.0.1:8080 SocksCap listening on port 8080 forwards data out to the internet. This will encrypt data between PC1 & PC2 but after that it will be back in plain. In order to test this I would break it down into its individual components and test each stage. I recommend downloading netcat (http://netcat.sourceforge.net/ or google for it) and learn how to use it. Sorry I can't help you with this bit, its better if you learn it yourself - and once you have you will wonder how you ever managed without it ;) Regards Ian --

Stunnel for HTTP encription

Hello! I'm tring to encript HTTP. I use two PCs, PC1 and PC2. PC1 is a client PC2 is a server. IP of PC1:192.168.0.1 IP of PC2:192.168.0.2 I use SocksCap to forward the iexplore cnnections to another port, a port on which stunnel listens. On PC1, the client, stunnel is listening on port 500.

configure/compile issue on AIX
by Boxall, John 13 Jul '06

13 Jul '06

I'm trying to get stunnel working on AIX 5.3. I'm running the configure with "--prefix=/opt/freeware", however, when I start stunnel it is looking for the stunnel.conf file in /usr/local/etc/stunnel. Shouldn't it be looking for it in "/opt/freeware/etc/stunnel", which is where the "make install" put it? Regards, John Boxall

Follow-up: Bad certificate? (was Expired certificate?)
by Boxall, John 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Mike, et al, The problem I was having with stunnel on a Windows box connecting with stunnel on a Unix server (Solaris in this case) turned out to be a mis-configuration of the syslog-ng server on Unix. I took a sample syslog-ng.conf from somewhere else and didn't know the impact of "max-connections(1)". Though I assume it is intended as a limit on the number of connections to the localhost (127.0.0.1:514), it effectively limits the number of in-bound connections from remote logging clients to 1 (in this case using port 5140). Removing this parameter allowed all of my test clients to simultaneously log to the server. Mike, the OpenSSL-generated cert works fine. Thanks. Regards, John Boxall

libssl.so.0.9.8 error running stunnel
by Michael Tyrrell 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

I have a Solaris 10 SPARC server running stunnel 4.15 with openssl version "OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006". When I try to run /usr/local/sbin/stunnel I get the following error. ld.so.1: stunnel: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.8: open failed: No such file or directory Killed In the stunnel.conf file I have debug set to 7 but it will not write to the stunnel.log file. I also get the same error if I run stunnel -version. Thanks for any help you could give.

Wildcard outbound IP matching...
by Jeff Roberts 07 Jul '06

07 Jul '06

Is there a way to configure Stunnel to capture outbound packets for *any* IP, but for a specific port? My SMTP server can be configured to connect directly to the final SMTP server. I can configure the outbound port to some other port other than 25, so I'd like to say something like - [smtpclient] protocol=smtp accept = *:2210 connect = *:25 Suggestions? ->Jeff RAD Game Tools

Bad certificate? (was Expired certificate?)
by Boxall, John 30 Jun '06

30 Jun '06

Mike, I've created a self-signed certificate on my Windows test box using OpenSSL 0.9.7j (the version from Shining Light). I created the key file with the following command: "openssl genrsa 1024 > \host.key Here is the command I used to create the self-signed cert: "openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 9999 -key \host.key > \host.cert" I then copied the key/cert to the appropriate file in the stunnel directory. I then copied the cert to the Solaris server and included it with all other client certs. Here is the Windows configuration file: ; ;CLIENT-ONLY stunnel configuration file ; client = yes cert = C:\Program Files\stunnel\stunnel.pem-client-certificate CAfile = C:\Program Files\stunnel\stunnel.pem-server-certificate ;chroot = /var/run/stunnel ;pid = /usr/local/var/run/stunnel/stunnel.pid ;setuid = stunnel ;setgid = stunnel verify = 3 ;foreground = yes debug = 7 output = C:\Program Files\stunnel\stunnel.log [5140] accept = 127.0.0.1:514 connect = 172.17.99.143:5140 Here is the Solaris configuration file: ; ;SERVER-ONLY stunnel configuration file ; cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem-server-certificate CAfile = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem-all-client-certificates ;chroot = /var/run/stunnel ;pid = /var/run/stunnel/run/stunnel.pid ;setuid = stunnel ;setgid = stunnel verify = 3 ;foreground = yes debug = 7 output=/stunnel.log [5140] accept = 172.17.99.143:5140 connect = 127.0.0.1:514 The following happens on the Windows box when I first launch stunnel: 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG5[516:360]: stunnel 4.15 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG5[516:360]: Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG5[516:392]: No limit detected for the number of clients 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG7[516:392]: FD 1904 in non-blocking mode 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG7[516:392]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2006.06.30 09:51:31 LOG7[516:392]: 5140 bound to 127.0.0.1:514 Nothing happens on the Solaris box.

Stunnel 4.15 cannot handle PKCS8 format private keys
by David Gillingham 29 Jun '06

29 Jun '06

In modifying stunnel to work with the OpenSSL FIPS-certified module, I found out that private keys cannot be in the default OpenSSL format; they must be in PKCS8 format (due to the MD5 algorithm being disabled in FIPS mode). Talking to Dr. Henson of the OpenSSL group I was able to convert my private keys from the default format to PKCS8, but I found that stunnel was not able to handle these keys. I got the following error output (note that server.pem contains a PKCS8 private key and a PKCS7 public cert): 2006.06.08 17:49:38 LOG7[1120:616]: Certificate: server.pem 2006.06.08 17:49:38 LOG7[1120:616]: Key file: server.pem 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: error stack: 140B3009 : error:140B3009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file:PEM lib 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: error stack: 906700D : error:0906700D:PEM routines:PEM_ASN1_read_bio:ASN1 lib 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: error stack: 2306A075 : error:2306A075:PKCS12 routines:PKCS12_DECRYPT_D2I:pkcs12 pbe crypt error 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: error stack: 23077073 : error:23077073:PKCS12 routines:PKCS12_pbe_crypt:pkcs12 algor cipherinit error 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey_file: 6074079: error:06074079:digital envelope routines:EVP_PBE_CipherInit:unknown pbe algorithm 2006.06.08 17:49:42 LOG3[1120:616]: Server is down Continuing with Dr. Henson, he informed me that this ssl error output meant that "the PBE table has not been initialized in the application". I corrected this by adding a call to OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() into ssl_init() in ssl.c. This fixed my error with the PEM files. I am posting this so that this bug may be fixed for the next stunnel release. Additionally, I'd like verification that my fix makes sense given the structure of the stunnel code. From doing some searches in the stunnel source, I could not find any existing code that initialized the PBE table so adding the call to ssl_init() made sense _to me_. Michal: do you agree?

Expired certificate?
by Boxall, John 29 Jun '06

29 Jun '06

Michal, et al, When attempting to connect from a Windows box to a Solaris box (as the server), the Solaris stunnel log (debug = 7) shows that the certificate on the Windows box (included with the download) has expired. I can connect from a Solaris 9 client box with no problems. The Solaris box is running as an NTP client to an internal NTP server. The Windows box isn't logged into a domain, but the time is within 5 minutes of the Solaris box.

patch to build stunnel 4.15 with VS2005
by David Gillingham 29 Jun '06

29 Jun '06

All-- I have created a patch that will allow stunnel 4.15 to be built with Visual Studio 2005's command line environment. I have only tested it with VS2k5, but it should work for all Visual Studio .NET versions (that is, VS 7.0 or later). After you apply this patch to the source tree, you will need to run the makefile from a Visual Studio Command prompt (Start->Programs->Visual Studio->Visual Studio Tools->Visual Studio Command Prompt). From there, change the working directory to the stunnel\src folder and execute the command "nmake -f vs.mak all". After the build process has completed, you will have a working stunnel.exe. This patch will modify vc.mak to a working makefile for nmake (mimicing the basic structure of mingw.mak), common.h to include a couple missing headers for the I/O functions in pty.c, and env.c to include the winsock headers under the Win32 environment (replicating how it was done in common.h). This patch that is a result of internal testing/development I've done here at work and am releasing it to this list (and the stunnel developers) so that these changes could possibly be included in future stunnel releases. To the stunnel devs: if there's any additional work that can be done to get this integrated by the next release, just mention it. The other day, I tried sending the patch to the list as an attachment, but my message never showed up on either the mirt.net or google groups mirrors. I can only assume it was rejected because of the attachment. What follows is the full text of my patch file. > cat 4.15-MSVC2005.patch diff -cr stunnel-4.15-orig/src/common.h stunnel-4.15/src/common.h *** stunnel-4.15-orig/src/common.h Fri Mar 10 08:54:56 2006 --- stunnel-4.15/src/common.h Fri Jun 23 21:41:00 2006 *************** *** 153,158 **** --- 153,164 ---- #endif #include <windows.h> + /* include Visual Studio headers needed for I/O manipulation */ + #ifdef _MSC_VER + #include <io.h> + #include <fcntl.h> + #endif + #define ECONNRESET WSAECONNRESET #define ENOTSOCK WSAENOTSOCK #define ENOPROTOOPT WSAENOPROTOOPT diff -cr stunnel-4.15-orig/src/env.c stunnel-4.15/src/env.c *** stunnel-4.15-orig/src/env.c Sat Jan 7 13:47:36 2006 --- stunnel-4.15/src/env.c Mon Jun 26 21:11:25 2006 *************** *** 31,45 **** /* getpeername() can't be declared in the following includes */ #define getpeername no_getpeername #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> /* for AF_INET */ #include <netinet/in.h> #include <arpa/inet.h> /* for inet_addr() */ #include <stdlib.h> /* for getenv() */ #ifdef __BEOS__ #include <be/bone/arpa/inet.h> /* for AF_INET */ #include <be/bone/sys/socket.h> /* for AF_INET */ - #else - #include <sys/socket.h> /* for AF_INET */ #endif #undef getpeername --- 31,52 ---- /* getpeername() can't be declared in the following includes */ #define getpeername no_getpeername #include <sys/types.h> + #ifdef USE_WIN32 + #ifdef _WIN32_WCE + #include <winsock.h> + #else + #include <winsock2.h> + #include <ws2tcpip.h> + #endif /* _WIN32_WCE */ + #else /* USE_WIN32 */ #include <sys/socket.h> /* for AF_INET */ #include <netinet/in.h> #include <arpa/inet.h> /* for inet_addr() */ + #endif /* USE_WIN32 */ #include <stdlib.h> /* for getenv() */ #ifdef __BEOS__ #include <be/bone/arpa/inet.h> /* for AF_INET */ #include <be/bone/sys/socket.h> /* for AF_INET */ #endif #undef getpeername diff -cr stunnel-4.15-orig/src/vc.mak stunnel-4.15/src/vc.mak *** stunnel-4.15-orig/src/vc.mak Sat Jan 21 10:17:32 2006 --- stunnel-4.15/src/vc.mak Tue Jun 27 21:02:15 2006 *************** *** 1,2 **** ! # makefile for VC is not ready... --- 1,45 ---- ! # Simple Makefile.w32 for stunnel.exe by Michal Trojnara 1998-2006 ! # ! # Modified by David Gillingham (dgillingham(a)gmail.com) for Visual ! # Studio ! ! # Modify this to point to your actual openssl compile directory ! # (You did already compile openssl, didn't you???) !

stunnel in proxy mode won't start
by Dave Hinz 28 Jun '06

28 Jun '06

I'm trying to run stunnel in proxy mode, to accept connections on port 443, and forward them to an application listening at port 9999 on the same box. I believe I have the configuration correct, but I'm obviously overlooking something. Environment: stunnel 4.15 on sparc-sun-solaris2.9 with OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005 I have built an stunnel.conf file, and a stunnel.pem file which are located in the correct place with the right permissions. I verified that by moving or changing permissions and seeing that errors were produced. I've changed the debug level to 7, and the following information is displayed when I try to start stunnel: cert# stunnel 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: Snagged 64 random bytes from /users/dave/.rnd 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: Wrote 1024 new random bytes to /users/dave/.rnd 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG6[9088:1]: PRNG seeded successfully 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: Certificate: /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: Key file: /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: Verify directory set to / 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG5[9088:1]: Peer certificate location / 2006.06.28 13:01:14 LOG7[9088:1]: SSL context initialized for service test cert# Same thing if I run it as stunnel stunnel.conf -fd The prompt comes back immediately, ps -ef shows no stunnel running, and nothing is answering on port 443 which is where I'm telling it to listen: stunnel.conf file: cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem chroot = /usr/local/etc/stunnel # PID is created inside chroot jail pid = /pid/stunnel.pid #setuid = nobody #setgid = nogroup # Authentication stuff verify = 3 # don't forget about c_rehash CApath # it is located inside chroot jail: CApath = / # Some debugging stuff debug = 7 output = stunnel.log # Use it for client mode client = no # Service-level configuration [test] accept = 127.0.0.1:443 connect = 127.0.0.1:9999 #TIMEOUTclose = 0 ---end stunnel.conf file--- The pem files are located in the same directory as the stunnel.conf, hence the "/" for the pathname above.

Hi All, I am looking at a problem and found the system is using stunnel with web server. From my google search I have understood that stunnel is used to make the application SSL enable. Please validate my understanding. I found following stunnel.cfg file in properties directory Port0 Enabled=0 ExternalPort=0 LocalPort=0 SSLEnabled=0 UDP=0 Port1 Enabled=1 ExternalPort=1500 LocalPort=10080 SSLEnabled=0 Port2 Enabled=0 ExternalPort=1600 LocalPort=10080 SSLEnabled=1 ------------------------------------------------------ I have the following questions: 1] what is the meaning of ExternalPort and LocalPort ? How does these ports relate with each other? Please help me in understanding this configuration file. Thanks, Dheeraj __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

Re: enabling zlib compression

I'd really like to get this working, but I'm not sure what other information you require? All other posts on this subject refer to making sure zlib is included when openssl is compiled. Well, I've confirmed that it is. Would a strace of stunnel attempting to start up help? FYI - The output of stunnel -version displays... stunnel 4.15 on i686-pc-linux-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.7a Feb 19 2003 Threading:PTHREAD SSL:ENGINE Sockets:POLL,IPv4 Auth:LIBWRAP Could someone please provide me with some suggestions.

Patch to fix compile errors under MS Visual C++ 2005
by David Gillingham 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

Attached is a patch for stunnel 4.15 that allows the source to be built under Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Here's a rundown of what's been changed: In common.h, I included io.h and fcntl.h so that pty.c would build without error. In env.c, I included the winsock headers (replicating how it was done for common.h), and removed a duplicate include of sys/socket.h. The latter change wasn't necessary for compiliation with MSVC, but I thought I'd remove what looked like an unncessary line. To get stunnel to build without warning, I defined the following preprocessor definitions: USE_WIN32 _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE HAVE_GETADDRINFO HAVE_GETNAMEINFO _MBCS Later in the week, I'll post a patch to vs.mak to automate the build process (I'm still building with a solution file at the moment). To the stunnel developers: If there's anything extra I can do to ensure these changes are incorporated into the next release, please let me know.

Re: enabling zlib compression

I have checked the OpenSSL INSTALL file and zlib /should/ be enabled by default... zlib-dynamic Like "zlib", but has OpenSSL load the zlib library dynamically when needed. This is only supported on systems where loading of shared libraries is supported. This is the default choice. If I can assume that Linux supports the loading of shared libraries, then can someone please help me to get zlib compression working over the stunnel. Thanks very much.
