Fwd: Comments/questions to Debian patches

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Users, Peter Pentchev, the Debian package maintainer for the "stunnel4" package, does not reply to my emails. I hope he is still alive and well, just too busy to maintain the package. I decided to share with you my comments to the patches that are applied to the Debian package. Hopefully, someone will find them useful. Mike - -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Comments/questions to Debian patches Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2014 21:13:25 +0100 From: Michal Trojnara <Michal.Trojnara(a)mirt.net> To: Peter Pentchev <roam(a)ringlet.net> Hi Peter, Just a few comments/questions to improve the quality of Debian package. I'll be glad to discuss if you disagree with my opinions. 01-fix-paths.patch The patch description is quite outdated. Translation from sbin to bin was performed upstream in stunnel 4.21 released 27 Oct 2007. 8-) I guess: /usr/bin/stunnel -fd 10 \ should be: /usr/bin/stunnel4 -fd 10 \ Probably this should be added to the next patch: 02-rename-binary.patch 05-logrotate-warning-in-sample-conf.patch Good idea. I'll add it to stunnel 5.07. 08-client-example.patch I've already added this example in stunnel 5.02. Your patch adds it once again. Just remove it. 10-no-zlib-compression.patch I'm completely confused by this patch. According to my tests it only makes stunnel reporting different errors when a user tries to enable compression on Debian. Why would anyone need this patch? 11-no-rle-compression.patch IMHO OpenSSL bugs should be fixed in OpenSSL, and not in stunnel. YMMV 12-restore-pidfile-default.patch I strongly disagree with this approach, as it breaks configuration file compatibility with the upstream. Debian should instead rewrite stunnel.conf when upgrading from stunnel 4.xx. 14-lsb-init-functions.patch 8-) 15-upstream-systemd-libs.patch This (and more) will be included in stunnel 5.07. 16-upstream-sslv23-method.patch This will be included in stunnel 5.07.

Redis with stunnel, need to reset a client connection if the remote server drops
by Cocytus 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

Hello all, I've spent some time digging through the archives, but have yet to turn up a solution to the issue I'm having. We're using Redis instances on 'cloud' resources, and have successfully gotten stunnel setup as a server on these nodes. Additionally an internal process runs and connects to a local stunnel client that then connects to the remote cloud instance. This is working well enough at the moment, however there is one issue I'm bumping into. If the remote EC2 node goes dark for a bit (ie: reboot), the local stunnel client will reconnect, however the internal process which is establishing its connection to the local stunnel client does not get disconnected and therefore doesn't know that redis became unavailable and needs to re-subscribe to the redis stream. I need to invalidate the established session when the remote reconnects. Can this be accomplished with either a TIMEOUT value or session statement? Below is a sample of the configuration: ########### [some-ec2-node.com] client = yes verify = 2 CApath = /etc/ssl/certs sslVersion = TLSv1 accept = 127.0.0.1:10008 connect = some-ec2-node.com:6379 ########### $ stunnel4 -version stunnel 4.53 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu platform Compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013 Running with OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 Update OpenSSL shared libraries or rebuild stunnel Threading:PTHREAD SSL:+ENGINE+OCSP Auth:LIBWRAP Sockets:POLL+IPv6 Global options: debug = daemon.notice pid = /var/run/stunnel4.pid RNDbytes = 64 RNDfile = /dev/urandom RNDoverwrite = yes Service-level options: ciphers = ALL:!SSLv2:!aNULL:!EXP:!LOW:-MEDIUM:RC4:+HIGH curve = prime256v1 session = 300 seconds sslVersion = TLSv1 for client, all for server stack = 65536 bytes TIMEOUTbusy = 300 seconds TIMEOUTclose = 60 seconds TIMEOUTconnect = 10 seconds TIMEOUTidle = 43200 seconds verify = none -- Josh

Rewriting HTTP host header
by Veit Guna 19 Apr '15

19 Apr '15

Hi. After disabling SSLv3 I've got the same problem as: https://www.stunnel.org/pipermail/stunnel-users/2014-October/004814.html Sadly, he never got an answer. So I ask again, is it possible that stunnel could set the HTTP Host header to match the "connect = " setting? This way, Apache would accept that request instead of returning BAD REQUEST with AH02032. Thanks Veit

Hello I'm trying to setup stunnel 4.20 yes it is an old version but the only one on HP's website for VMS. I need a little help in the conf files. Since I will be using telnet, do I need to put in each machines ip address that will be connecting? So in the example below do I create a listing of connects? [telnet] accept = 999 connect = 192.168.0.1:993 Thanks Paul Paul J Coviello Senior System Administrator CCS Corporate Headquarters Two Wells Avenue, Newton, MA 02459 617.965.2000, Ext. 4004 [cid:[email protected]] [cid:[email protected]] CCS Commercial, LLC | CCS Resources, Inc. | ClaimAssist, LLC | Credit Control Services, Inc.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Users, I have released version 5.15 of stunnel. The ChangeLog entry: Version 5.15, 2015.04.16, urgency: LOW: * New features - Added new service-level options "checkHost", "checkEmail" and "checkIP" for additional checks of the peer certificate subject. These options require OpenSSL version 1.0.2 or higher. - Win32 binary distribution now ships with the Mozilla root CA bundle. This bundle is intended be used together with the new "checkHost" option to validate server certs accepted by Mozilla. - New commandline options "-reload" to reload the configuration file and "-reopen" to reopen the log file of stunnel running as a Windows service (thx to Marc McLaughlin). - Added session persistence based on negotiated TLS sessions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_balancing_%28computing%29#Persistence The current implementation does not support external TLS session caching with sessiond. - MEDIUM ciphers (currently SEED and RC4) are removed from the default cipher list. - The "redirect" option was improved to not only redirect sessions established with an untrusted certificate, but also sessions established without a client certificate. - OpenSSL version checking modified to distinguish FIPS and non-FIPS builds. - Improved compatibility with the current OpenSSL 1.1.0-dev tree. - Removed support for OpenSSL versions older than 0.9.7. The final update for the OpenSSL 0.9.6 branch was 17 Mar 2004. - "sessiond" support improved to also work in OpenSSL 0.9.7. - Randomize the initial value of the round-robin counter. - New stunnel.conf templates are provided for Windows and Unix. * Bugfixes - Fixed compilation against old versions of OpenSSL. - Fixed memory leaks in certificate verification.

Claudia, Yes, to create a tunnel you need to configure stunnel on both sides, except in those cases when one of the extremes already supports TLS. Looks like yours is not one of those cases.

Verifying TLS authentication via stunnel logs
by shanmuganathan sedukumar 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

We have a requirement to send emails via a SMTP server which requires TLS authentication. Going through some logs we tried changing the parameter "SSLversion = TLSv1", but still getting authentication failure. So, we would like to verify if stunnel is trying to sending request via TLS method before looking for any issues at SMTP end. Is there a way we can verify from stunnel logs if the request is sent via TLS? Thanks & Regards,Shanmu

Session is active but I cannot connect
by daninho dj 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

Hi guys, I am struggling with a problem for some time. I searched about this problem in the stunnel mails archives and also on Google but couldn't find a solution and I ran out of ideas so I was thinking to write you about it. I am using Eclipse to access and manipulate the data from a linux server. I want to use stunnel when I connect to the server via Eclipse, so I installed and configured everything as it follows: The server I am using is SuSE Linux and the stunnel version which I installed is this one: *stunnel 4.27 on x86_64-suse-linux-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8j-fips 07 Jan 2009* The stunnel version on Windows 7 is: *stunnel version 5.10* In the conf file from linux (server) I have the following configuration for stunnel.conf: *client = no* *chroot = /var/lib/stunnel/* *setuid = root* *setgid = root* *pid = /var/run/stunnel.pid* *debug = 7* *output = /var/log/stunnel/stunnel.log* *cert = /etc/ssl/certs/stunnel.pem* *sslVersion = SSLv3* *[test]* *accept = 2404* *connect = 2406* In the conf file from windows (client) I have the following configuration in stunnel.conf: *debug = 7* *output = C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\stunnel.log* *cert = C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\stunnel.pem* *sslVersion = SSLv3* *[test]* *client = yes* *accept = 127.0.0.1:2404 <http://127.0.0.1:2404>* *connect = xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2406* In the log I have this: 2015.04.09 13:48:04 LOG5[11060]: Configuration successful 2015.04.09 13:48:04 LOG7[11060]: Listening file descriptor created (FD=452) 2015.04.09 13:48:04 LOG7[11060]: Service [test] (FD=452) bound to 127.0.0.1:2404 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[11060]: Service [test] accepted (FD=496) from 127.0.0.1:56675 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[11060]: Creating a new thread 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[11060]: New thread created 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[2088]: Service [test] started 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG5[2088]: Service [test] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:56675 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG6[2088]: s_connect: connecting xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2406 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[2088]: s_connect: s_poll_wait xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2406: waiting 10 seconds 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG5[2088]: s_connect: connected xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2406 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG5[2088]: Service [test] connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:56676 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[2088]: Remote socket (FD=516) initialized 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG6[2088]: SNI: sending servername: *my_server_name* 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[2088]: SSL state (connect): before/connect initialization 2015.04.09 13:48:07 LOG7[2088]: SSL state (connect): SSLv3 write client hello A 2015.04.09 13:48:08 LOG3[2088]: SSL_connect: Peer suddenly disconnected 2015.04.09 13:48:08 LOG5[2088]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to SSL, 0 byte(s) sent to socket 2015.04.09 13:48:08 LOG7[2088]: Remote socket (FD=516) closed 2015.04.09 13:48:08 LOG7[2088]: Local socket (FD=496) closed 2015.04.09 13:48:08 LOG7[2088]: Service [test] finished (0 left) Although in the stunnel log it's showing *s_connect: connected* I cannot connect at all. When I try to connect via port 2406, the stunnel icon shows that the server is idle and I have nothing in the log about it. When I try to connect via port 2404, the stunnel icon shows that the there are 2 active sessions but I cannot connect to the server. I tried switching the ports (2404 with 2406 and 2406 with 2404 in the stunnel.conf file) but stunnel doesn't even open in that case. Do you have any idea what might could be the problem and how could I solve it? Thanks in advance! Best Regards, Daninho --

5.xx Windows binaries - FIPS compliant?
by Rob Lockhart 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

I apologize if this was asked in the past. I couldn't find any references to my question in the lists except this (related but not answering the question): http://www.stunnel.org/pipermail/stunnel-users/2014-July/004673.html http://www.stunnel.org/pipermail/stunnel-users/2012-November/003963.html I understand how to compile Stunnel from source, and the FIPS canister for OpenSSL, then build OpenSSL with this FIPS canister, then build Stunnel using that OpenSSL. My question is for the Windows version with filename "stunnel-5.13-installer.exe". That compiled version doesn't seem to be built with FIPS canister, as the log shows: "Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.2a 19 Mar 2015" without a "-fips" appendage after the OpenSSL version. In other words, if it was built as FIPS-compliant, it would show: "Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.2a-fips 19 Mar 2015" It may support the FIPS options (in the config file) but it's not FIPS-compliant. I also assume that this doesn't preclude the FIPS options in the config file from working. Specifically, FIPS-compliant does NOT imply that FIPS mode cannot be enabled. Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks, -Rob

Libressl with stunnel
by jungle Boogie 29 Mar '15

Hello All, It appears that stunnel still requires openssl and cannot use libressl. Have the developers considered this patch: https://github.com/sabotage-linux/sabotage/commit/9b47cbbf3ce903dee042c45c8… This is from stunnel 5.02 days but are there any issues with applying this with 5.14? -- ------- inum: 883510009027723 sip: jungleboogie(a)sip2sip.info xmpp: jungle-boogie(a)jit.si

Multiple versions of TLS in config?
by Rob Lockhart 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Unless I'm mistaken, stunnel version 5 currently supports the options shown below for sslVersion: all => TLS v1.0, TLS v1.1, TLS v1.2, SSLv2, SSLv3 TLSv1 => TLS v1.0 only (not TLS v1.1, TLSv1.2, SSLv2 or SSLv3) TLSv1.1 => TLS v1.1 only TLSv1.2 => TLS v1.2 only In order to support TLS v1.0, TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2 but disable SSLv2 and SSLv3, you should have in the config file: sslVersion = all options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 (those last two lines may be default in the new Stunnel). However, what if I want to just have TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 but NOT TLSv1.0? I last tried this with Stunnel v5.10 but nothing in the changelogs tells me that this behavior has been changed to choose a list of protocols; only one parameter is accepted. Is there a way to allow TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 but disallow TLSv1.0? Thanks, -Rob

Stunnel urgency: HIGH versus LOW
by Rob Lockhart 24 Mar '15

24 Mar '15

Hello, I just noticed a urgency discrepancy for Stunnel 5.12 on the website (both of these links are under the Downloads section): https://www.stunnel.org/versions.html - shows 5.12 urgency as HIGH https://www.stunnel.org/sdf_ChangeLog.html - shows 5.12 urgency as LOW I don't know if it makes a difference with 5.13 available (assuming urgency = LOW) but I think 5.12 should have urgency=HIGH. Thanks, -Rob

Definition of accept/local/remote sockets
by David Wittman 21 Mar '15

21 Mar '15

Is there a clear definition of what stunnel defines as the accept, local, and remote sockets below? > socket = a|l|r:OPTION=VALUE[:VALUE] > Set an option on accept/local/remote socket From: http://www.stunnel.org/static/stunnel.html It seems to me that the accept and local socket would be the same thing. Thanks, Dave

Receive from secure servers
by Info ITsatWork 21 Mar '15

21 Mar '15

Hello, A company which we work with wants to send secure (TLS) mails to our server. I think stunnel can do the trick for me, as our own server (Scalix) doesn't support TLS for itself. Now I set up stunnel and it looks like its working, except it's not receiving secured mails. I can still receive normal mails, so somehow it is not working. I used the sample config and filled in the things I thought I needed. My config: ; Sample stunnel configuration file for Unix by Michal Trojnara 2002-2015 ; Some options used here may be inadequate for your particular configuration ; This sample file does *not* represent stunnel.conf defaults ;

STunnel v5.11 Multi SNI
by Scott McKeown 18 Mar '15

18 Mar '15

Hi Michal, Thank you for the update and yes this does work but I feel that this is incorrect. Lets say that I have two domains domain.com newdomain.com If I'm load balancing these domains to different backend servers this will not work as it will always hit domain.com using this style of wildcard. I think it should be: sni = http:*.domain.com This will then split out the domains, I know that the chance of this being the case is low but I do believe that this should be how SNI is handled for this type of case.

STunnel v5.11 Multi SNI

Hi Guys, I've got a small issue where I'm trying to use multiple SNI rules in an STunnel frontend: STunnel Version is: stunnel -version stunnel 5.11 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu platform Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013 Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,FIPS,OCSP,PSK,SNI Global options: debug = daemon.notice RNDbytes = 64 RNDfile = /dev/urandom RNDoverwrite = yes Service-level options: ciphers = FIPS (with "fips = yes") ciphers = HIGH:MEDIUM:+3DES:+DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2 (with "fips = no") curve = prime256v1 options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 sessionCacheSize = 1000 sessionCacheTimeout = 300 seconds stack = 65536 bytes TIMEOUTbusy = 300 seconds TIMEOUTclose = 60 seconds TIMEOUTconnect = 10 seconds TIMEOUTidle = 43200 seconds verify = none stunnel.conf is: [https] accept = 443 connect = 80 [www_test] sni = https:test.com sni = https:www.test.com connect = 192.168.64.220:80 [testing] sni = https:testing.com sni = https:www.testing.com connect = 192.168.64.253:80 I've created local DNS rules for each of these Hosts but the problem is that only the last entered sni rule gets matched so for example www.test.com works but test.com does not. Its the same for testing.com and www.testing.com This is what the log file show too: 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12776]: Service [https] accepted (FD=21) from 192.168.63.50:53123 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12808]: Service [https] started 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG5[12808]: Service [https] accepted connection from 192.168.63.50:53123 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12808]: SSL state (accept): before/accept initialization 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG6[12808]: SNI: requested servername: testing.com 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG3[12808]: SNI: no pattern matched servername: testing.com 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12808]: SSL alert (write): fatal: unrecognized name 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG3[12808]: SSL_accept: 1408A0E2: error:1408A0E2:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:clienthello tlsext 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG5[12808]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to SSL, 0 byte(s) sent to socket 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12808]: Local socket (FD=21) closed 2015.03.03 20:01:19 LOG7[12808]: Service [https] finished (7 left) 2015.03.03 20:01:29 LOG6[12805]: Read socket closed (readsocket) 2015.03.03 20:01:29 LOG7[12805]: Sending close_notify alert 2015.03.03 20:01:29 LOG7[12805]: SSL alert (write): warning: close notify 2015.03.03 20:01:29 LOG6[12805]: SSL_shutdown successfully sent close_notify alert 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG6[12805]: SSL socket closed (SSL_read) 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG7[12805]: Sent socket write shutdown 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG5[12805]: Connection closed: 485 byte(s) sent to SSL, 642 byte(s) sent to socket 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG7[12805]: Remote socket (FD=14) closed 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG7[12805]: Local socket (FD=13) closed 2015.03.03 20:01:30 LOG7[12805]: Service [www_test] finished (6 left) 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12776]: Service [https] accepted (FD=13) from 192.168.63.50:53128 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12809]: Service [https] started 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG5[12809]: Service [https] accepted connection from 192.168.63.50:53128 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12809]: SSL state (accept): before/accept initialization 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG6[12809]: SNI: requested servername: testing.com 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG3[12809]: SNI: no pattern matched servername: testing.com 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12809]: SSL alert (write): fatal: unrecognized name 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG3[12809]: SSL_accept: 1408A0E2: error:1408A0E2:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:clienthello tlsext 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG5[12809]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to SSL, 0 byte(s) sent to socket 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12809]: Local socket (FD=13) closed 2015.03.03 20:01:49 LOG7[12809]: Service [https] finished (6 left) I have seen a couple of patch files floating around but they are for older versions and I can't get them to compile into the v5.11 version.

SSH connection problems inside stunnel
by debian＠bercot.org 13 Mar '15

Hello, I've installed a stunnel between my laptop and my server (both in Debian SID) [v5.06-2]. Here is my client stunnel.conf : pid = /var/run/stunnel.pid client = yes sslVersion = TLSv1.2 debug = 7 [ssh] accept = 5000 protocol = connect protocolHost = myserver:443 connect = myproxy:8080 The server one : cert = mycert key = mykey chroot = /var/lib/stunnel4/ setuid = stunnel4 setgid = stunnel4 pid = /stunnel4.pid socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 sslVersion = TLSv1.2 ; https ou ssh encapsulé dans du ssl [sslh] accept = 443 connect = myserver:444 And my .ssh/config : Host myserver HostName localhost Port 5000 IdentityFile ~/.ssh/mykey ProtocolKeepAlives 6 At home (I use tinyproxy to test), everything is OK. At work, with a "true" proxy, sometimes I can connect (but I'm quickly disconnected), sometimes I can't... I've watch the logs but find nothing. Do you have any idea ? Something to look in the logs ? Here is an example of a short connection : ~ $ ssh myserver root@myserver:~# cat /var/log/syslog | grep stunnel [...] root@myserver~# Timeout, server localhost not responding. More often I have : ~ $ ssh myserver ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host In my local logs : Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3984]: Service [ssh] accepted (FD=3) from 127.0.0.1:44794 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Service [ssh] started Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG5[3223]: Service [ssh] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:44794 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: s_connect: connecting myproxy:8080 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: s_connect: s_poll_wait myproxy:8080: waiting 10 seconds Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG5[3223]: s_connect: connected myproxy:8080 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG5[3223]: Service [ssh] connected remote server from myIP:58282 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Remote socket (FD=8) initialized Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: -> CONNECT myserver:443 HTTP/1.1 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: -> Host: myserver:443 Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: -> Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: <- HTTP/1.1 200 Connection established Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: CONNECT request accepted Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: <- Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: SNI: sending servername: myserver Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): before/connect initialization Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL state (connect): unknown state Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 54 items in the session cache Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 109 client connects (SSL_connect()) Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 110 client connects that finished Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 client renegotiations requested Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 server connects (SSL_accept()) Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 server connects that finished Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 server renegotiations requested Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 56 session cache hits Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 external session cache hits Mar 12 13:24:41 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: 0 session cache misses Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL alert (read): warning: close notify Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: SSL closed (SSL_read) Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Sent socket write shutdown Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: Read socket closed (readsocket) Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: Read socket closed (hangup) Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: Write socket closed (hangup) Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Sending close_notify alert Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: SSL alert (write): warning: close notify Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG6[3223]: SSL_shutdown successfully sent close_notify alert Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG5[3223]: Connection closed: 32 byte(s) sent to SSL, 0 byte(s) sent to socket Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Remote socket (FD=8) closed Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Local socket (FD=3) closed Mar 12 13:24:43 mylaptop stunnel: LOG7[3223]: Service [ssh] finished (0 left) Thank you.
