GMail on Windows using ACT
by Richard Brust 24 Feb '09

24 Feb '09

I am attempting to send/receive to GMail through a CRM program (contains email client) called ACT! (http://www.act.com) ACT! only allows server addresses in the program configuration, NOT port numbers. (e.g. smtp.gmail.com or 127.0.0.1 - nothing else) I have configured *stunnel 4.26* as such: ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = 7 output = stunnel.log ; Use it for client mode client = yes ; Service-level configuration [pop] accept = localhost:110 connect = pop.gmail.com:995 [smtp] accept = localhost:25 connect = smtp.gmail.com:465 and in ACT as such: SMTP as localhost POP as localhost (also have tried 127.0.0.1, but with no difference). The log is below, but the short of it is that I still cannot get through to the GMail servers. I do not see any glaring errors below, but I'm sure there is something useful. Thank you for any help... 2009.02.24 13:34:35 LOG7[3752:2216]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2009.02.24 13:34:35 LOG7[3752:2216]: PRNG seeded successfully 2009.02.24 13:34:35

Stunnel error

Hi, I use the STunnel tool to connect to my Ms-SQL database. And so far this works nice. However at one organization I have the following problem: << connect_wait: s_poll_wait timeout>> And the connection fails. Here is the log file and config file. Can you give me any hints how to check where it goes wrong? Thanks.

stunnel hanging (libwrap)
by Ulrich Wisser 11 Feb '09

Hi, on my current project I have a strange error. Stunnel will work for months and suddenly stop accepting connections. At other times it will fail after a couple of hours. It doesn't crash. Connections are still accepted, but no SSL negotiation does take place. Please find a log below. It seems to be some problem with libwrap. As you can see in the logs the last usage of libwrap doesn't release libwrap properly. "Released libwrap process" log statement is missing. And after that just everything hangs waiting for libwrap. But why is this happening? Our host.allow and host.deny files are empty. libwrap is supposed to allow everything. Any suggestions are welcome!

stunnel client connecting to host with dynamic dns service
by Adamson H 09 Feb '09

09 Feb '09

Hi, stunnel 4.26 solves a number of issues running on FreeBSD. However, a stunnel client still has a problem reconnecting to a host with dynamic DNS service after the host IP has changed. Stunnel client seems unaware of the host update, pointing the dynamic DNS name to the old outdated IP. In order to get reconnected to the host, I have to create a cron script to detect the IP change and restart stunnel on the stunnel client. My client conf file has the following: [1873] accept = 1873 connect = hostname.dynaip.org:1873 The ip of hostname.dynaip.org changes at a random interval. Please help. Adamosn H

Your understanding is not correct, but similar functionality was re-implemented from scratch. You may consider Reading The Fine Manual at: http://stunnel.mirt.net/static/stunnel.html The relevant part is: protocol = proto application protocol to negotiate SSL currently supported: cifs, connect, imap, nntp, pop3, smtp protocolAuthentication = auth_type authentication type for protocol negotiations currently supported: basic, NTLM Currently authentication type only applies to 'connect' protocol. default: basic protocolHost = host:port destination address for protocol negotiations protocolPassword = password password for protocol negotiations protocolUsername = username username for protocol negotiations Best regards, Mike

Hi, I use Stunnel for some of my customers. However I tried it myself (after a while, and after a reinstall of windows) and I get this error. Can anyone tell me how to get it to work again? I get the same error when I run it as administrator, or when I change the port from 443 to 4430. 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Snagged 64 random bytes from C:/.rnd 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Wrote 1024 new random bytes to C:/.rnd 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: PRNG seeded successfully 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Certificate: stunnel.pem 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Certificate loaded 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Key file: stunnel.pem 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: Private key loaded 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5668]: SSL context initialized for service SQLServer 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG5[2828:5668]: stunnel 4.26 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8i 15 Sep 2008 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG5[2828:5668]: Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG5[2828:5672]: No limit detected for the number of clients 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5672]: FD 224 in non-blocking mode 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG7[2828:5672]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG3[2828:5672]: Error binding SQLServer to 127.0.0.1:31433 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG3[2828:5672]: bind: Permission denied (WSAEACCES) (10013) 2009.02.04 13:54:04 LOG3[2828:5672]: Server is down My stunnel.conf looks like this (actual IP address has been modified): ; Sample stunnel configuration file by Michal Trojnara 2002-2006 ; Some options used here may not be adequate for your particular configuration ; Certificate/key is needed in server mode and optional in client mode ; The default certificate is provided only for testing and should not ; be used in a production environment cert = stunnel.pem ;key = stunnel.pem ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ; Authentication stuff ;verify = 2 ; Don't forget to c_rehash CApath ;CApath = certs ; It's often easier to use CAfile ;CAfile = certs.pem ; Don't forget to c_rehash CRLpath ;CRLpath = crls ; Alternatively you can use CRLfile ;CRLfile = crls.pem ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = 7 ;output = stunnel.log ; Use it for client mode client = yes ; Service-level configuration [SQLServer] accept = 127.0.0.1:31433 connect = 85.15.135.121:443 ; In case of a proxy server, use: ;connect = 10.3.2.50:8080 ;protocol = connect ;protocolHost = 85.15.135.121:443

crl next update field functionality seems incorrect
by Steve Hoffman 04 Feb '09

04 Feb '09

Regarding this piece of code in verify.c: if(X509_cmp_current_time(next_update)<0) { s_log(LOG_WARNING, "Found CRL is expired - " "revoking all certificates until you get updated CRL"); X509_STORE_CTX_set_error(callback_ctx, X509_V_ERR_CRL_HAS_EXPIRED); X509_OBJECT_free_contents(&obj); return 0; /* reject connection */ } I don't believe this is correct functionality. The "next update" field is not an expiration of the CRL, but more of an indicator that you, as the holder of the CRL, should obtain a new one. Snippet from this link: http://www.netscape.ca/browser/netscape8/help/en/ssl_help.html#next_update About the "Next Update" Date The browser uses the CRLs it has available to check the validity of certificates issued by the corresponding CAs. If a certificate is listed as revoked, the browser won't accept it as evidence of identity. A CA typically publishes an updated CRL at regular intervals. Every CRL includes a date, specified in the Next Update field, by which the CA will publish the next update of that CRL. In general, if the date in the Next Update field is earlier than the current date, you should obtain the most recent version of the CRL. To view CRL information and set up automatic CRL updating, see Viewing and Managing CRLs. CAs are required to produce a new CRL by the Next Update date. However, the absence of the most recent CRL does not by itself invalidate a certificate. For this reason, if the most recent CRL is not available, a certificate may be validated even though the most recent CRL shows it as expired. Automatic CRL updating can help to avoid this situation. I'd like to suggest removing this check. Thanks, Steve

Fwd: Stunnel & Zimbra
by Allen 02 Feb '09

02 Feb '09

Hi folks, I'm reposting this from my email address on file, because it was initially rejected (I think because I sent it from my main business address, which is not the address I have listed with this group. My apologies. ------------ I've been using stunnel with Zimbra, on OS X Sever since last year and it's been working well (SSL tunnels should be seen and not heard ;-). I upgraded Zimbra yesterday to a new version, that apparently was supposed to fix its instability running on the OS X platform. However, the upgrade wound up breaking the mail server's ability to send email. From Zimbra's web client, it appears like mail is getting sent (there's a little green sent mail box that pops up right after you click on the send button). Mail never arrives at the client end. I can still receive mail into the Zimbra account when I send to it from my business or personal email account. I provisoned and reloaded posffix, etc., and still can't receive mail on the other end. No stunnel settings have changed since before the upgrade. Here are the stunnel-related file outputs: ----------------------------------------------------------------- root# cat /opt/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf client = yes foreground = no [smtps] accept = 5000 connect = server_name.x.y.com:465 (server name changed to protect the innocent ;-) ----------------------------------------------------------------- cat /opt/zimbra/conf/relay_password server_name.domain.com [email protected]:fakepassword --------------------------------------------- With the real usernames, password, domains, etc., those two (above) stunnel files worked perfectly well with stunnel, and sending mail was not a problem. That was --until I upgraded Zimbra. I realize that this is a stunnel forum and the Zimbra-related forum deals with all their issues. However, I'm wondering if somebody out there in stunnel land might have a light bulb going off regarding this issue. Perhaps there's something that I'm overlooking? Thanks! Allen

Identification Propagation patch using stunnel client certificates
by Christophe Nanteuil 02 Feb '09

02 Feb '09

Hello, NB : this patch is provided as alpha version : it handles only 1 request at a time for each administrative and ident servers. Why to use this patch ? This patch can be useful when : - you provide access to Internet via your stunnel server and when your legislation enforces you to keep logs of who connected where and when. In this case, you will have Squid logs filled with identification of stunnel clients in a very simple way : nothing to ask to the client as it uses automatically its certificate to fill in the identity fields. - you want to implement several profile access for your clients accessing your web proxy/server : as the proxy will ask ident request to stunnel, you can create filter groups to allow / denied access (with redirection to a page that you can customize) depending on stunnel answer : see filtergroups option of DansGuardian or acl options in squid. Patch to version : 4.26 Type : new feature Description : Identification Propagation using stunnel client certificates The patch proposes to extend the identification propagation provided by the directive 'EXEC=' to directive 'CONNECT=' when using client certificates. With EXEC directive, Subject name and Issuer Name of clients are put in environment variables, which allows the program to determine identity of the stunnel client. This patch adds an ident server functionality to stunnel, compliant with RFC 1413, to allow propagation of identification to remote hosts specified by the service directive 'CONNECT='. Additionnaly, this patch provides an admnistrative server "bound" to the Ident server : on the administrative socket (default port 127.0.0.1:790), you can request number of users currently connected and list them. How to use this patch ? You just have to add a 'identServer=yes' directive to services that you want to propagate identification. For example, you can use this patch when connecting to a DansGuardian web proxy (installed on proxy.example.com) with the option authplugin = '/etc/dansguardian/ authplugins/ident.conf' enabled in the configuration file (or when connecting to a Squid web proxy compiled with --enable-ident-lookups option), and the following stunnel configuration file (located in /etc/ssl/stunnel/stunnel-ident.conf) : ... [WEB] accept=8080 connect=proxy.example.com:8080 identServer=yes ... Stunnel will create a listening socket on 0.0.0.0:113 and answer requests initiated by DansGuardian. -- Christophe Nanteuil

Feature request: set environment variable for inetd-type program
by Michael Renner 27 Jan '09

27 Jan '09

Moin, I am not a programmer, I am a writer and user, so I have to ask kindly for a additional stunnel feature I need the ability to push some information from the stunnel client side to the server side. To be more concrete: a self written script that is called by stunnels 'exec' statement need some settings, e.g. username and password. My idea is to configure this in the client side stunnel.conf and pass this as a environment variable to this script. There is no chance to pack these stings in a client certificate, because everybody who is able to handle snoop/tcpdump will be able to read this. I imagine a configuration like this: client stunnel.conf [foo] accept = 127.0.0.1:1234 connect = 192.0.20.0:443 env = "SUSER=renner" env = "SPASS=geheim" server stunnel.conf [foo] accept = 192.0.20.0:443 exec = /opt/foo/script.sh env = yes My question to the developers: do you think this is a helpful feature, also for others? Greetings -- |Michael Renner E-mail: michael.renner(a)gmx.de | |D-81541 Munich Germany ICQ: #112280325 | |Germany Don't drink as root! ESC:wq

Use stunnel through firewall for home Web server?
by Bill Eldridge 25 Jan '09

25 Jan '09

I was interested in whether there's a simple way to have stunnel redirect traffic from a public Web browser/port to my home Web browser behind my DSL firewall (no ports opened/forwarded for incoming connections on the router, only outgoing-initiated) I scanned old posts but didn't find anything that quite fit - references are usually for people who want to get out from behind a firewall, not publish sites publicly from behind (i.e. externally initiated clicks)

Compilation problem
by fredzy padzy 21 Jan '09

21 Jan '09

Hi everyone I try to compile stunnel, but it fails. Actually, it tells me about a parse error inside signal.h, and i think it's a falsePositive. The configure works great and nothing look strange inside the configure.log. I also tried to googled those errors, but didn't find any clues.

So stunnel is the wrong tool if you have to use ftps. Please check http://www.stunnel.org/examples/ftp.html for more information about stunnel and ftp.

I do not think that this can work. SFTP is not just encrypted FTP traffic, but an entirely different protocol.

0x09 bytes in stunnel-4.26/src/Makefile.am
by Andrew Schulman 14 Jan '09

14 Jan '09

For some strange reason, there are five hex 09 bytes in stunnel-4.26/src/Makefile.am. This broke my Cygwin build: I remove the Windows-only stuff from this file for Cygwin, and diff captured the 0x09 characters that got removed, but then when I later tried to apply the patch, patch choked on them. It seems that each of these bytes should really be 0x0A. Strange. Andrew.

One problem I have found in doing this is that if socketpair(2) is used to create the file descriptor that will be connected to stunnel's stdio, then stunnel's libwrap checking is activated because it detects it to be a socket. Using socketpair is a nice way to turn a TCP client into one that connects via a two-way pipe with stunnel (because the client app doesn't have to special case the two file descriptors for stunnel's stdin and stdout when reading and writing.) Since a user (i.e. not a sysadmin) has no control over the libwrap settings in /etc, stunnel's libwrap check will always fail when used this way. In my opinion, stunnel should allow disabling of libwrap (and syslog too) via the config file (i.e. not just compile time options). This makes the "one connection" client usage you describe work better. Karl

Re: [stunnel-users] How do I do a one-time client connection?
by D. Richard Hipp 13 Jan '09

Perhaps I spoke too soon about having solved my own problem. Suppose I have a configuration file (test.conf) like this: client=yes connect=www.fossil-scm.org:443 Then if I run: stunnel test.conf And I type "GET / HTTP/1.0" on standard input, the webpage comes back on standard output. So far so good. But if I do: stunnel test.conf <test.in >test.out Where file test.in contains the "GET / HTTP/1.0" test, I get nothing back! I also tried this: cat test.in | stunnel test.conf And various combinations of this: openssl s_client -connect www.fossil-scm.org:443 <test.in In every case, when I type the GET line on standard input it works. When I redirect from a file it does not. Any hints on the cause of the very unexpected and very mysterious behavior? D. Richard Hipp drh(a)hwaci.com
