Reverse DNS lookup in stunnel log possible?
by mkanet＠yahoo.com 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

I currently have stunnel strip SSL from incoming https connections; which then passes the connections to a proxy before ultimately reaching my web server. So, the only easy way to see where incoming connections are coming from are in the stunnel log. Below, is a small example of what my stunnel log looks like (no, those arent the real IPs ). The information below would be much more useful to me if it included the DNS names in addition to their numeric IP. I currently have the latest Windows version of stunnel installed. It would be great to know how to get it to resolve DNS names as well in the log file; preferably without impeding general stunnel performance. I tried several debug levels; but none them did reverse DNS lookup. Hopefully someone know how to do this on a Windows stunnel setup. 2013.07.23 10:16:00 LOG5[10152:15136]: Service [stunnel-sslh] connected remote server from 24.12.152.129:58773 2013.07.23 10:16:00 LOG3[10152:15136]: SSL_read: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (10054) 2013.07.23 10:16:00 LOG5[10152:15136]: Connection reset: 272 byte(s) sent to SSL, 96 byte(s) sent to socket 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:4000]: Service [stunnel-sslh] accepted connection from 71.194.51.232:5535 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:4000]: connect_blocking: connected 24.12.152.129:7777 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:4000]: Service [stunnel-sslh] connected remote server from 24.12.152.129:58799 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:13212]: Service [stunnel-sslh] accepted connection from 71.194.51.232:5508 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:3348]: Service [stunnel-sslh] accepted connection from 71.194.51.232:5509 2013.07.23 10:17:53 LOG5[10152:2884]: Service [stunnel-sslh] accepted connection from 71.194.51.232:5519

Your log says `Cannot open log file: stunnel.log´. I don't how you invoke stunnel, so I don't know if the directory it's working in is writable, but you may try to specify an output file in a writable directory with an absolute path, e.g. output=C:/stunnel.log if C:\ is writable on your box.

I set the parameters to something more reasonable and I now see the keepalive packets. Thank you for your speedy response. Dave

keepalive and stunnel
by David H. Durgee 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

I am attempting to use stunnel to provide secure telnet access to a server on my system. As it is possible that a user may be idle for long period I have attempted to enable keepalive with stunnel. My stunnel conf files contain: socket = l:SO_KEEPALIVE=1 socket = r:SO_KEEPALIVE=1 on both the server and client side. But wireshark shows no keepalive packets being exchanged. I am using socat to provide a service on the LAN and connections using socat do show keepalive packets. But to get this working with socat I had to use the following: socat -d -d -L/var/lock/Port$PORT - TCP:127.0.0.1:$PORT,keepalive,keepcnt=10,keepidle=3,keepintvl=1 I had originally tried it with only the keepalive option, but it took adding the other three options for it to work. Perhaps this is particular to my linux mint 13 maya x64 system and keepalive works by itself on windows? Are the other three options supported in stunnel? Dave

What do I need to provide an SSL service and verify individual clients?
by John Long 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

Hi, I want to set up a service using stunnel as a server. I want only specific clients to be able to connect. Each client will have an SSL-enabled client app. I understand the part about needing to create a self-signed cert for the stunnel server. I don't understand what Stunnel will require from each client. Do I have to create CSRs for each client and sign them with my self-signed cert, or will the keys from additional standalone self-signed certs for each client be good enough on the client side as long as I have a cert that for each key in the certificate path of the server? Is it correct that verify=3 will make sure only clients that have keys matching the certs in the server cert path can connect? If a client with a key that I have no cert for tries to connect, what should happen? Will it time out or will there be an error that the key isn't valid? Thanks, /jl

Stunnel log file limit
by mehmet ozisik 18 Jul '13

18 Jul '13

Hi, I would like to ask some questions regarding stunnel logging which I could not find answer with googling. 1) what is the limit of stunnel log file (can we define this)? 2) If there is a limit, when the limit is reached does it remove the filled file and starts with the same name an empty log file? Regards Mehmet

Feature requests
by Death Master 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Can you implement some features? 1) Load balancing leastconn (like leastconn in haproxy) 2) UDT transport between stunnel instances(with several congestion controls which are already implemented for UDT) 3) SCTP transport between stunnel instances (if can be done in userspace) P.S. I'm using 400mbit WAN with 55-90ms latency+0-10%packet loss and on one end I can't control TCP settings at all (remote end is on OpenVZ VPS).

Line 51: "[pop3s]": Failed to initialize SSL
by Laura Fried 15 Jul '13

Beginning with Stunnel version 4.55 and continuing with 4.56 I can configure, make and make install without issue. But as soon as I try to start stunnel with the following command: /usr/local/bin/stunnel /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf I get the folllowing error message: Clients allowed=500 stunnel 4.56 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu platform Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.1 14 Mar 2012 Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 SSL:ENGINE,OCSP,FIPS Reading configuration from file /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf FIPS_mode_set: F06D065: error:0F06D065:common libcrypto routines:FIPS_mode_set:fips mode not supported Line 51: "[pop3s]": Failed to initialize SSL str_stats: 9 block(s), 163 data byte(s), 522 control byte(s) Any insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated. -- Laura J.
