We use it solely on 100s of our customer’s Unix computers. My suggestion (that not everyone agrees with) is to run it under inetd. Unix does not function without inetd (or related like xinetd). You don’t have to start or manage a server. It is dead reliable and when processes die it cleans it up and so forth. You connect to localhost on some port, have a configuration that directs it to the right place, off to the races. I am not sure what you mean by container hardening. When connecting to localhost it never touches the network – the TCP/IP goes directly to the TCP/IP stack on the local machine. I am really sure I don’t know what check out is :) If you give me more info I can probably be of more use.

Questions/comments about the 64-bit installer.
by Thomas Eifert 25 May '19

25 May '19

I just upgraded to Windows 10 pro x64. I attempted to install Stunnel version 5.55b1. I made a couple of basic observations that I'd like to pass along. 1. The installer attempts to install Stunnel in the windows "Program Files (x86) directory. I thought Stunnel is now a 64-bit program. As such, why does it attempt to install in that directory? 2. The new version of Stunnel doesn't seem to want to run under Windows 10. If I attempt to run it as an app, the program terminates when I attempt to establish a connection and pass traffic through it. Running it as a service, it passes a few dozen bytes of traffic, then stalls. Changing compatibility modes had little effect. 3. Stunnel version 5.49 runs beautifully under Win 10. I'll continue to use it until i find a newer version that works. Has anyone else had similar experience trying to use Stunnel under Win 10? If so, I'd like to know if you were able to resolve these issues.

I am observing the same behavior Mario is seeing with STunnel 5.54 on Windows Server 2012 R2 running as a client. In my case I am upgrading the client side from STunnel 5.01.

hostapd & stunnel
by Johannes Eckhardt 20 May '19

20 May '19

Hi, I'm running stunnel 5.39 on a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian 9 (stretch). The Pi has two network interfaces (eth0, wlan0) and I'm running an access point with hostapd. What I want to do is to route all traffic from my wifi-clients (connected via wlan0) through stunnel/socks. working iptables configuration to access the internet from eth0/wlan0: iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o wlan0 -m state --state \ RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i wlan0 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE; if add the following lines (from stunnel.org) local traffic on eth0 goes to the stunnel-server but my wireless clients can't access the internet anymore. I tried several configurations, but without success... # stunnel socks iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d TARGET-SERVER --dport 9080 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 9050 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9051 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 9050 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9051 # /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf [SOCKS Client Direct] client = yes PSKsecrets = secrets.txt accept = :::9050 connect = TARGET-SERVER:9080 [SOCKS Client Transparent IPv4] client = yes PSKsecrets = secrets.txt accept = 127.0.0.1:9051 connect = TARGET-SERVER:9080 protocol = socks Has anyone a solution for that?
