Verify = 4 Fails Yet Again
by Thomas Eifert 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

I've just encountered another situation in which verify = 4 fails on a seemingly valid certificate. Since I've previously posted details regarding this issue, I'm only going to post the certificate here. This is the 3rd certificate I've run across in the past 6 months that fails to verify. Can all 3 of the certificates be faulty, or is there an issue with Stunnel or OpenSSL here?

Stunnel Service as other user
by Florian Götz 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi Stunnel users, if I use xinetd to start a service I got the possibility to start the service with a dedicated user. For example: service fex { socket_type = stream wait = no type = unlisted protocol = tcp bind = 123.12.1.12 port = 80 cps = 10 2 * user = fex groups = yes server = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv nice = 0 disable = no } I got some kind of webserver (not apache, nginx etc) that needs to be started with xinetd (the example above). This server should get a SSL tunnel. If I use Stunnel in daemon mode (without jails/chroot) and define a service like this: [https] accept = 123.12.1.12:443 exec = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv execargs = fexsrv stunnel TIMEOUTclose = 2 Everything works fine, except that the server now runs as root. Is there a possibility to set a user for a service? Best regards Florian Götz -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Florian Götz ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Inf.

Username and Password in Clear Text
by Peter K. O'Connor 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi, I am using stunnel 4.56 Windows verison. I thought the username and password will *only* be sent to SERVER2, *after* the SSL handshake, with each request. However, the truth is that the Proxy-Authorization header is attached to the request to SERVER1 "CONNECT SERVER2:433 HTTP/1.1", as well. So SERVER1 can see username and password. It is not necessary and safe. Am I missing anything here? Regards, Peter [stunnel] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:8080 connect = SERVER1:3128 protocol = connect protocolHost = SERVER2:443 protocolUsername = username protocolPassword = password

Assume I have already an *.pem cert (for SMTP over STARTTLS transfer). Where (in whcih directory) should I put this cert file?

Which X.509 certificate types (.crt, .pem, .der .p7c) possible for stunnel and how to import them?
by Ben Stover 18 Oct '13

18 Oct '13

Which X.509 certificate types (e.g. .crt, .pem, .der .p7c) are possible for stunnel? Assume I have got such a certificate as separate file (and not retrieved by OpenSSL). How do I import it into stunnel? Do I have to just copy it into (which ?) directory? Does the certifcate file name have to have a certain pattern? Or is stunnel smart enough to read and analyze the content independently from filename? Thank you Ben

How to setup most detailed error log (for one service?
by Ben Stover 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

currently I have specified in *.conf file debug = 7 Is this the most detailed log output possible? I miss somehow the transfer protocol lines (what is sent and what received) How do I get this? Is it possible to setup debug = 3 as global variable and to define debug = 7 for just ONE particular service? Ben

stunnel server communicating external client IP addresses through to a TCP server for logging purposes
by Simner, John 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

Hi, We have recently used stunnel on the phone as a server to encrypt the communication between an external client and a TCP server on the phone. There is a requirement for the phone to log every external client access. Is there any way for stunnel to include the IP address of the external client when setting up an new TCP connection to the local TCP server? Thank you for your assistance and I look forward to your responses. Thanks.. John John Simner BSc(Hons) MSc CEng. MIET Software Engineer Unify Enterprise Communications Ltd.

How to get the remote mail server certificate before/at first connect?
by Ben Stover 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

When I connect from my local mail client (e.g. Thunderbird) the first time (!) with a remote mail server through STARTTLS for a SMTP session then at first a server certificate is delivered. On the Thunderbird email client side a popup appears which prompts me to confirm the remote server certificate. Only AFTER this confirmation I am able to send email through this STARTTLS SMTP connection. Ok. Now lets switch to another scenario where a non-default email client (=NOT Thunderbird) want to send emails through stunnel to the remote mail server. Everything is setup in stunnel.conf and propriatary email client. But how do I get the remote server certificate (for stunnel)? Is there an option in stunnel.conf to receive and auto-accept the delivered server certificate at first? Where is it stored? Can I extract certificate from Thunderbird and import it to stunnel? Ben

Re: [stunnel-users] EXTERNAL: How to setup stunnel für SMTP over STARTTL S (and not pure SSL)?
by Bucci, David G 16 Oct '13

16 Oct '13

The protocol directive determines what Stunnel does during the connection setup. "protocol = smtp" tells Stunnel to use STARTTLS semantics for the connection to the server, as described in RFC2487 (similarly to how "protocol = imap" tells it to use STARTTLS for IMAP, per RFC 2595). -----Original Message----- From: Ben Stover [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2013 11:08 AM To: Stunnel Users Cc: Bucci, David G Subject: RE: EXTERNAL: How to setup stunnel für SMTP over STARTTL S (and not pure SSL)? Sorry, I went to the webpage with the link you mentioned. There I searched for STARTTLS but NO (!) occurence was found. What does protocol (here = smtp) to do with the security handshare type (here = STARTTLS).
