How to resolve DNS by stunnel?
by shiga＠smart-cast.co.jp 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hi, I'm facing DNS issues when connecting to a server using a dynamic IP address. I think stunnel refers to DNS at startup, so if the IP address changes in the middle, it will get a connection error. Can this be resolved with the "delay=on" option? I'm looking for a way to handle a dynamic IP address in stunnel. Thanks.

Session reuse problem
by Alen Loncaric 10 Sep '21

Hi guys, any reason my stunnel would not reuse sessions? 2021.09.09 13:14:00 LOG7[9]: TLS state (connect): before SSL initialization 2021.09.09 13:14:00 LOG6[8]: writesocket: Socket is closed

stunnel logfile and setuid/setgid
by Norbert Hanke 02 Sep '21

02 Sep '21

Hi, I'm new to this list and hope I don't raise a question that has been raised many times before. I searched the archive and couldn't find that discussed previously... I want to configure stunnel using setuid = nobody setgid = nobody while having it write its output to its own logfile, not using syslog, with output = /var/log/stunnel.log log = append syslog = no This works when user nobody has write-access to an existing logfile, or user nobody is allowed to create the file in the directory. Both is not a good idea: user nobody should not have write access there. I could limit potential damage by having a separate directory with such access to nobody, but that is still kind of wrong. Or I could create a separate user only for stunnel and give that user full access to a separate directory: that would be more secure, only a hijacked (hopefully not) stunnel could tamper with its own logfiles. Shouldn't stunnel create and/or open the logfile while it is still running as root, and only then switch to user nobody? Or is there an option that I did not see so far allowing for what I'm trying? Thanks for any help. Regards, Norbert

Stunnel 5.60 started via Stunnel TLS wrapper on Windows 10 machine doesn't seem to be working
by ling＠aliko.com 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

Hi, I am trying to get Stunnel 5.60 started automatically as a service. My stunnel.conf is stored under C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\config works fine if I run stunnel.exe manually from CMD or bring up the GUI and reload configuration. Now I would like it to start automatically after reboots. I tried running stunnel.exe -install which installs the Stunnel TLS wrapper service. Starting the service does not however do anything. The "Path to execute" it installs for the service is "C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\config" -service -install. I don't see anything in the log. I can see that the stunnel.exe process is running in task manager. But running netstat -ao shows that no port is being listened to by the PID. Tried removing my stunnel.conf file and the service will still starts but stunnel doesn't seem to be doing anything. What could be the problem?

Minor bugfix: parameter type
by Peter Pentchev 19 Aug '21

19 Aug '21

Hi, Thanks a lot for the continued development of stunnel! While checking whether my Debian packages can be built with the upcoming GCC 11, I found (or rather, GCC reported) a minor discrepancy in the type of the "hash" parameter to the crypt_DES() function in protocol.c. What do you think about the attached patch? It is also available at: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/stunnel/-/blob/master/debian/patches/06-des… Thanks again, and keep up the great work!

Is it possible to tunnel all tcp sessions of docker containers
by Yichun Ding 15 Aug '21

15 Aug '21

Hi, We are looking for the possibility to encrypt all the tcp sessions of containers between hosts with stunnel. So far I had no luck to come up with an iptables rule to route the packets to stunnel running on the host. We cannot change the container code as there are too many of them. Any advice would be appreciated! -yd

stunnel ignores chroot /etc/hosts
by kmx1818＠gmail.com 10 Aug '21

10 Aug '21

Hello all! On my localhost I've got a java 1.4 tls1.0 app/service running, which is hard-coded to http-call a soap service (tls1.0 level too) running on a remote host, say, svchost. Host resolution is "files" only (ie /etc/hosts) - no dns. The aim is to make this java client tls1.2-compliant. My solution is: 1/ configure svchost to be (an alias of) localhost - in global /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost svchost 2/ configure a chroot env for stunell with its own /etc/hosts 1.2.3.4 svchost (needless to say that to make it work I had to copy /etc's nsswitch.conf resolv.conf, a bunch of libraries, esp libnsl and nsl_files etc, and create another lot of /dev entries) I've tested it with the native getent command: $ getent hosts svchost 127.0.0.1 $ chroot /var/run/stunnel/chroot getent hosts svchost 1.2.3.4 3/ run stunnel in chroot mode: # /opt/csw/bin/stunnel -version stunnel 5.59 on sparc-sun-solaris2.10 platform Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.2u 20 Dec 2019 ; for tls1 clients client = yes sslVersion = TLSv1.2 delay = yes chroot = /var/run/stunnel/chroot [tls12] accept = localhost:80 connect = svchost:443 ; Alas, stunnel still resolves svchost from the global /etc/hosts - not from chroot's!: $ curl -kL http://svchost/service curl: (52) Empty reply from server ...and in /var/adm/messages: …LOG[4]: Service [tls12] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:47944 …LOG[4]: s_connect: connecting 127.0.0.1:443 …LOG[4]: s_connect: s_poll_wait 127.0.0.1:443: waiting 10 seconds …LOG[4]: s_connect: connect 127.0.0.1:443: Connection refused (146) …LOG[4]: No more addresses to connect I've tried foreground yes/no, truss/strace - nothing useful... What am I missing!? Thank you in advance!

Unexpected socket close while sending mail
by zfefm＠gmx.de 27 Jul '21

27 Jul '21

Hi, since several days I try to get stunnel working to add TLS1.2 or higher support to my outdated email client program (Applemail 4.6) as my service provider will stop supporting the old protocols soon. The protocol of stunnel looks as if the connection gets established well. But as soon I want to send a mail my mail program tries for 10-15s to send an then gives up. In the stunnel protocol (time stamp 16:54:22) the server seems to accept the connection, but about 10-15s later I get: Unexpected socket close (s_read) Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to TLS, 0 byte(s) sent to socket Any ideas what could be the problem? Thanks. conf and protocol attached. conf: setuid = nobody setgid = nogroup foreground = yes debug = 7 output = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.log [strato-pop3] client = yes verifyChain = yes accept =
