Hello -- Are there some solid instructions for building stunnel on windows? I am using Microsoft VS 2015 and the 64-bit compilers -- This is the basic error I am running into, but could be that stunnel wont work with 64-bit?

I have a method with VS to compile Stunnel as 64-bit for use with Windows Are there any decent instructions for compiling it as 64-bit? Michael Curran | Systems Architect Office: 614-568-2285 Mobile: 614-403-6320 ConnectSolutions | 126 Post St. Ste. 400 | San Francisco, CA 94108

Assistance needed debugging Stunnel AWS EC2 Interface
by Donald F. Coffin 15 Nov '16

15 Nov '16

I am using stunnel as a proxy to support SoapUI mock services which are used to test an SSL based application. The SoapUI and stunnel proxy are running on an AWS Ubuntu 14.04 EC2 Instance communicating to a Tomcat server running on a second AWS Ubuntu 14.04 EC2 Instance. The target application uses a wildcard SSL Certificate and works successfully when accessed using a desktop browser (Chrome or Firefox). The issue I am encountering is that the stunnel connection logs a "SSL closed on SSL_read" message as soon as the cipher suite is negotiated as shown in the following stunnel.log: 2016.11.14 21:34:19

rpmbuild errors using stunnel.spec
by Wiest, Damian 07 Nov '16

07 Nov '16

I noticed a few issues with the stunnel.spec file included with the distribution that I wanted to report. I'm building on an Amazon Linux host. There appears to be a bad date entry in the changelog section, warning: bogus date in %changelog: Sun Jun 24 2000 Brian Hatch <bri(a)stunnel.org> Sunday is the 25th? The stunnel.init and stunnel.logrotate files are being installed from the rpmbuild/SOURCES/ directory and not rpmbuild/BUILD/stunnel-5.37/tools/.

Hello, I'm using Stunnel infront of a TCP/IP connection. When we receive bulk requests simultaneously it starts throwing exceptions. Is it something by design with Stunnel? -- Thanks & Regards, Lakshmi N Lanka

Use SNI
by Benjamin Hartwich 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

Hi, I´ve found the SNI parameter at stunnel, but it doesn´t work at my Ubuntu 16.04. My goal is, to use one dfn cert for the stunnel cert, which has 4 hostnames. This cert is on both servers. At the client server this cert works, because at the cert this is first hostname. At the second server I use the same cert, but it can´t be verified, because stunnel doesn´t recognize the correct hostname from the cert. Can anyone send me an example for a working SNI configuration? My Configs: Server one: client = yes cert = /etc/stunnel/cert.pem service = test debug = debug output = /var/log/stunnel4/stunnel.log foreground = no sslVersion = TLSv1 options = NO_SSLv3 options = NO_SSLv2 CAfile = /etc/ssl/web/chain.pem verify = 2 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 [app1] accept = localhost:8090 connect = 10.1.2.1:8085´ ----- Server 2 (fails): client = no cert = /etc/stunnel/cert.pem service = test debug = debug output = /var/log/stunnel4/stunnel.log sslVersion = TLSv1 options = NO_SSLv3 options = NO_SSLv2 foreground = no CAfile = /etc/ssl/web/chain.pem verify = 2 socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 [ajp] accept = 8085 connect = 127.0.0.1:8009 --- Error: 2016.10.31 15:01:40 LOG7[9]: SNI: no virtual services defined 2016.10.31 15:01:40 LOG4[9]: CERT: Pre-verification error: unsupported certificate purpose Regards, Benjamin Hartwich Referat Basisdienste Zentrum für Informationstechnologie und Medienmanagement Universität Passau Innstr. 33, 94032 Passau Telefon +49 (0)851/509-3285, Telefax +49 (0)851/509-1802 E-Mail: benjamin.hartwich(a)uni-passau.de

Running Stunnel 5.23 as multiple windows services
by David Jones 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hi, I'm trying to run stunnel as a windows service. I have used the stunnel -install and one service has successfully been setup. We now have a need to run a second instance of stunnel and so that we are able to stop/start this instance and not affect the connectivity of the other one we would like to install it as a separate service. On an older version of stunnel we simply named the stunnel.exe differently and it ran both services separately. But with 5.23 it is not allowing us to do so. Coming up the error "CreateService: error 1073: The specified service already exists". I've tried adding service = into the .conf file and also using service= on the command line for the install but nothing works. So what have I missed? Thanks David Config: Service = Stunnel_TLS_Generic CApath = ./ debug=7 #debug = 1 output = TLS_Generic.log # Use it for client mode client = yes # Service-level configuration [Service_Name] options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 sslVersion = TLSv1 accept = 20002 connect = URLtoserver:443

JHH re: Server down?
by John H Hoffmann | 847.998.6198 18 Oct '16

18 Oct '16

Hi .. I have been having spotty access to my main ISP email account the last two days so I upgraded to latest sTunnel v 5.36. I use sTunnel to help get emails from my ISP, Comcast, to load into an older version of GoldMine CRM. sTunnel has worked like a charm since 09/2013. In restarting sTunnel I immediately got a 'server down' error, log included below. Ideas? Suggestions?

Stunnel stops on Windows Server 2012
by Sam Ash 03 Oct '16

I've upgraded Stunnel from 5.35 to 5.36 on a server running windows server 2012. Since the upgrade it appears to stop running once i log out. I installed it as a service and set the service start to automatic. It has no problems running when someone is logged into the server. I'm not sure what i changed when i updated the version. Thanks
