Hi Stunnel users,

Any ideas why I get a “server down” message”?  Below is the conf file:

;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

; **************************************************************************

; * Global options *

; ************************************************************************** ;

; Debugging stuff (may useful for troubleshooting)

debug = 7

output = stunnel.log

;Disable FIPS mode to allow non-approved protocols and algorithms

fips = no

;**************************************************************************

; * Service defaults may also be specified in individual service sections *

; **************************************************************************

; Disable support for insecure SSLv2 protocol

options = NO_SSLv2

key = stunnel.pem

cert = stunnel.pem

client = yes

accept = 5001

connect = XXXXXXXXXXX.com:6443

TIMEOUTclose = 0

TIMEOUTconnect = 200

TIMEOUTidle = 86400

;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

HERE IS THE LOG WINDOW MESSAGE:
