Thanks Ludolf and Dmitry for replying. @Ludolf, I know what an IP adress is. It's just that it's not allowed by the host to connect on their IP. @Dmitry, I tried putting the SNI settings in the config file, but it didn't resolve our problem. This is whats in our stunnel log file: 2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Service [ SERVICENAME ] accepted connection from 'INTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: s_connect: connected 'EXTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Service [ SERVICENAME ] connected remote server from 'INTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Connection closed: 251 byte(s) sent to SSL, 188 byte(s) sent to socket The response from the host is: "403 Forbidden</h1> Request forbidden by administrative rules." Their support states it's because we are connecting to 'EXTERNAL-IP:PORT' and not 'SOMETHING.HOST.COM' . Thanks again, Colin

The support on the host we are trying to reach states to following:
It really sounds like the stunnel is not connecting to "something.host.com" but perhaps to the IP address behind it?
This sounds like they need SNI to be passed properly. Try adding SNI = something.host.com in your client section.
