Hi all,
I'am trying to encrypt a connection between two hosts using stunnel. ----- here is my config file ---- cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem chroot = /usr/local/var/lib/stunnel/ setuid = nobody setgid = nogroup pid = /stunnel.pid socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
debug = debug output = stunnel.log --- [rdps] accept = 1957 connect = remote_machine:3389
Avery think was working fine until I tried to telnet to the port 1957 on the machine running stunnel, the process stunnel was killed alone leaving this in /var/log/messages :
Dec 20 16:58:01 alpha kernel: [4930384.164316] stunnel[14540]: segfault at 8 ip b7629b61 sp b758d16c error 6 in libc-2.7.so[b75bd000+138000]
Does anybody have an idea about this problem,
thanks in advance,
Yassine
You need to have an IP address for the local connection and you need the client portion enabled as well.

Hi Scott,
I am not quite sure to understand your answer. Let me add some more info to make it clear onto how I get the segfault.:
A java applet (from web browser) is invoking the stunnel machine on the port 1957 stunnel then redirects the traffic into the remote_machine, so I only have the server stunnel portion installed (in the stunnel machine ).
when I run a telnet on any machine connected to the internet this way: telnet stunnel_machine 1957 the stunnel on the stunnel machine dies...with the error posted previously.

Right...so, here is a sample config, I will add emphasis on the parts you need to make sure you have.

Hi Scott,
Thank you for your reply, however I am still consistently 'killing' stunnel with a segfault. It is very simple to reproduce and it is consistent. I am using stunnel v.4.41 (and I am trying to secure an RDP connection -not an http one-) With or without the client mode, I get the segfault. I tried both cases.
To 'kill' stunnel, all I do is run the following from any machine: telnet stunnel_machine 1957
---> stunnel_machine [listens on 1957] ---> remote_machine [listens on 3389]
stunnel is configured to listen on port 1957 and forward into 3389 [rdps] accept = 1957 connect = machine2:3389
In production, my deployment environment will be: Java Applet (an rdp client, not http) ---> stunnel_machine [listens on 1957] ---> machine2 [listens on 3389]
The java applet is an RDP client (not http) which issues rdp calls that I want encrypted (hence stunnel)
Please advise, Thank you
Yassine
