Hi I came across this thread, I know it's old...
http://mailing.unix.stunnel-users.narkive.com/QOEx4XQz/stunnel-users-log-rot...
And it says that's it's on the todo list, though I don't see anything indicating this on the list.
So is log rotation implemented for Windows and if so what is the config parameter?
Thanks

Good point. I must have accidentally deleted the TODO entry.
Some related features that are already implemented: - Reopening the log file controlled with GUI was implemented in stunnel 4.39. - The "log" option to control whether the log file is appended or overwritten was added in stunnel 5.00.

Hi I noticed that config value. But if I'm reading the doc correctly this means that the file will only be rotated if we restart stunnel? Does this means if we have a fairly stable system and no issues the log can grow forever? :)

There is a GUI option to reopen the log file. There are also plans (on the TODO list) to implement a commandline interface to control stunnel service. With this interface it would be possible to reopen stunnel logs with Task Scheduler.
Mike
But I think it would be nicer if the log rotated automatically...

Indeed, except it violates the KISS principle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle It is currently not a high priority issue to me. A sponsor could probably influence rearranging my priorities. 8-)
