Dear all -

I am trying to set up an stunnel connection on an Ubuntu Dapper box. This system seems to give me (stunnel -V) :

stunnel 3.26 on i486-pc-linux-gnu PTHREAD+LIBWRAP with OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005

and no matter where I look. I cannot seem to find an option to specify a config file when starting stunnel. Unfortunately, the instructions which I have received for setting up my (Direct Connect) client, contain such a config file which is supposed to be needed. It contains the following:

client = yes delay = yes output = stunnel.log debug = notice pid = stunnel.pid

[DC Server] connect = server.address.org:AAAAA accept = 127.0.0.1:BBBBB

where of course the AAAA and BBBB are port numbers.

Now I wonder if there is any way to make my stunnel version function in the specified way without the config file? Or is there some alternative way to specify this kind of config?

Any suggestion would be much appreciated!

Best regards,

Erik
