I've installed STUNNEL, works great, etc. etc. etc.

Just one thing is a mystery ....

The daemon definitely runs with UID "stunnel" (as I set it up), but still somehow it is able to grab its own keys and cert, as well as the client cert, which I set with root-only access.

How is that possible? Does it buffer these things during startup (as root) before it sets UID/GID to stunnel, or am I missing something?
