Jeremiah,

I set the debug level on a stunnel configuration to 7 to understand better where you are failing.  You have established 
good connection to stunnel, but stunnel cannot get to 127.0.0.1:10000. So is your application listening on 
127.0.0.1:10000?  Have you tried running netstat -an to establish that there is a process listening to the port?
