[stunnel-users] Is there a way to specify certificate content in stunnel config

Use stunnel in inetd mode.  Execute a script (or better C program).  Copy the certificates for making the stunnel connection to a directory that is OK … then delete them immediately after stunnel starts.  Hack – but might be OK for what you are doing.

I am not sure why anyone would think it more secure to put the keys into the stunnel command than to just use them from a file … but I likely do not know enough about your application to make a judgement.

Hi,

I have a requirement where in i cannot specify the certificate and/or private key details as "files" to stunnel configuration, owing to the location and/or file system availability for stunnel to access them.

Is there a way to specify the actual certificate content in stunnel configuration (similar to other parameters like port numbers etc.,) so that the same can be leveraged.

Thanks

Hari
