Hi Guys I would like to set up stunnel in a three tier environment, i.e. instead of just having a client and a server, I have a client, midware and server. I tried doing this: On the client: [VNC on TestMachine] accept = 9000 connect = 192.168.100.12:9000 192.168.100.12 is the "mid-ware" machine: On this "mid-ware" machine: [VNC on TestMachine] accept = 9000 connect = 192.168.100.16:9000 192.168.100.16 is the destination: Then on the destination: [VNC] accept = 9000 connect = 192.168.100.16:5900 The only machine with client=yes is the client and they all use the same key. If I change the settings on the client to point directly to the destination (i.e. using only two machines), it works, but with three machines there seems to be a problem Any ideas?
