Hello list. I am new to stunnel and do have some problems to get it running. The server is a WinXPSP2 behind a router. The router has port forwarding enabled for port 9999 to the stunnel server (4.21). On the same box a vnc server is running on port 5900 which I like to tunnel. Firewall is opened. The netstat -a -n shows the server listening on the desired port (9999). My server config looks like that: cert = stunnel.pem ;key = stunnel.pem ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ; Workaround for Eudora bug ;options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS ; Authentication stuff ;verify = 2 ; Don't forget to c_rehash CApath ;CApath = certs ; It's often easier to use CAfile ;CAfile = certs.pem ; Don't forget to c_rehash CRLpath ;CRLpath = crls ; Alternatively you can use CRLfile ;CRLfile = crls.pem ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting ;debug = 7 ;output = stunnel.log ; Use it for client mode ;client = yes [pop3s] accept = 995 connect = 110 [imaps] accept = 993 connect = 143 [ssmtp] accept = 465 connect = 25 [VNC Server] accept = 9999 connect = 5900 The client side is a linux box with config setting: client = yes [VNC Server] accept = 5900 connect = 9999 I turned on debugging and stunnel.log seems to be okay - no error messages. But I am not able to get an connection. What am I doing wrong? Stefan
