Hello stunnel'ers, First of all - im a newbie into openssl and stunnel. Im trying to stunnel between my own java socket server and client. The stunnel is established, but the server reads encrypted data on connect. Since I dont send anything, Im surprised to see encrypted data in the server log. Could someone please help. Ive managed to create a root certificate, a request and signing it, using: http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/ssl-cert-howto.php Thanks in advance. /nikolaj PS see configuration below: ----------------------------------------------- Packages (Fedora Core 6): openssl-devel-0.9.8b-15.fc6 openssl-0.9.8b-15.fc6 stunnel-4.15-2 ----------------------------------------------- The SERVER stunnel.conf: ; Certificate/key is needed in server mode CAfile = /root/ssl/cacert.pem cert = /root/ssl/key-cert.pem pid = /root/ssl/stunnel.pid ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = 7 foreground=yes #setuid = stunnel #setgid = stunnel [mystunnel] accept = ratata.cirque.dk:998 connect = 127.0.0.1:8200 ----------------------------------------------- The CLIENT stunnel.conf: ; Certificate/key is needed in server mode CAfile = /root/ssl/eclectica/cacert.pem pid = /root/ssl/eclectica/stunnel.pid ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = 7 foreground=yes ; enable client mode client = yes [mystunnel] accept = 127.0.0.1:998 connect = ratata.cirque.dk:8200 ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
