Hi, someone could help me? I am using stunnel (4.07) as ssl client to do telnet to my router with ssl server (openssl 0.9.7d). Stunnel is configured in this way: ========================== client = yes debug=7 cert=clcert.pem [telnet] accept = 23 connect = 10.36.3.144:4433 ========================== My router's configuration is: ========================== -Verify 4 -cert cert.pem ========================== The exchange of packets: ========================== client sends=======> Client Hello server sends======> Server Hello,Certificate, Certificate Request,Server Hello Done client sends======> Certificate, Client Key Exchange, Certificate Verify, Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message server sends=====> Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message and then Application Data. After sending a number of Application Data by the server, client sends Encrypted Alert and closes the connection. Having debug on stunnel client I can see:

This client is now running using an updated library: libeay32.dll obtained compiling openssl-SNAP-20050304 that seemed to be the solution of the problem (after searching on Internet I deduce that). Not having solution to the problem, I know that my conclusion is not right. So if someone knows how to procede, please help me. Thanks&Regards Maddalena Pulcini
