I would guess that the key message in the log is: 0.0.0.0:443: Address already in use (98) Check for some other software (or another stunnel instance) already listening on port 443. -- Mike ___ stunnel-users mailing list --

[stunnel-users] Cannot establish tunnel

The message "Address already in use" indicates the core problem. Something *else* is already attached to port 6661. Either another instance of stunnel, or some system service. -- Mike ___ stunnel-users mailing list -- stunnel-users@stunnel.org To

[stunnel-users] [SPAM] SSL Termination Issue

2022-10-15 Thread Mike Spooner
2nd and third lines of the log suggest that the client end could not negotiate a compatible encryption method, and your stunnel config appears to only have GCM ciphers enabled. Do you have a very old client that can only do CBC mode encryption? -- Mike Spooner

[stunnel-users] CERT: Subject checks failed

2022-07-23 Thread Mike Spooner
Maybe failing because the cert is a *server* cert, not valid for verifying clients. Certs contain a set of flags that specify what they can be used for, might be worth checking whether your cert is valid for both verifying server identity *and* for verifying client identity. - Mike S

[stunnel-users] [SPAM] Is stunnel really compliant with RFC 2487 / RFC 3207 ?

Javier, On the logging front, stunnel logs for such a optional-STARTTLS MX-MX connection could still be useful, eg: when the parties cannot agree on a cipher spec, etc. -- Mike ___ stunnel-users mailing list -- stunnel-users@stunnel.org To

[stunnel-users] [SPAM] Is stunnel really compliant with RFC 2487 / RFC 3207 ?

2022-05-12 Thread Mike Spooner
Hi Javier, Becase the MTA-MTA case differs from the MUA-MSA case, what we really would need is another "protocol option" eg smtp-with-optional-starttls or perhaps a shorter name like smtp-mx. It wouldn't be a general solution to try and automatically distinguish solely by port-number.

[stunnel-users] Insecure file permissions on /etc/ssl/private.key

2021-11-29 Thread Mike Spooner
josé, The private-key file you have there is world-readable, which it most certainly should NOT be. Also, "www-data" is a group, not a user, so you MUST be very careful to make sure that ONLY the web-server software can run as a member of that group and that no other user or process can do

[stunnel-users] Office 365 connections stopped working

2021-10-26 Thread Mike Spooner
The fact that the log mentions an SSLv3 connection attempt, rather than something more modern, might well indicate what you suspect - I would be very surprised if the O365 email service still accepted SSLv3 connections. -- Mike S ___ stunnel-users

[stunnel-users] Help needed for email client

2021-06-15 Thread Mike Spooner
Hi Ian, SMTP port 587 is for SMTP-with-STARTTLS, which is good. However, port 993 is for IMAP-over-TLS, not IMAP-with-STARTTLS. You might have more luck with port 143 there (stunnel should do the STARTTLS bit for you, although it's always worth making sure). -- Mike

Pedantically, port 25 is only for mailserver-to-mailserver communication (even though it has often been abused for client-server mail-submission over the last 4 decades). Perhaps Google is being stricter now, and requires client SMTP connection on port 587 these days? -- Mike Spooner

[stunnel-users] CERT: Pre-verification error: unsupported certificate purpose

Hi, I could be way-off-base here, but from the log it looks like the CN of the certificate has an extra leading space. Don't know if that really matters, but is the kind of thing that upgraded openssl might have tightened-up on? -- Mike ___

Hi Anton, At a guess, this may be related to the recent hard-deprecation of TLS1.0 and TLS1.1 by many of the large service-providers (eg: Google, MS, et al). You might need to force TLS1.2 in stunnel.conf. -Mike ___ stunnel-users mailing list
