Use stunnel in inetd mode.  Execute a script (or better C program).  Copy the 
certificates for making the stunnel connection to a directory that is OK … then 
delete them immediately after stunnel starts.  Hack – but might be OK for what 
you are doing.

 

I am not sure why anyone would think it more secure to put the keys into the 
stunnel command than to just use them from a file … but I likely do not know 
enough about your application to make a judgement.

Subject: [stunnel-users] Is there a way to specify certificate content in 
stunnel config

 

Hi,

 

I have a requirement where in i cannot specify the certificate and/or private 
key details as "files" to stunnel configuration, owing to the location and/or 
file system availability for stunnel to access them.

 

Is there a way to specify the actual certificate content in stunnel 
configuration (similar to other parameters like port numbers etc.,) so that the 
same can be leveraged.

 

Thanks

Hari
