I used stunnel about 5 years ago and now I want to use it again, but my notes
are terrible and I'm having trouble getting started.

I want to create a connection between Windows computer on port 3389. The
"client" will be some remote Windows computer, perhaps at someone's home office.
The "server" will be a Windows workstation at the office.

I've installed stunnel 5.70 on a Windows 10 workstation at the office, hostname
COMMONW10. I'm at a loss creating the config file on this machine. I have:

[COMMONW10]
;client = yes
accept = 3389
;connect = ???:xxxx
CAfile = stunnel.pem

The stunnel.pem was create when I installed stunnel. I have no idea what the
'connect' line should have. When I run stunnel (clicking on desktop icon) I get:

[.] Configuration successful
[ ] Deallocating deployed section defaults
[ ] Binding service [COMMONW10]
[ ] Listening file descriptor created (FD=724)
[ ] Setting accept socket options (FD=724)
[ ] Option SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE set on accept socket
[.] Binding service [COMMONW10] to 127.0.0.1:3389: Permission denied 
(WSAEACCES) (10013)
[!] Binding service [COMMONW10] failed
[ ] Unbinding service [COMMONW10]
[ ] Service [COMMONW10] closed
[ ] Deallocating deployed section defaults
[ ] Deallocating section [COMMONW10]
[ ] Initializing inetd mode configuration
[ ] Running on Windows 6.2

Server is down

I'm assuming the "Permission denied" is because Remote Desktop is already 
listening on
3389. So, I'm stuck and feeling quite ignorant!

Help appreciated.
