Description Dave 2004-12-02 13:00:01 UTC
Stunnel is nice, except that sometimes a complicated network setup dictates that it needs to utilize an SSL-Proxy to get through a firewall.  Tan Swee Heng and Daniel Savard have created a patch that purports to allow this.  This is a request to have this patch added to the gentoo ebuild for stunnel.  It would make the Stunnel software a LOT more useful.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install stunnel on a system behind a draconian firewall (no NAT - DMZ proxying only)
2.  Try to create an stunnel VPN
3.  Doesn't connect

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
It would be nice if it would connect outbound using the SSL-proxy, which is 
what this patch does.
