stunnel

[astropoint]

localhost:9000 is for normal twofo

[sizzler]

It doesn't seem to work for me, is it just localhost:9000 in the address setup on hubs?

I've got stunnel in the system tray, which TCP port do we use?

HELP! is there any advantage in doing this, or can i still connect via SOCKS5?

[astropoint]

Twofo is currently donw due to maintanience. No ETA on when it will be back up. The test hub is running if you want to connect to that - hub.twofo.co.uk for off cmapus or socks5 and localhost:8000 with the latest copies of stunnel.
stunnel is a much mroe reliable method of connection that socks5 as the ssl server should go down and should always be accesible

I need some help getting it to work on OSX. I've installed and configured Darwine, and downloaded and extracted the stunnel.rar file from the link, and installed x11, but although applications like notepad work fine, every time I try and run the stunnel.exe file it comes up with an error message saying "stunnel.exe has exited with an error, have a look at the log file." Unfortunately the log file is blank so I have no idea what's wrong! Has anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks

You might be able to get a proper version of stunnel for OS X if you're lucky. It's available for Linux and other similar OSs. Alternately, if you can get valknut running on OS X, it has inbuilt support for SSL so you might be able to follow the Linux instructions.

hi. i'm hoping somebody can help. i would read the guide on the wiki if i knew what the wiki was.... anyway, here's the deal: i've downloaded stunnel, and i run it before opening dc++. i have changed my settings to active and inserted the correct IP address. i have changed the hub to localhost:9000 and localhost:8000 (as i have seen both recommended) but nothing works. i still get the message that i have been rejected by the target machine. i even tried turning off all firewall protection and this had no effect. does anyone know what i could be doing wrong? any help is greatly appreciated. kt.

Not sure what's going on with it at the moment. Quite a few people are saying that they can't connect and we don't know why (yet)

ok, thanks a lot, i'll check back

[Tsenister]

yeh i cant get on either sucks balls.......................

[astropoint]

Are you able to connect now?

[God]

should work now kt, tneister. make sure you restart the stunnel client

[echelon]

kt if you dont know what the wiki is then you havent downloaded astropoint's version of stunnel have u? Which could very well be another reason why you don't get anything when connecting to localhost:8000 and localhost:9000..

i just tried again and no luck. i didn't download astropoint's version, no. a friend told me to go to the stunnel homepage and download the stunnel-install.exe file. that seemed to download stunnel just fine, and i can currently run it no problem. i did try opening the .rar file astropoint generously offered, by my computer did not know how to open it, and it is not a file extension i am familiar with, so i didn't know what it ought to open with.

Get the zip file instead (and tell your friend that he/she is an idiot - the one from the stunnel home page isn't set up for using twofo)

Extract the files and run stunnel.exe Then connect DC++ to localhost:8000

thank you very much, it's now finally working. a side note though: why would i tell my friend that he's an idiot because he made a mistake while trying to help me with the information he had? i appreciate your help, but that's simply rude of you to suggest.
