Hello all!

many years ago (~2012 iirc) I successfully set up STunnel + HFS.
I then moved interstate, and since the server was in my house, obviously had to go off-line. Live got in the way, but now I am ready to revive my server! :D

I have no recollection of how I did it the last time. This guide:

http://www.rejetto.com/wiki/index.php?title=HFS:_Secure_your_server

is hard to follow and seems out-dated with the different software verions now available (OpenSSL, STunnel etc).

I have installed:
OpenSSL, version: full, x64, 1.1.0f
STunnel, 5.41, x86
and am using latest HFS 2.3K

If I start up STunnel, it's log window states that it has loaded everything correctly - however I do not know how to test if it is accepting any traffic
The same for HFS, it runs, but no idea if it is connecting to/thru STunnel

I assume somewhere I have missed a step, i.e. puttting in DNS details, domain name details etc.

Could anyone please help me? :(

If someone could help me get this to work, I'm willing to write a 'quick how-to' guide, in clear concise English, and using the latest dependant software (OpenSSL, STunnel etc).

You can also start by looking at this thread: Portable sHFS (HFS via STunnel) + GUI de configuration. ;)

The user dmatter has reported, that this package still works if you update HFS and Stunnel to the latest version (HFS v2.3kB299 and Stunnel v5.41).
HFS in Spanish (HFS en Español) / How to compile HFS (Tutorial)
» Currently taking a break, until HFS v2.4 get his stable version.
