HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Stunnel

« on: March 02, 2008, 10:53:27 PM »

 
My Name is Rod Bodden.

I'm new to the forum, HFS and Stunnel.

I searched for Stunnel and read through some of the forum commentary.

I've been successful at setting up HFS, but unsuccessful with setting up Stunnel.

Part of the reason is when following the below instructions: Run “create_pem.bat”, I do not get a dialog box to enter whatever I like.


4. Delete the “stunnel.pem”, which contains a default server certificate and privatekey.
It is a bad idea to use the stunnel.pem file shipped with stunnel except for testing!
In order to produce pem-file with a unique secure private key / server certificate, open a text editor (e.g. notepad) and copy/paste the following entries:

openssl.exe req -new -x509 -days 3650 -nodes -config pem.conf -out stunnel.pem -keyout stunnel.pem

Save this file as “create_pem.bat” in the stunnel directory. Run “create_pem.bat”,
answer the questions in the dialog and enter whatever you like.


Can someone please help me.

Thanks!

Rod
