I usually use stunnel with Powerpost to get ssl connection, but There are times that stunnel does not show active connections but the Powerpost works perfectly.
Does that mean I have not established an SSL connection or failure of the stunnel program?

Sounds like you haven't got a ssl connection going there.There was a recent post all about it here.Hope it helps. https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-sof...hlight=stunnel https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-gui...hlight=stunnel

I have read it. There is little mystery. It's easy configuration of both programs. The problem is that I do not see active connections sometimes, and other yes.Originally Posted by darkstate01
Sometimes I see it. I do not know what may be this but if I take off the stunnel, SSL connection does not work.
SSL connection apparently works because if It did not work out a error message. The only question is why not show me a few times
active connections and sometimes it shows, and if it does not show it to known if is an SSL connection.
When we use stunnel, are the connections in SSL mode although they are not shown as active on the program?
It's something rare.

I think its just a connection problem,stunnel is just a ssl wrapper of a none ssl program as you already know,Maybe yenc might need a setting tweak somewhere.
But if there is a problem I would not be posting right now through the port 443 (SSL), is that correct?

It should but you have to have put port 443 in the stunnel config part and NOT 563. But YENC would not work because you binded the program to "your computer" so a connection has to be made via your news server and by one of it's secure ports 443/563. So if you are not connected to one of those ports you wouldn't be able to post and wouldn't have a connection, you have to have SSL going to connect to those ports, so it's connected, so when you connect to your news server, in the stunnel log it will say connected and sometimes it won't say connected?. Re-install sTunnel and delete all files and re-setup, btw what OS ya using?

That's what I think. I can post via the xnews and powerpost by port 443 for example. I have the stunnel properly configured and working, but the application "run stunnel" sometimes does not show in the log open connections. I'm posting through port 443 with 4 connections in powerpost and the stunnel says me I have 0 active connections.
That's it a mystery.

yeah i don't know, maybe re-install will make it go away...dunno though.

Give Jbinup a try. It supports SSL uploading natively and works flawlessly.

I have got JbinUp but I dislike it. I prefer Powerpost. It works perfectly and better than JbinUp.
