Hello!

We're sorry, we do not want that because stunnel is meant (in our service) as a tool to bypass (even, but not only) blocks based on certificate replacement.

We need to fool the blocking system making it believe that it can decrypt the flow (actually it can decrypt stunnel tunnel). Then, an OpenVPN tunnel is established inside the stunnel one, and that's where the blocking system is fooled in most cases. Data security and integrity is therefore guaranteed by OpenVPN, not by stunnel.

If you need proper stunnel setup, then you do not suffer the aforementioned blocks type, so you can probably bypass completely stunnel and use OpenVPN in TCP and in TLS Crypt mode (maybe to port 443, in order to approximate very closely a TLS driven HTTPS connection). You will have even higher performance, of course. Also consider UDP, if you are not forced to use TCP.

Kind regards
