[cobalt-users] re: How-to: Installing Stunnel and OpenSSL for Secure IMAP and POP3

["Brian Carpenter" <brian@xxxxxxxx>]

******************************************
I followed Brian's directions on installing OpenSSL and stunnel. Did this
first on our backup RaQ XTR. Worked perfectly.

Then went to do it on our production XTR.  Went perfectly until the last
step.  Tailing /var/log/messages shows the stunnel.pid file cannot be
created (permission denied). Permissions on /var/run/stunnel are 666.
Permissions on stunnel.pid are 666. Owner and group for the directory and
the file are both root/root.

Suggestions about what I'm doing wrong will be appreciated.

Hi Tom:

Try elevating permissions on the /var/run/stunnel directory. That should do
it.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Kind Regards,
Brian Carpenter
