How to Configure Stunnel WindowsIn Feburary 2016 02,

Install Stunnel. Download the Windows binary file from Stunnel.org. Double-click on the executable 'stunnel-4.34-installer.exe' and accept the default values for installing Stunnel on your computer.
Copy a valid SSL public certificate to the directory 'C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel.' To make things more trouble-free, combine the public key and private key certificates into one .PEM file.
Modify the Stunnel configuration file. Open the file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\stunnel.conf' using a text editor such as Notepad. Modify the file to include the line 'cert = C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\
,' where
is the name of your certificate file. Modify the file to specify both the incoming (secure) port and the outgoing (insecure) ports. Label this section in brackets for clarity's sake. An example configuration looks like this:[https]accept = 443connect = 8080This configuration tells Stunnel to accept incoming connections on port 443 secured using the public key SSL certificate and redirect those connections to port 8080 on the local server without security.(See reference 1.)
Configure Stunnel to start automatically. Navigate to the Start menu, 'stunnel' folder and click on 'Service Install.' Stunnel will configure a Windows service called 'stunnel' to start automatically when the computer boots.
