Description

(Full Text)

Delay dns lookups until connect time (run-time option)

Author Comments



We are using stunnel on our users' laptops such that when stunnel starts up as
a daemon, the server it connects to may not be resolvable. This causes stunnel
to exit. I've made a patch to add a new option - '-y' which causes the lookup
of the remote address to be delayed until connect time.
 
Comments, please?
