Hello Experts,

I'm a newbie to stunnel.I have used the following configuration file stunnel.conf:

client=no
pid= /tmp/stunnel.pid
debug = 7
output = /usr/local/bin/stunnel.log
socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1
socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
[ telnet ]
accept = 9999
connect = 127.0.0.1:23

But when i telnet using following comand, the prompt never returns back.

#telnet 9999
