Once someone connects, a separate stunnel should fork > leaving the listener bound on 993/tcp. Shouldn't I be seeing one extra child of stunnel per every imapd process? If I understand correctly, there should be one parent stunnel, spawning two children for each connection: one more stunnel to do the decryptiong magic, and one to exec the actual server to pipe the decrypted stream to. Am I right? Now I only see one stunnel process in "ps aux", and one imapd process. But I think that already this should be two stunnels and one imapd. -- Arcady Genkin Don't read everything you believe.
