certificate restored.
- Some compatibility issues with NTLM authentication fixed.

Version 4.16, 2006.08.31, urgency: MEDIUM:
* New features sponsored by Hewlett-Packard
- A new global option to control engine:
engineCtrl = <command>[:<parameter>]
- A new service-level option to select engine to read private key:
engineNum = <engine number>
- OCSP support:
ocsp = <URL>
* New features
- A new option to select version of SSL protocol:
sslVersion = all|SSLv2|SSLv3|TLSv1
- Visual Studio vc.mak by David Gillingham <dgillingham@gmail.com>.
- OS2 support by Paul Smedley (http://smedley.info)
* Bugfixes
- An ordinary user can install stunnel again.
- Compilation problem with --enable-dh fixed.
- Some minor compilation warnings fixed.
- Service-level CRL cert store implemented.
- GPF on protocol negotiations fixed.
- Problem detecting addrinfo() on Tru64 fixed.
- Default group is now detected by configure script.
- Check for maximum number of defined services added.
- OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() added to SSL initialization.
- configure script sections reordered to detect pthread library funcions.
- RFC 2487 autdoetection improved. High resolution s_poll_wait()
not currently supported by UCONTEXT threading.
- More precise description of cert directory file names (thx to Muhammad
Muquit).
* Other changes
- Maximum number of services increased from 64 to 256 when poll() is used.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

- Support for CIFS aka SMB protocol SSL negotiation.
* New features

<ken.Mattsen@roxio.com>).
- New -fd command line parameter to read configuration

nonblocking when it is supported.

* Bugfixes
- TCP wrappers code moved to CRIT_NTOA critical section
since it uses static inet_ntoa() result buffer.

mode.
- fdscanf groks lowercase protocol negotiation commands.

- Libwrap detection bug in ./configure script fixed.
- grp.h header detection fixed for NetBSD and possibly
other systems.
- Some other minor updates.
* New features sponsored by MAXIMUS http://www.maximus.com/
- New 'options' configuration option to setup
OpenSSL library hacks with SSL_CTX_set_options().
- 'service' option also changes the name for
TCP Wrappers access control in inetd mode.

version 3.8p3 was removed to simplify stunnel setup.
There are no built-in defaults for CApath and CAfile options.
- Private key file for a certificate can be kept in a separate
file. Default remains to keep it in the cert file.
- Manual page updated.
