    surface on Win32, but other platforms may also be affected.
  - Fixed removing the disabled taskbar icon.
  - Generated temporary DH parameters are used for configuration
    reload instead of the static defaults.

    static DH parameters were provided in the certificate file.
  - Unique initial DH parameters are distributed with each release.

    file and "-reopen" to reopen the log file of stunnel running
    as a Windows service (thanks to Marc McLaughlin).
  - Added session persistence based on negotiated TLS sessions.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_balancing_%28computing%29#Persistence

* New features
  - Several SMTP server protocol negotiation improvements.
  - Added UTF-8 byte order marks to stunnel.conf templates.
  - DH parameters are no longer generated by "make cert".

### stunnel 5.00 disables some features previously enabled by default.
### Users should review whether the new defaults are appropriate for their
### particular deployments.  Packages maintainers may consider prepending
### the old defaults for "fips" (if supported by their OpenSSL library),
### "pid" and "libwrap" to stunnel.conf during automated updates.

### Version 5.00, 2014.03.06, urgency: HIGH
* Security bugfixes
  - Added PRNG state update in fork threading (CVE-2014-0016).
* New global configuration file defaults
  - Default "fips" option value is now "no", as FIPS mode is only
    helpful for compliance, and never for actual security.
  - Default "pid" is now "", i.e. not to create a pid file at startup.
* New service-level configuration file defaults
  - Default "ciphers" updated to "HIGH:MEDIUM:+3DES:+DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2"
    due to AlFBPPS attack and bad performance of DH ciphersuites.
  - Default "libwrap" setting is now "no" to improve performance.
* New features
  - OpenSSL DLLs updated to version 1.0.1f.
  - zlib DLL updated to version 1.2.8.
  - autoconf scripts upgraded to version 2.69.

    which OpenSSL tasks are delegated to the current engine.
    Available tasks: ALL, RSA, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, DH, RAND, CIPHERS,
    DIGESTS, PKEY, PKEY_CRYPTO, PKEY_ASN1.
  - New service-level configuration file option "engineId" to select
    the engine by identifier, e.g. "engineId = capi".
  - New global configuration file option "log" to control whether to
    append (the default), or to overwrite log file while (re)opening.
  - Different taskbar icon colors to indicate the service state.
  - New global configuration file options "iconIdle", "iconActive",
    and "iconError" to select status icon on GUI taskbar.

  - Installation of a sample certificate was moved to a separate "cert"
    target in order to allow unattended (e.g. scripted) installations.
  - Reduced length of the logged thread identifier.  It is still based
    on the OS thread ID, and thus not unique over long periods of time.
  - Improved readability of error messages printed when stunnel refuses
    to start due to a critical error.
* Bugfixes
  - LD_PRELOAD Solaris compatibility bug fixed (thanks to Norm Jacobs).
  - CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS replaced with CRYPTO_num_locks() to improve binary

  - make install creates $(localstatedir)/stunnel.
    $(localstatedir)/stunnel/dev/zero is also created on Solaris.

    Some Win95 systems may need a free update from Microsoft.
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/
  - Default is *not* to use IPv6 '::' for accept and '::1' for
    connect.  For example to accept pop3s on IPv6 you could use:

* fixes for Windows platform

### Version 3.8p3, 2000.06.24  bri@stunnel.org:
* Compile time definitions for the following:
    --with-cert-dir
    --with-cert-file
    --with-pem-dir
    --enable-ssllib-cs
* use daemon() function instead of daemonize, if available
* fixed FreeBSD threads checking (patch from robertw@wojo.com)
* added -S flag, allowing you to choose which default verify
  sources to use
* relocated service name output logging until after log_open.
  (no longer outputs log info to inetd socket, causing bad SSL)
* -V flag now outputs the default values used by stunnel
* Removed DH param generation in Makefile.in
* Moved stunnel.pem to sample.pem to keep people from blindly using it
* Removed confusing stunnel.pem check from Makefile.

* UPGRADE NOTE: this version seriously changes several previous stunnel
  default behaviours.  There are no longer any default cert file/dirs
  compiled into stunnel, you must use the --with-cert-dir and
  --with-cert-file configure arguments to set these manually, if desired.
  Stunnel does not use the underlying ssl library defaults by default
  unless configured with --enable-ssllib-cs.  Note that these can always
  be enabled at run time with the -A,-a, and -S flags.
  Additionally, unless --with-pem-dir is specified at compile time,
  stunnel will default to looking for stunnel.pem in the current directory.

  (Special thanks to Brian Hatch for his feedback and support)
* Added pty.c based on a Public Domain code by Tatu Ylonen
