stunnel: Permissions problem on /opt/local/var/lib/stunnel directory

Reported by: rlh@… Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

Port: stunnel

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

stunnel 4.27 on i686-apple-darwin10.0.0 with OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009

The default stunnel.conf configuration attempts to start stunnel in a chroot jail at /opt/local/var/lib/stunnel Because the directory is owned by root, it's unable to do so. I've included an example of the default permissions and the correct ones.

The script that installs stunnel flags /opt/local/var/lib/stunnel as 

drwxrwx---  3 root  admin  102 Nov  4 21:39 stunnel/

when it really should be 

drwxrwx---  3 nobody  admin  102 Nov  4 21:39 stunnel/

I'm not sure if classifying this as a defect is correct, but it's pretty easy to fix in the installation script and will save the end user some headache with getting the application working correctly.
