Jim,

Thanks again. Setup was pleasantly easy. I need to generate a certificate, then 
change the line in stunnel.conf "client=no" to "client=yes" ; and adding the 
lines for nntp & my usenet server as well to stunnel.conf.  Then Stunnel 
started right up. Running "chkconfig stunnel on" set Stunnel to start at system 
boot.
