Tested on 22.05.a.20220328.0600.

1. Install stunnel on primary node
2. Force xmlrpc sync
   sync fails and the secondary node reports the following crash:

PHP ERROR: Type: 64, File: /usr/local/www/xmlrpc.php(147) : eval()'d code, Line: 1, Message: require_once(): Failed opening required '/usr/local/pkg/stunnel.inc' (include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/pfSense/include:/usr/local/pfSense/include/www:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal:/usr/local/pkg:/usr/local/www/classes:/usr/local/www/classes/Form:/usr/local/share/pear:/usr/local/share/openssl_x509_crl/') @ 2022-03-28 19:47:33

Installing stunnel on the secondary then forcing a sync then shows:
