[Openvpn-devel] [PATCH] Do some file/directory tests before really starting openvpn

OpenVPN can handle over 30 different files and directories, and it is easy to misconfigure some of them. In many situations OpenVPN will even start running, even with a wrong file path or without the proper permissions, and then it will complain much later on. In some cases the error being seen

[Openvpn-devel] [PATCH] RFC: Improve file checking during start-up

From: David Sommerseth The following patch has been laying in my repository for some time, unsure why it's been there for so long. I can't see nor recall if I posted it to this -devel list either. If there are things I should have fixed up before re-posting it (if

[Openvpn-devel] [PATCH] Fix bug after removing Linux 2.2 support

From: David Sommerseth In commit ce637abdafdc19547fc97192033a4d1703ecaf23 the Linux 2.2 support was removed. When this happened an extra error check was avoided which would normally kicked in if the tun/tap device would not be available. Instead the following line

I am *VERY* impressed from cygwin jump, I must admit I have not kept track on this project for a long time! But now it is up to date with fully operational native windows tools. I've done some testing, and it looks like ./configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 or i686-w64-mingw will actually work! I

Re: [Openvpn-devel] Topics for today's meeting

I hate CMake, it is way too complex, these guys re-invented the wheel with no decent reuse of any methodology / language that existed before. If we take SCons as another example, it took python and used it to do build... So if you are python developer most probably you know how to SCons. Also,

Correction! cygwin provides mingw-w64 now!!! Also recent autoconf/automake/libtool. So we can also cross compile using mingw. 2011/11/24 Alon Bar-Lev : > Hello, > > I won't participate in sync meeting don't have the time. > Anyway, for windows build. > I already provide

Re: [Openvpn-devel] Topics for today's meeting

Just to put in my 2cents on the build options: there is a tool that supports all of those environments (gmake, cygwin, mingw, nmake, visual studio, eclipse, ), and that's CMake. It's widely used, and has a pretty good track record. It can also support automated test environments and

Re: [Openvpn-devel] Topics for today's meeting

Hello, I won't participate in sync meeting don't have the time. Anyway, for windows build. I already provide binaries for OpenVPN using mingw-w64 project, and it works fine! I use mingw-w64 for both win32 and win64 binaries, much better than old mingw project, as mingw-w64 is maintained! You
