I'm trying to set up OpenVPN on my Qube2, and it appears that the tun module wasn't built with the distributed kernel. I attempted to roll my own, but I've been out of the kernel-building game since I switched to Debian eons ago, and haven't had too much luck.
I'm running 2.4.27-10.something-or-other. Should I try the 2.6 kernel? The box is really just for playing around while I toy with making it into a NAS. And along those lines, I'm currently using it with the stock 6 gig drive that Cobalt shipped it with, and the transfer speeds (ftp/smb) are fairly iffy at roughly 1.5-2.0MB/s. I bumped the memory up to 64 megs, and it's mainly staying out of swap unless if I'm trying to do too much with it. Will throwing a more modern drive in it get me closer to 100bT speeds, or is it architecturally limited to what I'm getting now? hdparm has this to say: cobalt:~# hdparm -Tt /dev/hda /dev/hda: Timing cached reads: 80 MB in 2.00 seconds = 40.00 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 14 MB in 3.37 seconds = 4.15 MB/sec (Actually, looking at the load while transferring, it's hovering around 2, with proftpd and kjournald fightin' for top honors. I think that answers that, a bit..)
