Hi all,
The (hopefully) final preview of the OpenVPN 2.2-rc installer for
Windows is available here:
<http://build.openvpn.net/downloads/releases/openvpn-2.2-rc-install-preview-5.exe>
The main reason for this preview installer is our use of the new,
relatively untested Python-based buildsystem which uses VS 2008 tools.
Note that the new buildsystem is not replacing the old autotools-based
one. This installer and the included binaries have been tested on the
following platforms:
- Windows XP 32-bit
- Windows XP 64-bit
- Windows 7 64-bit
The plan is to get James to sign the installer during today's IRC
meeting (#openvpn-devel at irc.freenode.net) at 18:00 UTC. If you want
help make sure that 2.2-rc is a solid release, please test the installer
and let us know if there are any issues - or if it works perfectly.
just FYI: this installers runs on Windows 2000 (grin), if you choose to
not install the TAP-Win32 driver. the executables work, but OpenVPN
refuses to start as the tap-win32 driver needs to be version 9.7 and I
only have 9.6 - is this new version *really* necessary? what is new in it?
Tomorrow I will test it on a Windows XP VM (which I don't have here
right now) and on Win7 64bit.
cheers,
JJK
