Hi Anmol, There are two ways to build OpenVPN on Windows. The older method is to use MinGW/Msys. Afaik all you need to know is documented in the "domake-win" script. The newer method uses Visual Studio 2008+ tools and is documented here: <https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/BuildingOnWindows> These two buildsystems are entirely independent: if you're using the MinGW method you won't need Visual Studio for anything, and vice versa. -- Samuli Seppänen Community Manager OpenVPN Technologies, Inc irc freenode net: mattock
