hi dev list,
someone asked me this question: how can one roll their own Windows
OpenVPN installer, including a signed TAP driver? There's no need to
rebuild OpenVPN or the TAP driver, but they do need to include other
things, such as certificates, config files etc.
Is there a way to repackage the existing TAP driver? are there
instructions for that?
TIA,
JJK
Hi,
I meant to answer this earlier, but then apparently forgot. The
tap-windows installer is simply embedded into the main OpenVPN
installer, so the pre-existing, signed tap-windows6 driver can be reused
as-is. An OpenVPN installer can be generated in the openvpn-build
cross-compile environment:
<https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-build>
Usage of openvpn-build is pretty well documented on Trac:
<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/BuildingUsingGenericBuildsystem>
On this page you can find automated cross-compile environment setup
scripts which work for Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04:
<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/SettingUpGenericBuildsystem>
It is also possible to generate a new installer without actually
building anything. The challenge is that the NSI install script
(openvpn.nsi) in openvpn-build depends on a number of variables set
during the build process, and on a certain directory structure. So it is
generally easier just to rebuild everything.
