Hi all, It looks like OpenSUSE is tracking the new C implementation of fwknop so that it can be included when fwknop-2.0.0 is released: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=fwknop&project=home%3Ac0d3g33k%3Afwknop-c Thanks, --Mike |

LOL. I just noticed this message (a year after the fact). How funny. That was just me building some personal packages using OBS (Open Build Service) to make it easier to manage fwknop-c clients across my machines (a few home servers and some laptops). This was strictly for personal use, and the price for getting to use the OBS service freely was to do so publicly. This by no means implies an official OpenSUSE effort, as I'm sure folks have figured out by now. The fwknop server packages in particular need some work. As in: they build but since I don't use them locally they have not been tested - at all. The client, however, has been working fine. fwknop-c is ready for prime-time, I'd say. Now that fwknop is on git, it should be easier to track fwknop development to produce current snapshot packages. The old way - manually downloading archive files of the latest SVN snapshots from the Trac web interface - was quite painful. Now it should be easy to pull the git sources in via build scripts, making automatic packaging much more feasible. As fwknop 2.0 nears release (whenever that might be), it might be worth using OBS to easily produce "official" fwknop packages for a variety of platforms. As of todays wiki page (http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service), this includes: 21 base distributions on 6 architectures. Food for thought. Just sayin'.
