[Openvpn-devel] windows port

[James Y. <ji...@nt...>]

I discovered today that OpenVPN 1.2.1 builds and runs almost perfectly in
the Cygwin environment under windows.  Of course there's no tun or tap
device yet, but by running with --dev null and --ping 1, you can put OpenVPN
through many of its paces including crypto and UDP network connectivity.  I
was able to connect to a linux peer using SSL/TLS mode and send pings back
and forth.

So it looks like the OpenVPN code itself is ready to go on windows as soon
as we can get a tun or tap driver working.
