Windows Client Source Code + Build Instructions

Post by adam » Mon Sep 06, 2010 5:06 pm

I can't find the Windows client source code anywhere and want to heavily modify it and build my own client.

Is this available anywhere at all?

Cheers.

If you're referring to the OpenVPN GUI, I believe that's maintained elsewhere and just bundled for convenience. The source should be available at the developer's site: http://openvpn.se/download.html

The OpenVPN source code is at: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/downloads.html

The OpenVPN GUI is being packaged with OpenVPN windows binaries starting with OpenVPN 2..2. IIRC, there is a current version in the 2.2-beta3.

If you'd like more information, feel free to ask in #openvpn-devel on Freenode.

that is SUPER OLD
I wish the site owner would remove that or make a note about it... but I have been unable to contact him

This is the new, to-be-official GUI: https://sourceforge.net/projects/openvpn-gui
