No, I have fixed it to build using locally installed Visual Studio 2017 
Community Edition.

 

It really wasn't much trouble. Somebody just needed to wipe the dust off it and 
fix some things that got out of sync as OpenVPN development continued over 
years.

 

I am preparing separate patches for separate tasks that were done at 
https://github.com/Amebis/openvpn. After I am done testing, I would like to 
contribute them here the official way. Since I'm new here, I might need some 
guidance though.

 

Best regards,

Simon

Hi!

It's me again - author of the eduVPN client for Windows. This time I have a
new problem. And, a solution I'd like to share with OpenVPN community.

I am considering bundling openvpn.exe, openvpnserv.exe, and standard TAP
drivers with eduVPN client to allow some degree of independence from stock
OpenVPN installations.

However, our version of openvpnserv.exe should have some modifications
(different named pipe, different registry key) to avoid collision with stock
OpenVPN installation. But that's our long term goal.

Unfortunately, maintaining a mingw build environment for our own OpenVPN
binaries is an overkill. Therefore, in the first stage, I have updated the
Microsoft Visual Studio C++ project files to be able to compile
openvpnserv.exe again:
- Project files were updated to Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2017 Community
Edition.
- Some minor updates were made to .h/.c files to compile using MSVC again.
- Support for x64 platform was added.
- All MSVC warnings were addressed and fixed.

Can I deliver the patches for above?

Best regards,
Simon Rozman
