OpenVPN and 1.0-BETA1
-
Oh, and one feature I'd like which I forgot: get the syslog messages regarding openvpn into a separate tab!
just a side note: would you believe me that I did most of the coding on a VT420 terminal? ;D
Not a problem. I'll work on this.
-
The only thing I had to fix manually is that $d_ovpnsrvdirty_path is defined nowhere.
See /etc/inc/globals.inc…it should be there. I know - maybe it's not at the right place there, but it worked.
-
I moved it to guiconfig.inc which houses all of the other dirty file locations.
-
_If you'd like to know my TODO-list, here it goes:
Fixes:
- check out the "restart-problem" you've told me._
Was addressed earlier in this thread, and in the patch.
- check out the "interface renumbering" bug and maybe look at the interface renumbering code in HEAD (thx @sullrich for the hint!), then decide whether to live with it or change it.
Still pending?
- find out the reason why TUN0 does not show up in the "Interfaces" menu.
This was addressed. There were modifications required for get_interface_list().
_Features (seem to be just webinterface issues):
- get OpenVPN in client mode working.
- get the "Client-specific configuration" working.
- get CRL lists working._
All of these are still outstanding as far as I know.
-
I moved it to guiconfig.inc which houses all of the other dirty file locations.
But this definition is needed by openvpn.inc. If openvpn.inc includes guiconfig.inc, wouldn't that make openvpn.inc require the user to authenticate? Cause openvpn.inc shouldn't require authentication, since it won't be called solely by the web interface, but also by the boot scripts.
-
Try it out and let me know. Thats how the rest of pfSense works.

WOW ;D
on 1.0-BETA1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT-2-5-06 the openvpn acting as a client is working for me. Thank you very much.kind regards,
-
So that leaves, what the interface renumbering bug in HEAD, right?
Looks like we may have OpenVPN in 1.0 yet. ;)
-
Yep let me backport it and post a testing image. Can you guys help me test this? It will involve deleting and recreating interfaces and ensuring that the rules and such follow the interfaces.
-
I'm game. I have a net4501 sitting here waiting to be abused, along with a WRAP coming in the mail, and a production box I bought from Hacom (good reference from around here!) with 3 gigabit interfaces. All of which I can do some testing on.
Bring it. ;)

No, it isn't. :S
Did you patch it? I tested it in an unpatched BETA1 and it screwed up the interfaces' configuration.

Yep, thats the thing we are speaking of that needs to be backported. When you mess with the optional interfaces and move them around then the rules end up on the wrong optional interfaces, etc.

WRAP showed up today, so I have two embedded's to play around with. The hard drive-based production box should be here any day now. Just waiting. :)
-
Sounds good. I'll get the code merged over tomorrow sometime in preperation for some serious weekend testing.
-
:o
<think>wow. it's like seeing an avalanche coming down…</think>
In the last few days I've been working until late in the evening at my workplace - too many systems which "wreaked havoc", so I've had no time to do anything.
It seems like everybody's already busy working on it. So, is there anywhere I can help out?
Maybe I'll seem to be doing quite slow comparing to all of you, since I've got only evenings, weekends and holidays to "play around".
I hope you won't loose your patience with me...About testing: how can I keep up with the work which has been done in the meantime? Is there any FAQ how to get the latest version? (I have never done anything with CVS)
I've already got the VMWare Developer's edition - if that helps to shorten the process...Marc
-
Well, my hard drive-based production firewall showed up yesterday, so yay! here. :)
I need to get that vmware version one too, but I don't run windows. Only OSX on my desktops and freebsd on my servers…
My impression is that for 1.0 we just need to hunt down any problems with the interface re-numbering, and then we're golden. 1.1 is going to be a real treat. ::)
-
Interface renumbering code was just commited. I'm pressing a new image now.
Here's the new testing image: http://www.pfsense.com/~sullrich/OPENVPN_AND_DHCPD_TESTING_EDITION/pfSense-Full-Update-1.0-BETA1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT-2-10-06.tgz
Please test OpenVPN and test DHCP server as its now running in a chroot and as a non-root user for enhanced security.

I must just be totally losing it. I'm sure I remember seeing somewhere on the site how to build an arbitrary-sized pfsense embedded image from the full install, and for the life of me I can't recall where. I have a 64MB flash for the WRAP, and 512MB for the soekris (I thought I would be able to install packages and have logs write out over NFS…oops)
Point me in the right direction? ???
-
Maybe this will help: http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=FlashHowTo
Also, you can edit /etc/platform and change it to pfSense and it will convert to a full install. However I haven't tested either of these lately.
-
No, unfortunately that wasn't what I was talking about. That's presuming you already have a flash image, adn want to resize it. What you gave us (I presume?) is a cd iso. What I need is the instructions to go from cd iso to flash. I'm starting to wonder if it was't something like "install to a hard drive, dd to a file, then resize that file…."
