New feature: openvpn

[vezza]

Do you plan to add support for openvpn in the future?

That's a great idea, but I'm longer able to work on the code for this project. You are most welcom to contribute improvements via the usual github means and I will approve them etc. If you would like to take on the project, please let me know!

Not sure if I'll be able to manage this project as I'm not a developer... anyway I may try. I feel more comfortable if a developer can review the commits as I don't fully understand all the code. On the other hand it is always possible to revert the commits so that encourage me to try to manage the project. At the moment I still haven't understood how you build the binaries... I can't find any docs explaining how to do a release starting from source code...

@vezza Sorry it's taken so long to reply.

Two community posts help a lot with getting going:

https://community.netgear.com/t5/DSL-Modems-Routers/Compiling-the-toolchain-for-the-DGND3700v2/m-p/1073898

https://community.netgear.com/t5/DSL-Modems-Routers/Compiling-the-stock-firmware-for-the-DGND3700v2/td-p/1074374

Some of the later steps in the second process are in the Makefile, but none of the first.

Hope that helps,

I've been able to build the toolchain but now I'm not able to build the firmware, I'm getting this error: /bin/ld: i386 architecture of input file `crc32.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output what I'm doing wrong?

I’m working away from home for the next ten days, but I will look at the issue as soon as I can on my return. What Virtual environment are you using the build in?

I set up a Linux container with Centos 6 x86_64 on top of a Fedora 28 x86_64 host. The toolchain is in: /opt/toolchains/uclibc-crosstools-gcc-4.4.2-1-with-ftw and: # ln -s /opt/toolchains/uclibc-crosstools-gcc-4.4.2-1-with-ftw /opt/toolchains/uclibc-crosstools-gcc-4.4.2-1 the kernel is in: /opt/toolchains/DGND3700v2_V1.1.00.26_WW_src_bak/ when I enter the: # make kernel I get the error: /bin/ld: i386 architecture of input file `crc32.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output

problem solved... I was missing libstdc++.i686 package. Now I'm facing another problem doing: # make source I'm getting a lot of messageslike this: tar: target/dev/tty: funzione "mknod" non riuscita: Operation not permitted .. tar: target/usr/dev/bcmadsl1: funzione "mknod" non riuscita: Operation not permitted tar: Uscita con stato di fallimento in base agli errori precedenti make[1]: [pre_fs] Error 2 make: [source] Error 2

Don't know what happened but I restarted lxc.service end the container and now I am able to get beyond... unfortunately now the # make source stops with the following error: Making all in libfuse-lite /usr/bin/mips-linux-uclibc-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../include/fuse-lite -g -O2 -Wall -MT libfuse_lite_la-fuse.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libfuse_lite_la-fuse.Tpo -c fuse.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/libfuse_lite_la-fuse.o ../libtool: line 1322: /usr/bin/mips-linux-uclibc-gcc: No such file or directory make[5]: [libfuse_lite_la-fuse.lo] Error 1 make[4]: [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: [all] Error 2 make[2]: [nvram] Error 1 make[1]: [apps] Error 2 make: [source] Error 2

keep working on that... ln -s /opt/toolchains/uclibc-crosstools-gcc-4.4.2-1/usr/bin/mips-linux-uclibc-gcc /usr/bin/mips-linux-uclibc-gcc bypassed the problem and building is now proceeding... anyway stopped again by: apps: make radvd-1.1 /bin/sh: /work/Platform/DG834GV_26/code/projects/DG834_V4/Neutral2/Source/apps/radvd-1.1/missing: No such file or directory unfortunately installing radvd package doesn't make any difference so I'm now stuck on that...

[vezza]

It seems that glibc-headers package is missing but, after installing it, the command # make source gives the same output: apps: make radvd-1.1 In file included from log.c:17: ./includes.h:99:22: error: ifaddrs.h: No such file or directory

Hi, sorry, been away from this stuff for a while. Are you compiling using a 64bit or 32bit host for compilation, I have a vague memory that, for some reason, the 64 bit host cross compiler fails in this way, very bizarre. The only solution I found was to create a 32 bit host and cross compile from there.
