RE: [Openvpn-users] WinCE/PPC; worthwhile to suport? possible?

Well, for what it's worth (if anyone's interested), there appears to be two
obstacles:

*  the existing TAP driver uses WDM functionality in addition to NDIS.  The
WDM provides the ioctl interface to user mode.  CE, however, is not WDM, so
there may be appreciable work in creating/emulating the WDM stuff.
*  perhaps more problemattic is that the existing win32 implementation uses
overlapped IO.  CE doesn't do overlapped IO, so there will be some rework on
the user-mode side too.

I probably should move this thread to the devel mailing list.  I really
would like to get this to work, so I'll give it a couple more days effort.
Doesn't look like a straightforward port job though....
