VIA Releases Source To Custom WASTE Client

Posted by timothy on from the want-not dept.

daten writes "VIA has released the source code to their Padlock SL product, based on the Nullsoft WASTE code previously pulled by AOL. Padlock SL offers encrypted chat, instant messaging and file sharing over a private peer-to-peer network. Unlike WASTE, which is still under active development, the VIA client offers a graphical interface for both Windows and Linux users and simpler configuration."

  1. Trying to learn how to set up a VPN by KaiserZoze_860 · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I'm trying to set up a VPN at home mostly so I can get at South Park eps on my Tivo and so my girlfriend can access her documents from school. How difficult would it be to implement either WASTE or PADLOCK on a Mandrake 9.2 system? I know Mandrake has some RH based architecture...

    Please bear in mind in any advice that I'm a complete server n00b.
