| Summary | 0004581: iptables not available on FreeBSD | ||||
| Description | https://gnunet.org/book/export/html/1605 mentions exit/VPN possibly working on BSD, but unfortunately /usr/include/net/if_tun.h provides a lot less features than linux/if_tun.h. I added some ifdefs to correct the include and avoid some ioctls that do not exist on BSD, but the fact that gnunet-helper-exit tries to call "iptables" makes this feature currently not very portable to BSD. I suppose it is pointless to commit my patches that allow gnunet-helper-exit to compile if it can't possibly work. | ||||

Is it so hard to figure out how to translate the iptables invocations to corresponding FreeBSD incantations? |
|
|
It seems to me as if this bug would be solved once the rewrite of -dns-helper I was told about is done? |
|
|
Yes, but this would require a _major_ rewrite of gnunet-service-dns to basically turn it into a DNS server instead of a DNS query interceptor. |
|
|
meanwhile could I add pf and/or npf support? I can at least come up with this faster than rewriting gnunet-service-dns into a dns server. Part of the original issue has been worked around iirc (not compiling on FreeBSD) but someone would have to test it (me, as soon as replacement parts for my server arrive). The issue of this not working on *BSD remains. |
|
|
Sure, pf/npf support would be great. (Note: no relationship to Taler here, though). |
|
|
This file will also fail with system which do not provide the binary "ip", which also includes the majority of the BSD Operating Systems. |
|
|
As a sidenote for myself and reference - there seems to be a (slow) move to replace iptables with BPF: https://cilium.io/blog/2018/04/17/why-is-the-kernel-community-replacing-iptables/ |
