# vTunnel - TCP-based Linked Card Emulator
|
|
|
|
vTunnel can be used to add bridging over the internet to any existing OpenOS software that uses linked cards.
|
|
|
|
Despite originally being written for Minitel, vTunnel implements a fully-functional linked card emulator and a server that will run under most unix-likes (OpenBSD is currently somewhat flaky, Linux is recommended).
|
|
|
|
The protocol is documented [here](vtunnel-protocol.md)
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
### Server Requirements
|
|
|
|
- Some form of unix-like
|
|
- Lua 5.2 or 5.3
|
|
- Luasocket
|
|
|
|
### Client Installation
|
|
|
|
#### OPPM
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
oppm install vtunnel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Manual
|
|
|
|
1. Install vtunnel.lua to /etc/rc.d
|
|
2. Install interminitel.lua to /usr/lib
|
|
|
|
### Client setup
|
|
|
|
#### Creating a connection
|
|
Many connections can be configured. To add one:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rc vtunnel addpeer <server address> <server port>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Running the server
|
|
|
|
At present, all you need to do is run bridge.lua, for example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
lua53 bridge.lua [port] [timeout]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Client
|
|
|
|
vTunnel is invoked as follows:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rc vtunnel start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
vTunnel can also be configured to start automatically:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rc vtunnel enable
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There are several other commands available under `rc vtunnel`:
|
|
|
|
- settimer - allows you to configure how often vTunnel polls the TCP socket
|
|
- listpeers - shows which peers are configured, and the associated tunnel card addresses
|
|
- delpeer - deletes a peer from the configuration, as shown in listpeers
|
|
|
|
### Minitel configuration
|
|
|
|
1. Disable minitel with rc - `rc minitel disable`
|
|
2. Enable vtunnel with rc - `rc vtunnel enable`
|
|
3. Enable minitel with rc - `rc minitel enable`
|
|
|
|
This will ensure that Minitel starts later than vTunnel, allowing it to see the virtual tunnel component.
