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).

Setup

Server

Requirements

  • Some form of unix-like
  • Lua 5.2 or 5.3
  • Luasocket

Running the server

At present, all you need to do is run bridge.lua, for example:

lua53 bridge.lua

Client

OPPM

oppm install vtunnel

Manual

  1. Install vtunnel.lua to /usr/bin

Starting

vTunnel is invoked as follows:

vtunnel server_address server_port

This will create a virtual linked card component connected to server_address:server_port

Minitel configuration

  1. Disable minitel with rc - rc minitel disable
  2. Add the following to your .shrc:
vtunnel server_address server_port
rc minitel start
