Does SoftEther work on Linux?
I used to run SoftEther on WinXP Home Edition. I would say around 2005-2006 it would connect to any kind of internet (including corporate networks) and I was able to access the Internet for my personal use. But since about then it has stopped working on Win XP. I have tried downloading SoftEther from SourceForge.net and installing the latest version which I believe is 3. But when I do this I just get an error message that says the server cannot be reached. At the same time it seems to detect any other version of Linux just fine and works with them just fine. Anyone know what I am doing wrong here?
Somewhere in the last couple of months I upgraded my WinXP to Win7 Pro. So I installed SoftEther from sourceforge. After restarting the PC I was able to connect to internet just fine. But then after 2-3 days my problem recurred. What was strange is that I did not have this problem when I was running Windows XP. I am not sure if it was a configuration issue in my setup or if it was just Windows 7.
How to run SoftEther on Linux?
How to run Windows RDP client to connect the VirtualBox on Linux with SoftEther? My configuration: SoftEther 3.4.0 x64 for Linux (32-bit OS)
VirtualBox 5.0 Windows 7 (32-bit). I followed all of these steps and no luck. As I know SoftEther is only available in .deb package.
You can try if the rpm version you got from your vendor works -. Install this one : and do a test after install: if the new SoftEther instance has the correct IP range: 127.1, then use the following command and report what is its error: sudo /usr/local/szsoftether. Note that the instance can crash on startup even if it correctly got its right IP range. Therefore, always make a quick look on error or logs.
Then do a backup of the config.h file, that can be found under /usr/local/szsoftether/. Open a console (not root one!) and type the following (use copy paste, no space or symbol): sudo touch config.h && sudo nano -w config.h
Edit the config.h file and remove lines #define MAXIPADRTIMER 10 (for the same reason ie to avoid conflicts), add "#define MAXIPADRTIMER 40", and change MACADDRESSBYTES 64 to MACADDRESSBYTES 52, then copy the backup of config.h that you saved from before and save the final config.
Next go to the location of the RPM file you installed and type (use copy paste, no space or symbol) : rpm -i ~/Desktop/SoftEther-3.0-for-Ubuntu-32-64.x8664.rpm
Then type exit.
