What else are we missing here, btw?
I'm in the process of pushing out a patch which makes it use
FormatMessage() instead of printing hex error numbers. That's working
under Wine but I want to give it a try under real Windows with real
errors instead of just synthesised calls to
openconnect__win32_strerror().
I have certificates in my Windows certificate store — are we able to use
those yet? Do we need http://thewalter.net/git/cgit.cgi/p11-capi/ to
make that work?
We also need to sort out the MTU configuration issues. I don't think we
*can* set the MTU under old versions of Windows but from Windows 7 or so
we should be able to. OpenVPN just *queries* the driver and then uses
that MTU, AFAICT. Which is kind of horrid. But hey, Windows is.
