Emulating Oz
« on: September 07, 2005, 03:57:30 am »
I want to try some configurations for OZ to check how well they would work and I am wondering if there is any way to emulate the OS in a Linux machine. If yes, how can I configure the machine? Any requirements? Or there is no way to emulate an OS written for an ARM proc. in a Pentium proc?

Cheers!

Check virtera.com, you can sign up for a free beta test of an emulator. At least you could some time ago  Mind you, it's slow, but probably it's what you want...

I mostly want to find a vpn client which could make a ipsec tunnel to the concentrator we use here, I was thinking about OpenSwan, but I will try some others if I can't manage to have it running

Anyway, I think that it would work compile fine under kernel 2.6.x, but I am not sure if it will compile or run under kernel 2.4. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
