The latter is more performant in most cases but there are some license
issues when using this library. It also needs more space when installed.

Installation
Getting the source via subversion:
----------------------------------
-svn co https://svn.chaos-at-home.org/uanytun/trunk uanytun
+
+svn co https://svn.anytun.org/uanytun/trunk uanytun
+cd uanytun
+
Building from source
--------------------
# ./configure --use-ssl-crypto
# make
-
Notes:
- try './configure --help' for further information
- if using openssl pre 0.9.8 you have to disable passphrase
# sudo make install
This will install anytun under the --prefix defined with configure.
-It also creates a user with name --username with home --userhome
-which can be changed by configure as well.
+
Uninstalling
------------
# sudo make purge
-This also removes the config files and deletes the user and it's
-home directory.
+This also removes the config files
+

+
+Usage:
+======
+
+init.d script
+-------------
+
+The init.d script can be used to start uanytun at boot time. It searches for
+configuration files which reside at $CONFIG_DIR. For each instance of uanytun
+which should be started there must be a directory containing at least a file
+named config. This file must contain all command line parameter which should
+be used when starting the daemon. One line for each parameter. Empty lines and
+lines starting with # are ignored. Besides the config file there may be a script
+named post-up.sh which will be called when the tun/tap device comes up.
+This is an example of how the init.d script can be used to start uanytun:
+
+# /etc/init.d/uanytun start client1 p2p-a
+
+In this case the script will start 2 instances of uanytun using the config files
+$CONFIG_DIR/client1/config and $CONFIG_DIR/p2p-a/config.
+If no instance name is specified the script will use the file $CONFIG_DIR/autostart
+to determine which instances to start or stop. This file must contain a list
+of instance names which should be used when no names are specified at the command
+line. One line for each name. Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored.
