};

Global g;

Building QT6.4 on Windows for Android with OpenSSL and clang 12

My mistake was that while building QT6.4 on Windows for Android I tried to set OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR as an environment variable that doesn’t take an effect. Now I set it as an argument:

OpenVPN in a Docker container

Run a docker container:

export MY_IP=$(curl -s https://api.ipify.org)

sudo docker run -it --rm --cap-add=NET_ADMIN -p 1194:1194/udp -e HOST_ADDR=$MY_IP --name dockovpn alekslitvinenk/openvpn

or

sudo docker run -it --rm --cap-add=NET_ADMIN -p 1194:1194/udp -e HOST_ADDR=$MY_IP --name dockovpn alekslitvinenk/openvpn -v openvpn_conf:/opt/Dockovpn_data

to persist generated files in volume storage.

Type Ctrl+P then Ctrl+Q to turn interactive mode to daemon mode.

Determine its IP address:

sudo docker ps
sudo docker inspect dockovpn | grep IPAddress
