I had no idea what this was, but gave it a go. Well on Fatdog anyway. No way of downloading the binaries directly, so compiled from source. Took a while, but a lot of that time is tests being run.
I had to install resolvconf (package is openresolv).
Also need to create /dev/tun:

Code: Select all

cd /dev
mkdir net
mknod net/tun  c 10 200
chmod 0666 net/tun
This is not permanent (disappears after a reboot) so I put the above in a script.

Had to add 'name_servers=127.3.2.1' to etc/resolvconf.conf and
'nameserver 127.3.2.1' to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf.
Not sure what is actually needed, but it seems to work.
Just comment out existing entries, as you will need to re-instate them once you have finished with lokinet. At least that is what I have had to do.

Start lokinet, run lokinet-bootstrap, then restart.
May have to run resolvconf -u as well.
It is quite slow and I have only managed to connect to two of the example links from the website, and even this is inconsistent. Often it will not connect at all.
