Things to do on the MetaNet

Implement DNSSEC

We need this for secure DNS resolution and key distribution

Implement IPSec

To provide authentication and security over the MetaNet, particularly oppertunistic IPSec requires DNSSEC

IPv6 Support

Configure IPv6 to run over the MetaNet and perhaps investigate obtaining some (real!) IPv6 addresses from somewhere

Things to do with the MetaNet code

• Configure/build
• BSD port

• Tidy ups:

  • Licensing/CVS tags in all the files

• Initscripts

  • Init scripts are "complete" for debian.
  • Gentoo? ebuild/init scripts needed
  • RedHat ones needed. (AlastairPorter has started this)
• Logging code will currently fail with an assert if an invalid log level is specified in the config file. All the config file options for logging should be sanity checked.
• autoconf(1) support
• Makefile should catch error conditions (eg. Bison / Flex not installed) and notify the user of the problem.
• Etud

Ethernet-Over-UDP

• run over IPv6

WANd

• re-design and re-write (see MetaNetDesign)
• Signed updates
