This allows embedding WireGuard as a service inside of another application. Build tunnel.dll
by running ./build.bat
in this folder. The first time you run it, it will invoke ..\build.bat
simply for downloading dependencies. After, you should have amd64/tunnel.dll
, x86/tunnel.dll
, and arm64/tunnel.dll
. In addition, tunnel.dll
requires wireguard.dll
, which can be downloaded from the wireguard-nt download server.
The basic setup to use tunnel.dll
is:
Service Name: "WireGuardTunnel$SomeTunnelName"
Display Name: "Some Service Name"
Service Type: SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
Start Type: StartAutomatic
Error Control: ErrorNormal,
Dependencies: [ "Nsi", "TcpIp" ]
Sid Type: SERVICE_SID_TYPE_UNRESTRICTED
Executable: "C:\path\to\example\vpnclient.exe /service configfile.conf"
Some of these may have to be changed with ChangeServiceConfig2
after the
initial call to CreateService
The SERVICE_SID_TYPE_UNRESTRICTED
parameter
is absolutely essential; do not forget it.
if (wargc == 3 && !wcscmp(wargv[1], L"/service")) {
HMODULE tunnel_lib = LoadLibrary("tunnel.dll");
if (!tunnel_lib)
abort();
BOOL (_cdecl *tunnel_proc)(_In_ LPCWSTR conf_file);
*(FARPROC*)&tunnel_proc = GetProcAddress(tunnel_lib, "WireGuardTunnelService");
if (!tunnel_proc)
abort();
return tunnel_proc(wargv[2]);
}
There is a sample implementation of bits and pieces of this inside of the csharp\
directory.
