Hi Roger ,

Thanks for replying. 

1. How do I compile the code on the xp machine?

2. Will mosquitto work on my Synology NAS DS412+ ?

Regards,

Neil Wrightson.

This should be "just" a case of recompiling on Windows XP. I don't
have access to a Windows XP machine so can't do this.

It should just work, assuming you don't want authentication.

No, it just needs to be referred to correctly in the config file.

No, you must use mosquitto_passwd to create the password hashes. (or
you could always modify the source to assume unhashed passwords)

Roger
