FarSync Drivers

Swapping WAN/OEM Driver

If you have installed the wrong driver, for example if you installed the OEM version when you really needed the WAN version, then switching between the driver versions can be achieved by uninstalling and then re-installing the driver required, for example to swap from the OEM driver to the WAN driver

./uninstall
./install wan

Or to swap from the WAN driver to the OEM

./uninstall
./install oem

If you wish to preserve the configuration files, then please copy them from the configuration directory (/etc/farsync/farsite) to somewhere else.  It may be possible to re-use the configuration files in the other driver as follows:

Note that some configuration options may be lost, e.g. the Frame Relay protocol cannot be used.
