Hi, I am trying to install ghostunnel on Windows 7. Can you please help me resolve this error? I am new to golang and doesnt understand what exactly it means?

Windows is not a supported platform. Ghostunnel depends on SO_REUSEPORT (via kavu/go_reuseport) and as such only works on Darwin, *BSD, and Linux right now.

Is Windows still unsupported now that kavu/go_reuseport#22 has been merged?

[csstaub]

I don't have any Windows machines to test on, but if kavu/go_reuseport works on Windows now then ghostunnel should theoretically also work.

[csstaub]

I updated all the vendored deps in the v1.1.2 release, so ghostunnel should in theory run on Windows now. Please file an issue if you still encounter problems.

Nvm that, there's other issues preventing it from working on Windows; namely that the syslog package is not available on Windows.
