Notes |
OS X |
DTN2 from source |
We haven't built a convenient DTN2 binary package for OS X yet. Once built it is a lot like on Linux. |
iPhone/iPod |
DTN2 from source |
Phone must be jailbroken to load the software. Currently no convenient binary package available. No user interface available. |
Windows |
Bytewalla |
Modified version of Bytewalla can be run on Windows. No convenient binary package or user interface available yet. |
Symbian S60 |
dtns60 |
Dtns60 binaries are signed with an old certificate, so it is difficult to load on a phone. Currently released version does not support neighbor discovery. |
