DreamHost has installed Python 2.4.1. Somehow I didn't see it before. Default python goes to Python 2.3.5. Use python2.4 instead.

I decided to post some screenshots of OpenWrt GUI running on my browser. I didn't package it as .ipk yet. Screenshots are hosted on Flickr. If you want to see full-size picture (== undistorted by scaling), go to "different sizes" (it is in "Additional information" on the right side), and select "Large". Please bear in mind that this is the first cut without any niceties. I'll put some niceties in, but I want to have working functionality first.

Almost all plumbing is in place now. I am about to create wizards, which will allow simple configuration. I don't have IPKG management yet, but it is on my to-do list.

Upcoming wizards will cover typical scenarios first. After that we will see about complicated scenarios: separate subnets, un-bridged wireless, and so on. Of course, I want to have a firewall configuration generated completely on client's side. But the last feature is planned for remote future.
