BID ACCORDINGLY! Project will be broken down into phases. This phase is simply to complete what was started. Later, once you have proven yourself, we will add another phase, then another. The previous developer was doing a good job but no longer had time to complete. The project is nearing going live so the timing was bad. I seek someone who will become the primary Windows developer, someone who knows how to work well with others as there are other parts to this and all need to work together. The project itself is rather simple. We are sending ping, traceroute and other data back to a central server so we can test the health of new private/public intranet/internet circuits as we install them. This is a test bed for a much larger set of applications. -Must be VERY good C++ QT developer for windows 7/8. -Must know how to convert Linux bash functions to C++ in our windows app. -Must fully understand installers and problems associated with securities. Our app requires that any non admin user be able to install. App needs high level network access for ping echos. No other high level access required. -Installer almost completed. Needs to be tested to work perfectly. During install, the user should be promoted to enter a temp name/pass. The installer will use these credentials to contact the server, and if authenticated, will continue the installation, otherwise, will terminate. Once installed, upon the first run, the app should generate its new name and password based on hardware criteria and send those to the server. -Main app requires the user be able to see app username in order to contact Support. Previous programmer was using task manager. If you could make this a regular task bar right mouse popup, this would be more useful. Need only to show status, running, not running and username. -Main app is to control a small tool which is being separately developed. The three main parts are process controller to start/stop/monitor the app, the main app and a small tool which uses the same credentials as the app to send/receive data from a central LAMP server. -Must clean up the current code, removing anything no longer needed, adding one or two small functions. The functions will be given to you as working Linux bash which you will convert to C++ QT adding into the main app. The person who does a good job to help get this completed WILL be asked for additional work and better pay will come once you have proven yourself. PLEASE, DO NOT BID unless you can show me a presence on the internet. If you tell me all your work was 'private' and you cannot show me anything, I cannot hire you. Show me your blog, links to some forum posts, your taking part in projects with other people, etc. If you can't do those things, then you are probably not someone I can hire. The application was written to work on win7/8. Testing has only started on win7. The code/compiler etc, are installed on a win7 box which you would have access to using TeamViewer. All work must be done on my dev server so that I can easily have small changes done, recompile etc, as needed. I also have a win8 dev server which we can test on. Estimated hours of work on this project would be approximately 30 to possibly 60. Pay would be in milestones based on hours and tasks completed.
