I'm interested in testing the new version, although the problem I was suffering was a windows interoperability bug (Win2K Ipsec would crash pluto) which I reported to the Openswan list and was told it would probably be fixed in 2.3.1. I've built from the debian/ directory in CVS at the moment, but haven't tried it in a few weeks to see if CVS fixed my problem. I also had two 2.3.0 openswans talking to each other for L2TP, but I didn't see the crashing problem you've mentioned above (and which is to do with NAT-T if the 2.3.1 changelog is anything to go by), both using the 2.6 built-in IPSec stack for kernel support. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 8th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) [EMAIL PROTECTED] "No survivors?
