I've not finished testing it, but I managed to get Freeswan (www.freeswan.org) running inside Woody recently. Relevant packages, some of which were pulled from sid: ii freeswan 1.95-1 IPSEC utilities for FreeSWan ii kernel-image-2 cae.1.00 Linux kernel binary image for version 2.2.20 ii kernel-package 7.76 Debian Linux kernel package build scripts. ii kernel-patch-f 1.95-1 IPSEC kernel support for FreeSwan ii kernel-source- 2.2.20-3 Linux kernel source for version 2.2.20 The kernel-image-2.2.20 is my own local build, using the .config file located at: http://www.cae.tntech.edu/~mwr/config-2.2.20.gz -- since I'm in the US, I most likely can't redistribute my actual kernel deb. One thing I ran into is that the standard Debian 2.2.20 config file includes enough modules to prevent simply adding Freeswan support on top of everything else. My solution to this was to uncheck all the SCSI support, and other hardware I wasn't likely to use in a Freeswan router. -- Mike Renfro / R&D Engineer, Center for Manufacturing Research, 931 372-3601 / Tennessee Technological University -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
