FreeS/WAN is "orphaned" upstream. OpenSWAN is based on FreeS/WAN and as such it does not work with 2.6. I'm not sure but I think that Herbert Xu (Debian kernel maintainer) added patches to pluto (FreeS/WAN IKE daemon) to work with IPSec in the kernel 2.6.x Racoon is in FreeBSD for few years and is actively developed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
