"ipsec between freebsd and openbsd" didn't turn up anything on Google directly related to what you seem to want to do (at least for me), so I guess you'll have to look at the FreeBSD side of things:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ipsec.html http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/12/26/FreeBSD_Basics.html They seem to mention the use of the gif(4) interface a lot for VPNs between two FreeBSD machines, but I believe you can still make a FreeBSD VPN without it, so I think you'll want to forgo its use if you'll be connecting to an OpenBSD box. I've done FreeBSD <--> FreeBSD and OpenBSD <--> OpenBSD VPNs in the past, but I don't recall ever doing FreeBSD <--> OpenBSD. After seeing how easy it seems to be to make an IPsec VPN using OpenBSD's 'ipsecctl' from the article you mention, I'm guessing the harder part will be the configuration of the FreeBSD side with Racoon, setkey and such. Good luck, -Martin On 10/2/06, kintaro oe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
