Hi all

Any one configured IPSec. Now I am using redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7-10. 

How can I configure IPSec in my system. which option I will enable in my kernal source?. What are the configuration files for ipsec?. Using this how can i create encrypted tunnels(vpns)? Can any one help me regarding this.

Thanx in Advance.

Even I've been trying to get it to work.

But the starting steps ( perhaps, just one of many possible ) are:

1] Get Free/SWAN ( freeswan.org ) 2] Configure/compile ( it patches the kernel if you compile it, but, iirc, it has binaries for RH specific kernels, as modules ) 3] Configure the ipsec.conf files ( this is where I am stuck ).

4] Teel us if you move till/ahead of this point! ;-)
