Hi I hope someone can answer something I'm sure is quite basic. I am following the instructions at https://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/ch-vpn.html On setting up a VPN The part I am having trouble with is when it show the /etc/racoon/racoon.conf file. But it doesn't say whay you have to do with this file. When I bring up my connection ifup bicester I get RTNETLINK answers: No such device looking at /var/messages I see ERROR: failed to bind to address 127.0.0.1[500] (Address already in use). Mar 21 17:01:05 racoon: ERROR: failed to bind to address *.*.*.*[500] (Address already in use). Mar 21 17:01:05 racoon: ERROR: failed to bind to address *.*.*.*[500] (Address already in use). Mar 21 17:01:05 racoon: ERROR: failed to bind to address *.*.*.*[500] (Address already in use). Mar 21 17:01:05 racoon: ERROR: failed to bind to address ::1[500] (Address already in use). Mar 21 17:01:05 racoon: INFO: fe80::bcef:4fff:fe66:82ec%eth0[500] used as isakmp port (fd=25) There was an existing setup done long ago. How can I setup more than one vpn connection (manually as this is a headless server) or is that not possible ? Thanks for any pointers
Yes you can. Please use newer version of centos and strong/openswan. Eero 21.3.2016 7.05 ip.

I second Eero's comment, use a new IPSec daemon. Openswan was forked and became Libreswan. Paul, now a RH employee, was a main developer for the Openswan project before he and others created the Libreswan fork. https://libreswan.org/ EL6 has Openswan EL7 has Libreswan Racoon isn't all that fun to work with. If you have the option, ditch it and EL5 and move to a newer platform (preferably EL7 with Libreswan). On Mon, Mar 21, 2016 at 1:08 PM, Eero Volotinen <eero.volotinen at iki.fi> wrote:> Yes you can.
