Hi I hope someone can answer something I'm sure is quite basic. I am following the instructions at 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. 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.
