Hello, the Shorewall documentation says in "IPSEC using Linux Kernel 2.6" that one has to apply patches to the 2.6.x kernel to use Shorewall and IPSEC VPN on the same box. I did this for the 2.6.11 kernel in March last year ... Are those patches still necessary for the 2.6.15.x kernels ? regards Jörg ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
