AW: IPSEC and PPTP

["Grischa Schuering" <schuering@inity.de>]

Thanks a lot.
I basically understand now what to do.
 
I tried to build my own 2.4.18 kernel with make-kpkg --make-menuconfig --revision=2.4.18-fwipsec.1.0 kernel_image.
Everything seemed fine so far, but when installing the kernel image (ln -s /boot/vmlinuz.new vmlinuz), lilo, and restarting, the kernel is tried to be loaded by lilo but then suddenly resets the machine (after the points are being displayed).
 
What could be th prob?
 
Is ist that the kernel I build is not worling properly or
does it have to do anything with my old kernel set up by initrd (what is it anyway)?
 
Any ideas ?
 
Thanks,
 
Grischa
BTW: How do I tell Lilo to let me choose e.g. by a boot menu which kernelimage to boot from?

	Hi. What you need is:
	
	http://www.freeswan.org/
	
	or just apt-get
	
	freeswan - IPSEC utilities for FreeWan
	kernel-patch-freeswan - IPSEC kernel support for FreeSwan
	
	Quite simple setup.. It's all there, manuals and stuff.
	
	Works for both network<->client and network<->network setups.
	
	I have used it for over 2 years w/ no problems. Stable as a rock.
	
	Regarding pptp.
	
	You want to connect your XP to a linux firewall, to get inside?
	
	pptpd (PoPToP) .. work well.
	
	
	Regards,
