Argh,
I've been up for hours trying to get ipsec working and I am going quite mad at this point. I am using gentoo-sources 2.4.19-r9. I had all o FREESWAN thing being compiled as a module. Everything would compile and install fine but depmod -a would complain about nf_hook and nf_hook_slow beiung unresolved. I tried this and that and finally figured out (it took hours!) that NETFILTER has to be disabled. Now this is contrary to EVRYTHING I read on freeswan online. In fact most people suggest having iptables compiled. To top this off when NETFILTERES is compiled /proc/ksyms reports that nf_hook is present, yet depmod complains. Now I have NETFILTER disabled, nf_hook is NOT in /proc/ksyms, yet ipsec.o now loads fine. This makes no sense to me. Could someone please explain, before I go raving mad from confusion.
Thanks,
-roman |

OK. Firstly I have netfilter installed, and I have compiled the module for FreeS/WAN, I have not yet tried connecting to another peer though.
Just for FYI - I'm using the vanilla sources, patched with the CVS snapshot of the patch-o-matic of 20030330
I then decided to ditch the emerge of freeswan-1.98b and went for downloading the source of freeswan-1.99 from the freeswan homepage.
By the way, release candidates for freeswan-2.00 are becoming available.
to compile I just did a make oldmodule which created the pluto ipsec.o module for my kernel. It appears to load OK and all my netfilter stuff continues to work.
Just though this might be a pointer for you. |
