FreeS/WAN

The FreeS/WAN team is proud to announce the arrival of 2.06, the project`s final release of its freely redistributable IPsec for Linux. Here are a few of its notable features, as documented in the CHANGES file: * KLIPS has been ported to Linux 2.6; please see the INSTALL file for more Details. * FreeS/WAN`s kernel configuration option, CONFIG_IPSEC, has been changed to CONFIG_KLIPS, due to a name conflict with 2.6 IPsec. This breaks "make oldgo" on any kernel version, unless a corresponding change is made by hand to the kernel`s .config file. * KLIPS modules generated for 2.4 kernels via "make module" are now created in the modobj subdirectory, instead of linux/net/ipsec. The "make minstall" target has been updated, but users accustomed to a manual install Take Note. * KLIPS now permits DNS packets out on UDP and TCP port 53. * All support for transport mode has been removed. Due to a bugfix which addresses a buffer overrun, users of past releases may wish to upgrade: * KLIPS code has been updated to avoid buffer overruns during generation of /proc file contents.
