Here are _working_ examples pulled from my testbeds for algo-0.8.0 (freeswan algo patch: AES, twofish, blowfish ... etc). They are focused on testing the new freeswan algorithms between these IPSec implementations. I tried to put all related config files (except FSW ipsec.secrets, partly because I'm too lazy too obfuscate it). The players are: freeswan-1.98b (FSW) + algo-0.8.x, openbsd-3.0 (OBSD), freebsd-4.5 (FBSD) and SSH Sentinel-1.3.x. : A B C D | 192.168.2.20 10.1.20.0/24 + + + + +----------------[ FSW uml2 ]============== : : : : | : : : : | 192.168.2.18 10.1.18.0/24 + : : : +----------------[ FSW uml1 ]============== : : : | : : : | 192.168.2.13 10.1.13.0/24 + : : +----------------[ OBSD ]============== : : | : : | 192.168.2.23 10.1.23.0/24 + : +----------------[ FBSD ]============== : | : | 192.168.2.61 + +----------------[ SSH Sent.] : IPSec links: A) ./freeswan-freeswan/ (uml1-uml2) B) ./freeswan-openbsd/ (uml2-obsd) C) ./freeswan-freebsd/ (uml2-fbsd) D) ./freeswan-ssh/ (uml2-ssh) Please don't bomb me with "Can't make freeswan talk to XXXXX", hope these configs help you a lot. Happy hacking =) --Juanjo
