[plug] debian kernel 2.4.21 with freeswan 2.00 and herberts patch

[Adam Hewitt]

Hi All,

I am trying to get freeswan working with the 2.4.21 debian kernel 
(which Herbert backported the 2.5 IPsec stack for), and I am having 
some problems.

As far as I understand it I need to get the freeswan-2.00.patch.gz file 
from http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/debian/freeswan/

I checked the first couple of lines in that patch to find that it is 
looking at this file:
linux/include/freeswan/ipsec_kversion.h

I cant find this file anywhere on my system, nor can I find it in the 
packages.debian.org search engine.

Also, and I dont know whether this is important or not, but when I try 
and install freeswan 2.00 I get an error saying that it cannot find 
KLIPS in this kernel. I assume that is because freeswan needs to be 
patched before it can use the 2.5 IPSec stack.

Would someone mind giving me some idea on what I need to do to get this 
working?

Cheers,

Adam.
