Ae you doing some work on the ipcec code? When I tried endian, I had problems getting multiple tunnels running. I could only get one of the four to start. I had to fallback to my ipcop install, but I would like to have the expanded features of endian without the outdated code in copfilter I had to use with ipcop.
