Bering is indeed modularized to that level. It requires ipsec.o (for ipsec) so I would recommend to bundle it with the ipsec.lrp package to avoid a few mistakes.--first let my apologize for my delayed reply, i'm currently out of town and my access is limited to the late evenings.I could indeed be wrong in reference to the bering specifics. I assumed however that it followed the same basics of the dachstein installations. come to think of it, there are some differences that you may need to reference. under a dachstein installation, you needed and ipsec enabled kernel, where as under bering, the ipsec.o module might solve that part of the equation. in that case you would need the stock bering kernel, then load the ipsec.o module (as part of modules.conf) and then load the ipsec.lrp for bering. try that and let me know your results. upon returning to houston i am thinking about upgrading to a bering installation for testing purposes, i'll have to keep this very topic in my mind as i change over...
For example I was assuming that the hierarchical order in /lib/modules was reflected in the hierarchy the modules were distributed, e.g. ipsec.o in the modules distributionresides in modules/net/ipsec, so in my first attempt I moved it to /lib/modules/net/ipsec on the target system. Insmod worked fine and installed it. Stopping ipsec removed the module fine. Starting ipsec did not work because the script expected ipsec.o to live in /lib/modules. If the module was packed with the rest of the of the software this would never occur.
Unless one packs the ipsec.o module into initrd.lrp there is IMHO not even a gain in valuable floppy space, because the modules.lrp package normally lives with all the others on the same floppy.
Thanks for the info and I might need some hand holding with ipsec.conf ;-)
