One quick followup question.

I was able to get all of the IP level VPN stuff set up, just by putting
the correct entries in /etc/ipsec.conf (and enabling the right programs to
run at boot time). Is it possible to achieve the bridging level (layer 2)
functionality with just entries in ipsec.conf, or do I still have to do
all the things I was doing outside it?

I suspect the later based upon the brconfig man page, but I'd like to
confirm this.
