I have ported IPsec to Nucleus OS. I did not spend much time porting the crypto 
engine from OpenBSD kernel. That might be what you want if you just want the 
crypto part.

You could do the same wit OpenSSL of course but I would tend to think you are 
better off taking a look at OpenBSD kernel IPsec.

The entire source tree is available thro' web cvs , check out the website. Best 
of luck!
