re: freeswan 2.00 on bob - redhat 8, patched kernel 2.4.20-13.8


hi all,

hopefully a simple question



+-----+                          +------+
|alice| ------------------------ | bob  |
+-----+                          +------+
192.168.0.10                     192.168.0.1

actually, i found that configuring ipsec for a complicated setup is easier than this 
one ;-)


alice is a workstation(s) on a subnet connecting to bob (a server) for
various ip services (web, smtp, etc.) -- note that bob is not connected
to the outside world and has no default route.


bob wants alice to encrypt her communications to him with ipsec. bob's
an idiot, and has read the howto's over an over, and cannot make it
work. so far, bob has:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] cat /etc/ipsec.conf
version 2.0

config setup
        interfaces="ipsec0=eth0"



and bob has his dns correctly configured for himself as well as alice:

what configurations whould bob and alice have so that alice encrypts to
bob without fail?

thanks!!!!
