RE: [leaf-user] Bering & NAT Traversal stuff
Hi folks, Thank you Alex for your input! Do I need to do a kernel recompile and stuff like that (it seems like I do), or do I simply download your kernel, the new IPSec.lrp package, necessary modules...and then substitute those in place on my current working Bering CD? Thank you!

Bering 1.1 should support NAT traversal, but there still seem to be some problems. I use my own kernel available on the page you referenced, and I have tested it successfully with NAT traversal, plus it includes some more stuff (ipsec algorithm patches and some netfilter things) > 2.)

I see that Jacques says "NAT-Traversal patch allows > FreeS/WAN to be used behind any NAT device by encapsulating ESP > in UDP.", That's the point of IPSec, secure connections to boxes behind firewalls. NAT Traversal is needed for this setup: Server --- Bering --- Internet --- NAT-box --- IPSec Client If your IPSec Client uses a public IP address, you don't need nat traversal. It doesn't matter if your Bering box does NAT for your server, as through the tunnel, you will address the server by its private address without NAT - Alex --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Does your code think in ink?

RE: [leaf-user] Bering & NAT Traversal stuff
Hi folks, Alex - One final question: Is there a .lrp package for the Super FreeS/WAN, or is it compiled within the kernel on your site? Is all I need to do what you mention, "You should be able to use the kernel, modules and ipsec.lrp on my page without a recompile. Don't forget to replace all modules in /boot/lib/modules (initrd.lrp) and /lib/modules (modules.lrp)."??? Thank you. Craig --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Does your code think in ink?

RE: [leaf-user] Bering & NAT Traversal stuff
Hi folks, Alex - So there's no "package" that I need I need for Super-FreeS/WAN?...it's already "included" (compiled?) within your kernel...is that right? Is there any documentation you can refer me to that would help me set up my Bering and take advantage of the NAT traversal? :-) Thank you very much!

For Super-FreeS/WAN, you need the kernel, the ipsec.lrp package and the modules, but not more. I might eventually rename the package and call it sfsipsec.lrp or something like that (I hate 8.3 filenames) - Alex --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Tablet PC. Does your code think in ink?
