Re: Transport Mode ipsec(4) and inet6(4) gre(4)
I haven't looked if we have support, but gre(4) w/ ipv6 address and stf(4) seem to be best options out there for secure v6 tunnels. That sounds... bizarre. According to ipv6book.ca, M. Blanchet. It's a good read, except OpenBSD/NetBSD are neglected (probably becase of the stf(4)/6to4(4) absence). He also doesn't talk about _securing_ GRE tunnels, altough the logical assumption would be transport mode ipsec between v4 endpoints ~BAS

Anyone can implement it in glibc. But applications must be changed anyways to use it. -- http://www.felipe-alfaro.org/blog/disclaimer/
Re: Running another OS under OpenBSD
Every non retarded app uses it. glibc has not support for it because it wants to make stupid better. glibc is a total dissaster; I can't remember seeing much worse code.
