Thanks for all the ideas!
Now that there is an updated 2.4.18 kernel source in woody I can apply
the woody freeswan and grsecurity patches. The grsecurity patch had
one reject (I guess because of the PTRACE bugfix) but that was easy to
add by hand. Now it's up and running smooth.

Hm, should I file a bug against the grsecurity patch, because of the
reject with the updated kernel-source from security.debian.org? 
There is an older (closed) bug (#194523) along the same lines for a
kernel-source package from stable-proposed-updates, but nothing for
the more recent security.debian.org kernel-source.

 do you happen to have XFS patched onto that kernel? :) and what was the
 order of the patching? 
 I used to use wolk patchset, it contains both grsec and xfs.
Unfortunatelly wolk no longer comes with patchset so you must accept it
with all the bugs and non-server-grade code.

kernel-source 2.4.20 + grsecurity + freeswan

2003-06-06 Thread Vinai Kopp
Hi,

currently I'm setting up a gateway machine for a small office
network.  After the recent threads about rooted woody boxes I feel it
would be iresponsible to set up a box without a grsecurity patched
kernel.
The problem is I also need the box to be a VPN gateway.  One of
the reasons I got the deal was because I said IPSEC would be a good

like openvpn.

There seem to be problems using both the grsecurity and the freeswan
patches (at least I haven't been successfull applying the patches - I 
tried the debian versions and the official ones from the different
project sites of the patches and the kernel sources).

Does anybody have debian/stable boxes running kernels with
grsecurity and freeswan? Any hints/experiences to share?

Is there another solution I'm missing that you would suggest?

Google turned up plenty of hits, but I didn't find any solutions.

Thank you and best regards,

Vinai

You might want to have a look at adamantix.org. It is a woody based
distro with freeswan, PAX, and RSBAC kernel patches, plus all the
packages are compiled with the gcc stack smashing patch.

Hi there,

I have debian (stable) with a stock kernel from kernel.org (2.4.20) with
FreeSwan 1.99 and grsecurity 1.99h. Worked without a problem so far.
The order of pachtes was first FreeSwan, then grsec, if that makes any 
difference...

Good luck, Peter
