Hi Lynn,
I guess what I'm trying to ask is: Would the firewall allow the road
warrior computer (which has not been set up as an IPSec client) access
to the LAN...but I think the answer is NO...after all that's the purpose
of the firewall, right? Duh. But it seems like that's what the
documentation for FreeS/WAN implies when they talk about "opportunistic
encryption"...the firewall would TRY to establish secure communications
with road warrior clients, but if the road warrior can't (because it
hasn't been set up to do so, etc.)...then the firewall would give it LAN
access anyway. But like I said, that doesn't make sense at all because
it completely defeats the purpose of having a firewall. I think I have
that right, but feel free to correct me if I'm "off-base".

Thank you
Craig

P.S. Can you use the updated IPSec stuff for Bering
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/article.php?sid=47 with Dachstein CD?
