Hello, I'm using a 2 port version of this (Pro100S) card in my Oxygen based router. However, I rolled my own kernel/drivers from a (at the time) recent kernel 2.4.7. I needed support for the Cyclades PC300 as well. Since then I see somebody has made an LRP of the PC300 support tools. One of these years I'm going to migrate to Bering... The card I got has a 64 bit PCI card, but it works in my 32 bit slot. There is no support for integrating it's special features into Freeswan. And, as far as I could tell, no interest by the Freeswan team.
