Hello, While trying to set up an IPSEC Bridge based on the IPSEC instructions given on the BRCONFIG(8)man I keep getting this error on either side of the bridge.
# ipsecctl -f /etc/ipsec.conf /etc/ipsec.conf: 3: syntax error ipsecctl: Syntax error in config file: ipsec rules not loaded This is what /etc/ipsec.conf looks like on 192.168.1.23 cat# cat /etc/ipsec.conf esp from 192.168.1.23 to 192.168.1.25 spi 0x4242:0x4243 authkey file "/root/keys/auth_key:/root/keys/auth_key" enckey file "/root/keys/enc_key:/root/keys/enc_key" flow esp proto etherip from 192.168.1.23 to 192.168.1.25 This is what /etc/ipsec.conf looks like on 192.168.1.25 # cat /etc/ipsec.conf esp from 192.168.1.25 to 192.168.1.23 spi 0x4243:0x4242 authkey file "/root/keys/auth_key:/root/keys/auth_key" enckey file "/root/keys/enc_key:/root/keys/enc_key" flow esp proto etherip from 192.168.1.25 to 192.168.1.23 If I remove the entry "proto etherip" I do not get the error, however according to documentation the bridge will not use IPSEC. I thank anyone for their time on this as I have successfully set up VPN as per VPN man page and that works, but would perfer to use this approach for this particular application. Thanks again.
