You are mixing up different things. My "political" decision was to not bring up any time to implement PSK authentication for IKEv2, as PSK authentication with passwords is a bad idea. It is discouraged by the standard, and EAP with server certificates is a perfect replacement. Almost no one uses IKEv2 PSK with user password in practice. Since version 1.3.1, the plugin supports PSK for IKEv2 nonetheless with some restrictions, even if we think that is just a bad idea to use that. Not supporting IKEv1 is another story; the plugin was implemented when IKEv1 was not part of the new strongSwan architecture. And until now just nobody implemented IKEv1 in the NM plugin... > Even today in 2017 my IT dept has set up their VPN with IKEv1 and an > 18-char PSK. We are aware that XAuth/PSK is still a common setup, and unfortunately it is best (stupid) practice. If you share that whatever-strong PSK among users, any user can impersonate the server, and easily intercept your user password used in XAuth. If you use distinct PSKs for each user, you most likely need Aggressive Mode. Beside the not often supported XAuth Hybrid Mode, IKEv1 is just not well suited for remote access. None of the authentication schemes is practical and secure. IKEv2 is in many ways superior, and that is why your IT dept should consider supporting it. > By all means make it impossible for your SERVER to have a stupid > config, but clients rarely have a choice over the setup they're > connecting to. This is why we support the Aggressive Mode/PSK as a client in our daemon. But just nobody stepped up to extend the NM GUI to configure it.

[Bug 1578193] Re: cannot load legacy-only plugin
Andrian, the fact that libreswan is not available as a plugin to NetworkManager has nothing to do with any kind of decision. It simply wasn't done because nobody took the time to package it and make it available. It *IS* the preferred option for newer NetworkManager versions, but a lot of things are dependent on having people spend the time and effort to make it available. If things are important to you, it is always a good idea to file the bug reports early and take the steps to make things available, since it's not feasible for the relatively few developers in Ubuntu to be on top of everything. I'm a little surprised myself that network-manager-freeswan isn't available already (neither is it in Debian from the look of things). It may be possible to make it available in the supported releases via backports; someone will need to spend the time to prepare the packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578193 Title: cannot load legacy-only plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1578193/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

> It appears that upstream 1.3.1+ plugin requires "Strong" secrets The bug report referenced relates that the decision to not support PSK (or IKEv1) in the StrongSwan NM plugin is a "political decision". In 2010. It's still a dumb one. Even today in 2017 my IT dept has set up their VPN with IKEv1 and an 18-char PSK. Which means I can't even use the command-line version of StrongSwan because the "political decision" is baked into the VPN daemon. By all means make it impossible for your SERVER to have a stupid config, but clients rarely have a choice over the setup they're connecting to. Conversely the No.1 complaint I hear about StrongSwan server is that it's hard to set up - I concur, having had to do it myself. But that's by the by here. This means there is currently _no_ NetworkManager VPN client for Ubuntu that supports IKEv1 ; you have to resort to the Shrewsoft client, which doesn't play well with other clients, doesn't play well with NetworkManager or it's captive dnsmasq instance. Is it useful to continue to use the output of a project that allows "political decisions" to get in the way of actually being useful to the greatest number of users? I would argue that the choice of StrongSwan over LibreSwan here is harming adoption of Ubuntu in the enterprise (presuming, that is, that LibreSwan has no such political opinions baked into it and you can actually use it's NM plugin to connect to most VPNs). If LibreSwan is good enough for RedHat and the GNOME team maintain a NM plugin for it (as they do), would that not be a better choice for Ubuntu? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578193 Title: cannot load legacy-only plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1578193/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for the patch and sorry for the delay. We're making an effort to clear out languishing items in the sponsorship queue today. Zesty currently ships network-manager-strongswan 1.4.1-1 so I presume this is now fixed in Zesty? Could someone please confirm before pushing SRUs? For Xenial and Yakkety, the proposed fix sounds mostly OK (I haven't looked in detail) but the bug needs SRU information and the patch updated for SRUs. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure for details. I'm trying to get an initial response to as many outstanding requests today as I can, so I'll move on for now. But I'll mark this as one to come back to if we have time today.

[Bug 1578193] Re: cannot load legacy-only plugin
Hi all. I've played around with Ryan's PPA to get the strongswan connection to my work place working under Mint 18 (xenial). Here are my observations based on a fresh Mint 18 install, after doing all updates and upgrades that were available. The following works to get my connection running: 1. Get the company .crt and import it to my keychain (I chose always to unlock it when prompted) 2. sudo apt-get install libstrongswan strongswan strongswan-charon strongswan-libcharon strongswan-starter libstrongswan-extra-plugins libcharon-extra-plugins libstrongswan-standard-plugins network-manager-strongswan 3. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:raharper/bugfixes 4. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade 5. Set up the VPN via the network manager. I enter the IP, my EAP username and password (I chose to store for all users). I checked "Request an inner IP address", and I provided an additional DNS server and search domain. After this, the connection works. However, updates to strongswan are available now, since some packages are still version 5.3.5-1ubuntu3. If I choose to update strongswan at this point, it will result in the removal of libstrongswan-standard-plugins and libstrongswan-extra- plugins, because they have unmet dependencies. I managed to install those dependencies doing the following steps: 1. wget http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/iptables/libip4tc0_1.6.0-4_amd64.deb 2. wget http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt20/libgcrypt20_1.7.3-2_amd64.deb 3. sudo dpkg -i libip4tc0_1.6.0-4_amd64.deb 4. sudo dpkg -i libgcrypt20_1.7.3-2_amd64.deb 5. sudo apt-get -f install 6. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade This upgrades everything to 5.3.5-1ubuntu5, but the VPN will not connect still.

The attachment "network-manager-strongswan_1.4.0.debdiff" seems to be a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. If the attachment isn't a patch, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are member of the ~ubuntu-sponsors, unsubscribe the team.

I created a debdiff for the 1.4.0 upgrade. Please note the following tho: NetworkManager Applet 1.4.0 This version is compatible with current versions of NetworkManager. Also requires two patches to charon-nm that are not yet part of any strongSwan releases (9e74a0952e and f201d86deb). From: https://www.strongswan.org/download.html So we need to integrate the patches in the current strongswan version (and update it eventually).
