Re: [strongSwan] Version numbers

That version number scheme is compromised of the strongSwan version (left part 
of the /)
and the version number of the *currently running kernel* (right part of the /).

The right part is of no relevance to the code run by strongSwan. It's a legacy 
thing.
You're strongly encouraged to switch to swanctl.

Kind regards

I've got two SS servers, one works, one sort of work right.

The working one runs "Linux strongSwan U5.8.4/K4.15.0-142-generic"

The sortof server is running "Linux strongSwan 
U5.8.4/K4.18.0-305.3.1.el8_4.x86_64"

What is the difference between the two versions? Is one 32-bit and one 64-bit?

Hi Dave,

both servers are running strongSwan 5.8.4 userland daemon but
the first one uses the IPsec stack of a Linux 4.15.0 kernel and
the second one the IPsec stack of a Linux 4.18.0 kernel.
The second server certainly is 64 bit but most probably the first one
is as well.

Best regards

Andreas
