The only prob for me is that it has to work with Checkpoint FW. I do
believe it is possible, but it will require some work... :-)

I can tell you that it works a treat.  I put in a 4 site VPN with
FreeSwan
a couple of months ago.  Windows boxen locked up behind Linux firewalls
communicating with each other over Freeswan IPSec.  Just make sure that
any circuitry in between  understands about protocols 50 & 51.
