Hi all,

I'm at why wits end here.  I have a Sun Sparc 20 SMP (sun4m) loaded with SuSE 
linux 7.3 and I've upgraded the kernel to 2.4.20pre-9.  I'm trying to get 
freeswan to work so that I can configure vpn with a friend of mine to see how 
it all works.

The problem that I'm running into is that the freeswan kernel modules that come 
on the cd are for the 2.2.x series of kernels.  I thought that I could download 
the source rpms from freeswan.org since they have SuSE src rpms there, but 
whenever I compile them, they compile just fine, but on installation of the 
freeswan rpm, they all lock up in the same place, when it's running 
the /usr/lib/ipsec/rsasigkey to generate the ipsec.secrets file.  I thought 
that maybe the sparc machine was a little slow, and it just needed, a bit of 
time to do all the number crunching.  But after letting it run all night, and 
still stuck at the same place, I've come to the conclusion that this isn't the 
case.

Has anybody gotten freeswan to compile and work on a Sun Sparc 20 with a 2.4.x 
kernel, or am I going to have to resort to using a 2.2.x kernel and going back 
to ipchains or put an x86 version as the firewall?

Ed
