Subject: [Swan-dev] hack for MS 818043 NAT-T Update

Is there a good explanation for what this is about?  Certainly not in the
code (which is where I'd want at least some of it, or a pointer).

I believe on rekey, it sent a bogus subnet or wrong type of ID.

<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818043> was released in 2003 and applies
to products that microsoft has obsoleted (WinXP and Win 2000).

Was the problem introduced by this MS patch or fixed by it?

It was introduced by the Microsoft update.

Is this work-around still a good idea?

Yes, there are millions of XP/2000 machines out there.
