The last time that I had check into installing FreeSWAN with Win2K the
configuration was not intended for road warriors. The IPSEC
configuration in Win2K requires the IP address be the same for each
laptop for all the locations that they connect (Static IP). The setup
is designed for fixed gateway to gateway connectivity. The IPSEC that
is in Win2K VPN Dialup connector is based on L2TP which was not
supported by FreeSWAN. The road warrior configuration for Windows is
done by using NAI's PGP VPN package with FreeSWAN.
This was about a year ago that I checked. I would love to know if it
has changed. I did do a quick search of the change logs for FreeSWAN
and didn't see any changes in this area.

Hello Everyone,
I am in the process of setting up a VPN to allow road warrior win2k
laptops to connect to our corporate intranet. Our approach is to use
FreeSwan's IPSec.
I d/led FreeSwan, installed the X.509 patch, recompiled my kernel and
feel fairly confident that the FreeSwan side is working. My problem has
been in the Windows configuration.
I follow various Howtos and create keys and install them but I haven't
been successful in getting the win2k machine to connect to the freeswan.
Is there anyone out there who has this working?
Would you be interested in doing a little consulting work to help me
complete my process?
Once I get this working, I would be happy to make a presentation to the
group on setting this up.
Thanks.
-Gordon
