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. =20

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.=20

Hello Everyone,=20

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.=20

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. =20

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?=20

Would you be interested in doing a little consulting work to help me
complete my process?=20

Once I get this working, I would be happy to make a presentation to the
group on setting this up.=20

Thanks.=20
