Hi,
So, I was hoping to get FreeS/WAN to compile as a module and add it to one
of my kernels.
I then realized that I had to patch my kernel. Would have been easier with a
real patch instead of the dreadful makefile and patch process which dies if
anything doesn't patch perfectly.
After the pain of working around it, I eventually got the compile to bomb at
the end (fs 1.91 and 2.4.17).
After the pain of working around it, I eventually got the compile to bomb at
the end (see failure at the end of the message)
So, I looked around and found cryptoapi.sf.net which had the goal of making
crypto a module in an existing kernel.
While it doesn't include FS, I did find a promising freeswan-import.sh
script which seems to convert the FS patches into a real patch that I can
just apply.
However, I don't think it's going to make FS 1.91 work any better if it
fails to build now, but if I like the features offered by cryptoapi, and
wouldn't mind having them in addition to FS (I can't tell if it makes FS
share the cryptoAPI code or if they each have their own).
I guess my main question is can I get FS to work with cryptoapi 2.4.7.0, and
linux 2.4.17? If so, which version of FS should I try to patch?
Can I try to use the freeswan-import.sh script?
Thanks
Marc
