(Grant, are you for sure saying you got the patches to go into 2.6.12 and compile?)


Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, I've had a VERY busy time.

I do not recall if I compiled or not for sure because I was doing *SO* much to the kernel in question and trying *SO* many different versions. Namely I was testing to see which patches out of the IPTables Patch-o-Matic would apply in what combination to a few different kernel sources. I had also had to apply a different patch to my kernel source b/c I was running it on a Cobalt RaQ 4i and had to fix the shutdown / restart issue with the watchdog. As such I do not remember for sure that I _did_ compile the kernel. Sorry.

What I DO know for sure is that I DID successfully apply the IPSec patches 1 - 4 after I went in to the info files and removed dependencies on previously patches. I was not able to apply patch #1 b/c it was looking for a specific patch (the name eludes me at the moment). I found the patch in question on the net in a mail list archive from the original author of the patches. When I got to looking the (missing) patch was already in the mainstream kernel and thus was not available for patching. So I removed the dependency on it for the IPSec-01 patch. Once I had removed the dependency I tested the IPSec-01 patch and it did apply cleanly. Once the IPSec-01 patch was in place patches IPSec-02 and IPSec-03 applied cleanly. The IPSec-04 patch did not want to apply stating that it was dependent on the IPSec-03 patch. Having just applied the patch that IPSec-04 wanted I knew that it was there so I removed the dependency in the info file and was able to apply the IPSec-04 patch with out any problems at all. The only thing that I could find wrong with the four IPSec patches was the dependency tree checking. Not being a real programmer (I just hack things together when I have to) I don't know how to fix what is wrong, that is for others to do.
