[ale] PPTP tunnels for linux/windows/mac...

[Robert L. Harris]

Many thanks for the info and link.  I'll talk with the guy doing the
testing and see if he dropped the ipsecx before downing the interface.

Thus spake James P. Kinney III (jkinney at localnetsolutions.com):

> The interface for freeswan (ipsecx) needs to be stopped before the ethx
> interface gets stopped. It will hang networking otherwise.
> 
> Don't mess with the freeswan on 2.6-pre kernels. They either don't build
> properly (and hang and crash) or the won't build properly (and the
> compile fails). This is as of releases about 1.5 weeks ago. 2.4.21
> kernel is the last WORKING version of freeswan I've been able to build
> and use.

> The freeswan mailing list is more down than up. It seems to move around
> randomly. I've been on it for about 3 years. Sporadically, I get stuff,
> see nothing for months, rejoin, get stuff for a while, then it dies
> again.
