That's far better than PPTP, eh?

I haven't played with IPSec stuff very much.  I tried compiling a
FreeS/WAN kernel once, but I'm not sure it worked.  (Or maybe I got it
to compile, but I didn't have another host to talk to, or something like
that..)

Anyway, I guess I'm not the only one who thought it was annoying.  I
came across ipsec_tunnel the other day.  I haven't tried it out, but
it's supposedly much simpler to use.  It uses the cryptoapi system,
which I guess is a new version of the old international crypto patches
from kerneli.org.
