Thanks!

I have also made it available at:

ftp://ftp.openswan.org/openswan/contrib/

I've tested it on openswan-1 HEAD (current cvs, which means 1.0.3) 

- I had to change the define for ipsec.conf, since we do not ship it
  standard in /etc/ipsec.d/ipsec.conf
- ignoring unknown keyword 'dumpdir' in config setup
- ignoring unknown keyword 'plutoload' in config setup
- ignoring unknown keyword 'plutostart' in config setup
- can't load config: bad addr leftnexthop=%direct [illegal (non-DNS-name) character in name]

I can see that plutoload/start don't really matter. But dumpdir would be nice.
And the "%direct" is also something that is unfortunately needed for some local
LAN connections in openswan-1. Openswan-2 no longer needs to nexthop settings.

Starting didn't load any connections.

It claimed:

Loading conn peace-bofh
Loading conn me-to-anyone

peace-bofh was on "auto=ignore" so it should probably say it skipped loading it?

The OE conn failed to load as well. When manually trying to --add it when starter
is running, I got:

# ipsec auto --add me-to-anyone
ipsec_auto: fatal error in "me-to-anyone": %defaultroute requested but not known

Stopping with service ipsec stop caused starter to say:

Apr  9 12:00:24 bofh pluto[19034]: FATAL ERROR: socket() in init_pfkeyfd(). Errno 97: Address family not supported by protocol

It kept running though.

On another stop (now with --debug) I got:

FATAL ERROR: socket() in init_pfkeyfd(). Errno 97: Address family not supported by protocol
child 19281 (Pluto) has quit (exit code 1)
pluto has died -- restart scheduled (5sec)
pluto refused to be started


The OE connection works without using starter.

Anyway, thanks for the work on starter!
