[Openswan Users] Routing between tunnels

Hi everyone,

I have 2 windows XP clients (laptops) and one OpenS/WAN 2.3.1 gateway. I 
have created a tunnel (roadwarrior connection) from each client to the 
gateway and everything works fine.


client A (WindowsXP)---------------Gateway G (OpenS/WAN)--------------- 
client B(WindowsXP)

Now i want to exchange data between the two clients without having to build 
a dedicated tunnel between them; that is, i want the data intended  from A 
to B to travel encrypted via the following path:

       A-------------------------->S---------------------------->B
                 ESP packets                    ESP packets

and i want the gateway to perform the necessary routing of ESP envelopes. 
The problem is that this is not a classical routing problem since the 
gateway has to "route between tunnel interfaces".

Can anyone please help me?
