I tried to install the klips rpm and it needs ipsec-userland.  It is not
included?  I did a quick google... but couldn't find information.
Sounds like it should be part of the rpm.

[root at kirk rpm]# rpm -iv openswan-klips-2.3.0-2.6.9_1.724_FC3_1.i386.rpm
warning: openswan-klips-2.3.0-2.6.9_1.724_FC3_1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA

error: Failed dependencies:

You can build both as modules, so you can use the same kernel image.

CONFIG_NETKEY is the option for the included IPsec stack in 2.6.
CONFIG_KLIPS
is the option for the openswan IPsec stack for 2.4 and 2.6
