[Openswan Users] Openswan and Checkpoint VPN-1

[Norman Rasmussen]

I believe that if you have access to admin the CheckPoint firewall
that it's possible to set up an officially 'supported' connection.

http://wiki.openswan.org/index.php/interoperatingCheckpoint is a list
of articles you should read, in particular the pdf on the checkpoint
site.
