Hello Paul,

I've tried your suggest (I'm using 2.4.5rc5 vers), and it's working fine 
with a non smp kernel(2.6.9-22.0.2EL) .... :-D
With smp kernel(2.6.9-22.0.2ELsmp), we're getting always same issue ... :-[
During ipsec service start these messages appear on the console :
ipsec_aes_init(alg_type=15 alg_id=12 name=aes): ret=0
ipsec_3des_init(alg_type=15 alg_id=3 name=3des): ret=0
and afterward the system is freezed.

The changes we've made in spec file ,between the original fedora4 specs 
file and own, are :

root at ch-dev-3 SPECS]# diff openswan.spec rhel4.openswan.spec

[root at ch-dev-3 SPECS]#

In fact these are just the right directories def to get the kernel source.

Have you an other idea or experience with a smp kernel ?
