[Openswan Users] Which 2.6 kernel?

[Oliver Tomkins]

Hi there,

Been having a small but annoying problem.

Remote users seem to be able to connect/disconnect fine.

However, if the connection is left idle it appears to automatically 
disconnect and they are not able to reconnect until a reboot/restart on 
the ipsec/l2tpd server.

Following this type of disconnection I can also see outbound traffic 
(isakmp) from the VPN server to the client although the client has 
disconnected.

I'm using Fedora Core 4 (2.6.14-1.1656_FC4), Netkey and Openswan U2.4.4.

 From having a quick look through here it appears there are problems 
with the kernel shipped with Fedora and  I should use a vanilla kernel?

Is there a preferred version of the 2.6 kernel for use with Openswan?

Thanks,

Olly.
