Hello again,
I have implemented a fix for this (see attached), feel free to modify it and/or use it as you see fit.  I made the variables that hold the username and password global, and created Booleans to indicate whether the data has been acquired already.  I apologize if this is the improper method for submitting changes, I'm a newbie. :)
Thanks for the help, hope this helps someone in return.

Subject: [Openswan Users] Renegotiation failure


Hello,
I am using the line 'ipsec whack --name IPSecTest --xauthname <username> --xauthpass <password> --initiate' to bring up my IPsec tunnel and authenticate against a Radius server.  I am getting this message when it attempts renegotiation:

"XAUTH username requested, but no file descriptor available for prompt"

Is there a fix for this?

I'm running Linux 2.6.14.4, Openswan 2.4.4.

TIA,
John
