[Openswan Users] Openswan configuration

[Ankit Parikh]

Hi,

I am using RHEL 5.

Yesterday, I was configuring Openswan 3.0.06 on my system. I got few errors,
which I solved with the help of Paul. Thanks Paul.

Basically, I did make programs and make install

Now, as per the INSTALL file, it cites that I need to do make
KERNELSRC=/lib/modules/'uname -r'/build module minstall

This is giving me a lot of errors. Here is what I got, when I entered the
above make:


root at localhost openswan-3.0.06]# make KERNELSRC=/lib/modules/`uname
-r`/build module minstall
which: no git in

make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/openswan/openswan-3.0.06'
make: *** [module] Error 2


Also, I read the README, which says that I need to install a new kernel, but
I already have a 2.6.18, which is default kernel of RHEL 5. So, do I need to
build it again? I am not sure because, one of the lines in the README says
this:

make nattpatch | (cd /usr/src/linux-2.6 && patch -pl && make bzImage),

but I don't have anything in /usr/src/. I think this means that I need to
install kernel or this command is not needed to configure OPENSWAN with
KLIPS.

Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you.
