Reminds me of a question:
as far as i know the mac osx ipsec-client is kame-based, and the source is
closed?
Patching OpenSwan or StrongSwan (preventing checks of the opposite ipsec-
peer, workarounds for a not RFC-compliant ipsec-setup) was the only way to
get a working ipsec-client at my workplace.
Smartcards needed for authentication can also be added to mac osx infra-
structure, but changing the ipsec-code is not possible since the code is
closed.

Has someone seen other ipsec-clients for the mac?
