[Openswan Users] Running Linux Openswan client.

[Gbenga]

Thanks Paul,

The L2TP server is xl2tpd-1.1.09. I downloaed it from http://www.xelerance.com/software/xl2tpd/, then compiled it with checkInstall for debian.

I have downloaded openswan 2.5.13 and will extract the working example config. I will report back.

Thanks,
Gbenga

In openswan 2.5.x you can find a working example of linux as l2tp client in testing/l2tp-01/
(same example should work with the 2.4.x code, it is just missing that testcase)

Are you sure this is xl2tpd and not l2tpd?
