[Openswan Users] Hub and spoke routing issue when using Openswan

Hi Hiren,

Thanks for your answer.

I tried the configuration you suggested but I cannot get the tunnels to
establish if the hub does not actually own the subnet being configured in
ipsec.conf.

Is this kind of setup supported in Openswan? If others have this working
then maybe my issue lies elsewhere?

Thanks / Mattias
